Somewhere down the track it's gonna need real time signatures. But for now they should be able to use midi without playing the 2 bars -1 and 0 but playing a midi count-in then start play at bar 1. You just won't have any pickup notes/lead ins. I'll look at it more tomorrow. Look at Reaper you can set it to count-in any time signature at any bar:

Hopefully that's being acknowledged by those who can deliver the goods.

Reaper is certainly well advanced. I'd just settle for BiaB to deliver a count-in that matches the time-signature of the first bar. Not a big ask, I would've thought.

I could make a simple GUI with Tempo, Time Signature and number of count-in bars and a start button or shortcut key to start the count-in then it sends "spacebar" to the Biab window. It could read the current tempo from Biab. It I could do that in a few minutes someone should be able to add that into Biab ?
I included the AHK script as well as compiled exe 32 & 64. If you run Biab as admin do the same with the exe, if you are running the script go to AutoHotKey install folder and set AutoHotKey.exe to run as admin.
Disable count-in see pic type tempo in then click Set Tempo type time signature the click Set Time Signature This works with the Windows audio device so if you have set your audio device to be "Always On" it won't work so un-check that in Audio Settings. Download Biab Count-In-AHK.zip.mp4 remove .mp4 from file name. EDIT: Updated for /8
This is very neat Pipeline, many thanks. Yes, it is a workaround that provides a solution and your efforts are greatly appreciated. Perhaps you could offer it to PG Music.

If you are running Biab As Administrator: To run script only .ahk install https://www.autohotkey.com/ and set AutoHotKey.exe to Run As Administrator To run .exe set to Run As Administrator
This uses the system audio for the count-in beeps so if Biab is set to use the same Audio Device, un-check the Always On in Device Driver.
This need has been around long before my first post here in 2013, and many other new functions that haven't been requested have been introduced since then. It's reasonable to expect, despite the potential difficulties, that it would be delivered by now. C'mon PG Music, "get-er-done"!
Thanks.

If the issue is fitting a click to the 2 bar count-in roll, why can't it just play the click then start from bar 1 or any custom bar number without playing -1 & 0 ? The same as the script I made to do this. The only issue I can see is it won't play any pickup notes in bar 0
