I've used this trick of shifting the octave in the Channel dialog not to hear a difference, but to see a difference in the bsss part when I take it into another program.

The reverse also works. Being a treble clef-oriented horn player, sometimes I write my bass lines up an octave or even up two, then tell BIAB to play them in a different register.

It's wonderful having the flexibility to do these tricks.
