Well here I am being all glib again. There was so much wrong with that video it is hard to discribe. That is not the way the program is supposed to behave. Five minutes I will never get back again. But if Adar puts his eyes on it that is your best bet for getting it straightened out.
By the way, did you try my configurations for Reaper? Cause I see you have the Audio outs all messed up (IMO) which can be fixed in the configuration settings. I really do hope Adar can point you in the right direction.
Gegu, what version of Reaper? I don't have to go through much effort to load PG Music BIAB onto a track. It won't have any impact but you should synch the tempos. Have you checked the folder generated files are saved to? It may be going beyond it's nominated size...probably won't help either but worth checking. That was a lot of regenerating...I don't do any changes or regenerations within Reaper as I feel much more comfortable doing the grunt work in the main BIAb prog...but I understand it was to get you to the crash point. Don't worry about negativity - it's the change to Lake Michigan water that has seen the rise & rise of the curmudgeon estate.

Reaper version is 6.57 , but the problem exists also with another daw (Vsthost) , on two computers running Windows 11 (maybe this OS is more tricky about certain errors ?) ,and it can happen at the FIRST generation too.
Syncing the tempo before generating song does not help
I have checked disk space on both computers , it is OK
I have taken care to restart the computer before testing (but not always)
I am using the BIAB plugin as it permits to generate songs then play them without putting them on tracks (by just hiting the "play" button") , and I am using Reaperfor the jamtaba plugin (playing guitar on the internet live with an backing track fed directly by the BIAB plugin)

You can try it with Rewire, you don't have to use the Reaper script with it. Just load the RewireVST into Biab then select Reaper.
after a while I upgraded my BIAB 2022 with latest VST only to realize it is crashing my cubase 12 pro not loading songs which are saved in standalone BIAB??

It's best to start a new post detailing your specific issue. Piling one report on top of another means your report may not get the attention it deserves.
Check out +++ THIS +++ post and +++ THIS +++ post for suggestions about log files you can attach to your post that will help Adar, the main plugin developer, identify and fix the issue.
..You can try it in KV Element in Reaper load element as a vst3 plugin then drag and drop the BBPlugin into it, hook the in/out up then click the EXT top left to sync it.
VSTHost is old that's why I suggested trying in Element as this fixed all the crash problems I was having in Reaper, so I think it is worth a try. You can also try https://jstuff.wordpress.com/pluginflipflop/
Vsthost is a standalone like Reaper , I tried it to see if the issue is only with Reaper
Btw , with Reaper , I have tried a minimal project with only one track containing the BIAB plugin , same issue Another test was with Coyote VST (1.0.0.1) instead of VstSyntFont64 , same issue
Fwiw, the most common error encountered is heap corruption in the BIAB plugin
Would it be worth generating a song with only audio tracks (assuming that the synth vsti would be loaded but not used in this case ...) ?
