(1) Well, I recorded one track (could have been better but it was acceptable) and then wanted to COPY it and PASTE it to another track (for 2 guitars, panned R/L sides). When I right-click on the recorded track and click on "Copy" I get the "From" and the 3 boxes to the right of it and below that the "Thru" and the 3 boxes to the right. The song is about 74 bars long but when I try to type in 74 there is a maximum of just 4.  What I did was just record another track because I was in a hurry to hear how it would sound like but for future reference would like to know how to copy a track and paste it to make a duplicate track without having to do a whole another actual recording. (2) How do I "Punch In" a solo? I know I could simply sit around recording a track and, when the time comes, simply turn up the volume and record the solo, but I want to do it the RIGHT way. (3) A Reaper question. I tried to drag some tracks from RB to Reaper but it seems that the MIDI tracks dragged over don't work on Reaper!! The RealTracks do but not the MIDI. What gives? (4) For the record, all I need to do is add some vocals now (and tinker a bit with the sound) and I've done my first ever computer recording, which I just found has me wondering (again). I like what I've heard and when I save it the extension is .SEQ. What does that mean? In fact, what does .SGU and .MGU mean? Do they designate that a certain song was saved from BIAB (like the .SGU and .MGU files) or RB (like the .SEQ file?) or??  Frankly, what I want now is to be able to make a listenable copy of the song and send it to my desktop. I know how to send stuff to the desktop but the .SEQ file isn't listenable. How do I make an MP3 out of .SEQ, or whatever I'm supposed to do?  Truth be told, I don't want to tinker/experiment with the song too much because I'm afraid I might screw something up and have to redo some recordings and I'm just ready to move on from this particular song to another one. (Oh, after I add the vocals and a solo of course). Which brings me to this:
