Here's the scenario.

I write a song in RB. I go through it and apply effects, whatever those effects are. Then I export all tracks to wav files.



The minute you "export to ...wav" you are recording the track with the effect applied. The next DAW will have no idea what effect was previously applied as it will be dealing only with the wav file for a track. But you know this.

Now let me really stir the pot and then I will duck for cover. For god sakes If you are serious about your music, and I know you are, do your recording and mixing in a fully fledged DAW. The issues you are having would not be problems over in Sonar, Protools, Logic or Reaper. I love BIAB and RB has a place, but there is a reason studios use these other packages.
