It is well documented that BA1 was never designed, nor intended for VM use. However, there have been many successful implementations of it on various platforms since. It depends on how well the VM emulates the BA1 “natural” Windows environment and is therefore, not a flaw in BA performance.

If you can get BA1 to work seamlessly with your implementation of VM first, then I suggest you bed that in, and then look at making it “discuss” anything with a Dante network after that.

I don’t believe that BAE can go any higher than 48k (so-called “DVD quality”), but I am seeking clarification of this.

I can almost guarantee that your stocking will go unfilled.
I happen to know that Leif is entertaining family over the Xmas period, so I doubt that he will even go near his office.

Once the family have departed in the New Year, there is some hope that his life will get back to “normal”.

Welcome to the forum and thank you.

Is it possible that you have the “what you hear” option selected on the Soundblaster? That will map the mic through to the output, and therefore into the BAE pipeline. Bottom line is that anything appearing in the output will be processed through BAE, so, either the SB, or Windows Mixer is blending the mic into the mix.

Thank you, MrKlorox! I had a feeling when I said before that I had no knowledge of command-line options, that I HAD read something somewhere about it. Well spotted.

Glad you got it sorted! I copied and pasted the code from my test program, so I was sure it should work, but the forum software tampered with my code.

If you are familiar with AHK, you could define some buttons to execute the code, and even interrogate the current status and display a message.

You just need two little batch programs.

Bypass_OFF.bat would have the following line in it.

REM Set Bypass Processing option to OFF
curl --silent --output nul http://{YOUR_PC_NAME_HERE}:8282/parameter/hd1/proc/bypass_proxy=0

Bypass_ON.bat would have this.

REM Set Bypass Processing option to ON
curl --silent --output nul http://{YOUR_PC_NAME_HERE}:8282/parameter/hd1/proc/bypass_proxy=1

If you are using AHK you could execute the CURL line using RunWait, like this.
RunWait, curl --silent --output nul http://OTSBOX:8282/parameter/hd1/proc/bypass_proxy=0,, hide

to get the current status is a little trickier, but you could use a command to write the status to a file.

	; Get current status of Bypass 

	FileDelete, C:\OtsLabs\BypassStatus.txt

    	URLDownloadToFile, http://OtsBox:8282/parameter/hd1/proc/bypass_proxy?get, C:\OtsLabs\BypassStatus.txt
    	FileReadLine, BypassStatus, C:\OtsLabs\BypassStatus.txt, 1

You could then test the value of the field BypassStatus. 1 = Bypass ON, 0 = Bypass OFF.

I hear all the doubters out there, and I have passed on this dissent to the Company. What you may not know is that Leif’s long-time business partner, Keith Edwards, passed away suddenly about a year or so ago. He was in charge of maintaining the website, issuing licences and upgrades, all of the financial management and even support for this forum. His loss was a major setback at a very difficult time in Leif’s career.

Keith’s son, John, has now taken over, but it has been a very steep learning curve for him, and things have had to be prioritised. I have drawn his attention to the fact that the BAE version available from the store is not the one that Leif updated because of the Windows update, and I will remind him again now.

As for Leif, I am in contact with him, but he is kept very busy with a personal AND a professional project, both of which are nearing completion. He will surface at some stage, but I wouldn’t expect much before Xmas.
