Hello to all in the BIAB Community...

Regarding dragging my tracks out of BIAB and into a separate folder:

My typical modus operandi has been to record all my desired real tracks in BIAB and then transfer them into a stand-alone holding folder I've created (I do not use MIDI files in BIAB). I then raid this folder from within my DAW to import my BIAB music tracks. (This may not be the best nor fastest way to accomplish this task, but it's been working well for me (until now) and I'd like to figure a way to stick with it...)

In the past (i.e. before updating to BIAB 2017) I would typically just drag my master button down into the .wav file box (see fig. 1) and then - after a few minutes - all the song's tracks would be individually copied into my DAW holding folder as .wav tracks. (I like it this way because doing it once beats beats doing it seven times)...



I've been doing this successfully for quite a few years now. But since updating to BIAB 2017 last month, I have not been able to drag the tracks into my folder as individual .wav files. Using the same process now gets me one mixed .wav file of all my tracks.

Figuring something had been inadvertently checked or unchecked in the BIAB 2017 upgrade process, I went into Options/Preferences/DAW. (see fig 2). Yet everything seems to be set as I've always had it set.



I've tried the BIAB suggestion (highlighted) that I hold CTL and SHIFT down when dragging the Master button into the .wav box to drag tracks as individual files, but when I do that the program won't allow me to drag anything down into the .wav box. The little drag arrow icon doesn't appear.

Perhaps something has changed this process in BIAB 2017?

As the obvious often eludes me, I figured I'd put this out there for the fine folk of the BIAB forums to comment upon.

Thank you in advance!
