That is strange. I tried several audio cards (some from 9 years back) everything worked.
Did you go to Audio(top menu)->Audio Driver/Settings->Audio Drivers and check that it shows the card you are using?
In that menu also check INPUT and OUTPUT so it is of same card!
I had a situation where it had input of one card and output of the other....
Good luck.

Blue Yeti Pro, Arturia Audiofuse, UA Arrow and of course onboard Realtec.
UA was giving me headache with BIAB, so I got rid of it. It worked, but I had to reset WAS/Asio and input/output (mismatch) of that card all the time.
Also thing to check, is default Audio Card settings and bitrate in Windows system.

interesting, thanks.
Blue Yeti Pro,
this of course is direct USB, Im not having any trouble with my audio technica USB either.
Arturia Audiofuse, UA Arrow
wow, never even heard of these! They look fairly
high end, though. How'd you even hear of them? They never come up in articles on interfaces that I read about.

Not sure how to check windows 10 audio settings. anyone? From there just verify that your current default soundcard playback and recording settings match up with what you are testing in BIAB. Click on Properties of the selected soundcard on playback and on recording and go to the advanced tab. This is where Windows defines 16 bit/44.1KHz, 24 bit/96KHz, etc.....

I use a Presonus Studio 6/8. Works great, sounds great. No issues with BIAB. How are you testing these interfaces and what do you mean by fail? It should work with any interface as long as you set it up properly.

This brings back to my main point. Why are ONLY 2
brands seemingly working? That is not what I said. I said that these brands are the most popular. They have very good mic preamps and are very good bang for the buck. If the audio interface works well on the PC, in general it should work fine for BIAB. We still need you to define FAIL.

UAD Arrow is Thunderbolt 3 interface. Seems highly respected brand., I personally did not like it.
---
Arturia is a big name in synth world. I never owned anything by them except for Audiofuse interface. I wanted something portable, yet professional (prosumer). Audiofuse has two separate headphones outs with separate volume controls, so two+ people can record without the need of mixer., but most importantly it has amazing mic preamps. I had a Roland interface before, it was like a kids toy compared to audio quality / features of Audiofuse.

this brings back to my main point. Why are ONLY 2
brands seemingly working? There are way more than 2 brands working .. Focusrite 18i20 and 2i2, Delta 1010, M-Audio 24/96, MOTU, Presonus, Roland, Behringer .. I've seen them all work. Any issues are usually in the setup/use of the device. Next most common issue; system USB not up to snuff ..
Make your sound your own!
.. I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

It may just be something as simple as needing to adjust some audio settings in the program. As has been mentioned above, you will need to go into your audio settings within the program and set up your hardware so the program knows what it's looking for. If you want to shoot us an e-mail at support@pgmusic.com or post your audio settings here, we can always take a look at your settings and see if there's something that needs to be tweaked or adjusted.
Cheers,
Ember

Yes, and KGU, will you please edit your title to this thread? ALL CAPS plus FAIL, FAIL is not a good look for something that is obviously you not understanding how to set up an interface properly. And again, we cannot help you until you define the word fail. Is it no sound, distorted sound, or what? Tell us exactly what you did and post screenshots of your config screens.
I also use the Steinberg UR22 MKII with no issues.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
