After running a BIAB tune through RB for a final production, is there a way to save:
1 with lyrics
2 with a count in

Are all realtracks effects frozen, I have a mandolin solo that I really like but it comes in with to much reverb and I can not seem to eliminate it using BIAB or RB, any ideas with this one?

Thanks for your help guys.

I have always meant to put this note here - this is the most helpful and supportive web site / software application that I have ever experienced. No other comes close and without a doubt it is due to a core group on here. My hats off to you all, your help is always greatly appreciated.

YEECH!

I can't believe it I have been meaning to leave this note about the excellent support for some time and here I finally do it and this message gets 90 views with no answers, go figure.

Anyway I have the count in figured out and it is being saved with the wav file. So the #2 issue is the one I am looking for. The wav file sounds so much cleaner after the mix in RB, but to use the wav file I am having to go back to printing the lyric and at times writting the cords on there (for any new song). Does anyone have a method to include the Lyrics with the wav file or a way of using the mixed RB version of the song with the lyrics on screen?

Thanks eh

Once you get to a wave file, there isn't really a way to save lyrics with it. MIDI files have hooks for programs like BIAB and RB that support lyrics, but wave, I don't think so.

However, all is not lost. You can create a Karaoke file. Using either wave or mp3, you can create a file that has lyrics next to the wave file in a final presentation which would show up on your screen.

Do an internet search for KaraFun.

I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!

Perhaps if your questions were a bit more specific you would have gleaned answers. They are a bit too on the generic side perhaps, too many possibilities there. How about giving us a step-by-step as to what you are doing and what happens when you do that?

As for the mandolin and reverb, try locating the root file of the mandolin in use in the realtracks folder and playing it back using the Media Player on your computer. Listen to see if the root file has that much reverb on it or not. If it doesn't, look for a reverb plugin in the host programs. Tell us the name of the root mandolin file so others can have a look and listen on their end.
