This question comes up regularly. You have to understand the studio recording process completely. When you open up another program, that program has it's own settings, synths, defaults etc. If you load in a midi file from Biab, the other program may be set up with a different synth. It may have default effects plugins active, all that kind of thing. If you're still convinced there's a difference (there isn't) then take just one track, save it in Biab and open it in RB. Both Biab and RB have the ability to insert DXi plugs at the output stage. If they're different in both programs, there's the culprit. Check all those things especially the Gain like Mac said. Just a couple of db difference in gain will fool you into thinking the louder track sounds better.
