Got a head scratcher for you

Post by Bill McCloskey »

My band in a box is transposing everything down two steps.

I noticed it yesterday. I put a song on to practice, sent it through bluetooth to my speakers, and yikes everything I played sounded awful. I then realized instead of Dm, it was playing Cm. I checked it against my piano, and I also loaded the same song on my ipad in Ireal pro.

I tried resetting BIAB to factory settings. I rebooted my computer. Twice. When I played just a C chord through the computer, it was playing C. Then I loaded a song, ran it through the bluetooth, and I'm back to the same problem.

Any thoughts? Could it be the blue tooth?

It is the BLUETOOTH!

I just tried playing without going through the bluetooth and it played fine.

How can my bluetooth be transposing?

Here is the other problem. I can play via bluetooth from my ipad and it sounds fine. So it isn't the bluetooth or the receiver. It is something unique to the output of my computer
