Mac's right (as always)

The great thing with BIAB is that you can present it all in whatever way works best for you. You can give the band a karaoke track to stick on the player (CD/DVD/mp3). You can give each musician a copy of this in advance, along with a copy of their individual instrument soloed out, so that they can hear what you want. You can even give them the sheet music for it. IN ADVANCE. You can't just walk in and wave a magic wand and expect them to know how to play your music without at least having had one or two rehearsals before, unless it is dead straight (like a 12 bar blues with a twist). The only way you can do that is to karaoke it with playback (you still need to know what format they need it in first)

Remember to allow them artistic freedom - it won't be exactly as you created it. But that can be a good thing. Otherwise, nobody would need musicians anymore!
