You can download and install the latest RealBand Build 5 from here: https://www.pgmusic.com/support.realband.htm#2019_5 Then with the program still closed, please right click on your RealBand shortcut and select Properties \| Compatibility \| check "Run program as administrator" and click apply. Then just double click on your RealBand icon to launch the program. Does this help with the problem? If it persists, can you relay the exact concise steps you are taking? Cheers, Deryk

I renamed DEFAULT.RWS DXiPluginList.ini DXPluginList.ini RB.CFG RealBand.INI to have a ".old" extension and moved them into a new folder called "Old". That forced Real Band to recreate those files. I updated the build to 5, did the "Run as administrator" trick you cite, and it still isn't working. From the Tracks window, I'm going to Ctrl.+F3: [img:left]https://photos.app.goo.gl/XV8qfTyE669brr9Z7[/img] I get the Import WAV file box: [img]https://photos.app.goo.gl/v5BtrTeGBsLSpkxc8[/img] Application error: [img]https://photos.app.goo.gl/mgmWHikZ1e2bcej37[/img] Real Band now frozen.

Your pop up shows a 35 second audio file but also shows a rather large file size. Or possibly the project is set to 16/44.1 and you are trying to import a much larger bit rate file .. something seems off in your first image Is this happening with one specific file? If so maybe try opening it and Save As to a different file name ... just guessing at this point; if the data is 35 seconds long, but the end of file point (EOF) is set to longer that could cause issues Maybe even open it in an editor and make sure the time span is correct (trim if needed) and then save it before trying to re-import it Make your sound your own! .. I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

I just opened it in a Soundfile Editor, trimmed some time from the beginning and the end, saved it as a different file name, and it still does the same thing. File is 00:26, but 19.7MB.

It also may be some security on the file that is causing the problem. My experience is that ripping someone's CD is problematic. ...Deb

"One good rule of thumb is that CD-quality sound currently requires about 10 megabytes per minute." Your half a minute clip should not be 19.7 MB IMO that's the clue to start with. Does it play in WinMediaPlayer? Others? Has it been scanned? is it a 24/96 file and not 16/44? You said you "ripped it from a lesson CD", so I assume the source was 16/44 What I notice in your original post is your Exception Stack: Quote: Exception stack Stack list, generated 5/26/2020 12:20:11 AM [0086A00A]{RealBand.exe} Unknown function at TMethodImplementationIntercept TMethodImplementationIntercept is likely a clue Make your sound your own! ..

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
