I believe a rendered file is not able to use an external synth. Have you tried a real time recording?

As far as mp3, I render my songs to WAV and use an external program to create the MP3. Unless the appropriate MP3 codec is installed in Windows, BIAB uses a sub-par Microsoft version. It's more trouble than it's worth. As far as the levels go, I notice little difference in BIAB Play and a rendered WAV play. For my MP3s, I usually have to use MP3Gain Constant Gain to boost my levels. Normalizing gives undesirable results.
