Hi all,
I apologize for putting this here but the vst section is weakly populated and get rare answers.
I've composed an arrangement using BIAB.
Ready to play over it and record via Reaper, I opened the BIAB vst plugin (the one I open in Reaper is Biabi Vst3i which I believe is the one to use). Doing that BIAB vst screen opens up. I load my song and generates it.
Issue is when I play it through the BIAB vst plugin it doesn't respect at all my change of styles and drums! Like it keeps a style over what I had decided.
I went back to BIAB stand alone software and checked. I thought that maybe I hadn't saved the song the way I wanted, but no, all is fine there and BIAB on the standalone prog plays the song with all the RT and RD changes that I wanted.
But when I open it in BIAB vst plugin, all is messed up.
Please help! :'(

Hi, Although I'm not an Expert user (I'm sure one or more will weigh-in on your problem-request soon), it sounds like you're having the same problem I had with the BIAB DAW-plugin earlier in the year. I refer you to my BIAB DAW-plugin Forum chat (with experts) at this link: https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=539569#Post539569I just installed the new BIAB 2020 version an hour ago, so I haven't had a chance to use the updated DAW-Plugin, but I doubt if it will transfer an entire set of song tracks from BIAB to the DAW-of-my-choice, since according to the Experts that's not what it was designed to do. I hope I'm wrong-it would be a time saver if it did. Happy New Year!
Keep on Rockin'
Sonny Ray

How possible such issues with the vst plugin when you pay hundred of $ ? I don't want to only have a backing track software I can't do anything with beside jamming. I need a whole music recording software which work efficiently. Don't find acceptable to have such hassle. If a vst plugin has been created it should work flawessly. I'm really disappointed so far because if I can't export via the VST to my DAW it makes BIAB useless. Happy new year as well!  Angelo,
I replied to your other post in the VST forum.
Regards,
Noel Thanks Noel, will reply there. But so far the drag and drop of the Master freezes my BIAB with nothing happening so I can't even do that!

Angelo,
Can you drag a single track into Reaper (say the Bass track that's immediately to the right of the Master track)?
Regards,
Noel

Hello Noel, yes I can and as a matter of fact this is what I was telling you in the other post in the vst forum section before just reading now your message. I let you read my reply there. While it helped, this still sucks to be obliged to do that when we are supposed to have a plugin avoiding to have to do this the old way
