First thread is REVERB. Just installed 2014 and playback is super heavy reverb - compared to 2013 that I was just using this morning. Can't see where the reverb might be so high - it's on all audio in BIAB.
Mac, let me answer you reply first - found the reverb faders in the new mixer - set to 40 = that doesn't seem high. Knocked back to zero.
I did do a factory reset - but my ASIO driver is now really screwed up and just getting broken crackle in playback with a simple song - one realdrums part.
Mac: I re-booted my machine and started BB again - it crashed my box with blue screen of death after being unable to write to registry about BIAB file association or something.
It's a Win 7 machine with 8gig RAM and an Intel i7 core CPU (first gen.)
I have some real work to do right now - so I can't troubleshoot right away. Don't want to crash over and over right now.
Will try later this PM.
All system sounds are fine - I can record/playback voice with mic into Adobe Audition perfectly.

Tom, what directory have you got your BiaB installed in? Is it at the Drive top level \bb\ folder, or somewhere in \Program Files\ ?

I installed the download from PGMusic today and it was 379 on their servers. I will look for 380.
The lousy sound I discovered is from MIDI tracks. I had ForteDXI installed but looks like it stopped working (did I buy it a few years ago? I think so, but can't find registration) Anyway, I bought a new version to hopefully fix the MIDI sounds.
Realtracks appear to play - and sound good.
I also upgraded my ASIO driver to a newer version.
We're good to go.
Thanks for all the help. Even though I've used BIAB for over 10 years - this was the most difficult upgrade yet.
Hi Tom, Build 380 is a 'Patch' to go over the top of the distribution. There may be further patches in the future, and these are easy to apply. So it saves users having to go into an extended download option, just Install the baseline, then apply any updates if available. Cheers Trevor
