I export BIAB tracks to my DAW (Presonus Studio One 2), add live tracks and mix everything together.
However, I cannot export the 2 count-in bars. I normally use a-part and fill.
Anybody know how I can do this?
Thanks.

Yeah, but you may not like the answer .. Use Realband. Then you can render the Realtracks/Realdrums as part of the file easily. Open the file in Realband and then export the tracks from there (or use the DAW plugin)
May work better for you. In Realband the 2 bars of count-in actually get written to the file in a linear fashion (if I understand your issue correctly)
While you got it open, try adding your additional live tracks in Realband. It offers the option of regenerating existing or new parts (realtracks) while still acting like any other DAW for the most part.

Robert,
I take it that you are using drag 'n' drop. Is that correct? I regularly save my BIAB tracks as WAV files and then simply load them into my DAW. Doing it this way, the count-in is always present.

I just exported something yesterday from BB.... which I don't normally do. I normally open in Real Band and export from there..... BUT in this case, I wanted the exact track BB was using.
The track came out with the count in intact. Here's what I did.
I always create a unique folder for a song project once I realize I'm going to work on it to finish it.
So... from inside BB I clicked on the .WAV icon.
then: save all tracks as wave file (with options)
in the new window: first, click CHOOSE to select the file destination folder (in this case it was my song folder)
Then: click DXi- Direct render (save wave file) under this, be sure to check One Wave File Per Track to get each instrument exported as a unique wave. It will render a track for each instrument AND it also gives you one track with everything merged.
At the very bottom left, be sure to CHECK the boxes for 2 bar lead in and include drum count in sound
I ended up with the count in exactly at the beginning as I needed it... and it imported perfectly into X1 and once the temp was matched in X1 everything was lined up perfectly.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Regards, Noel I also drop and drag MIDI files in Sonar and the count in is always included in the track's transfer. It was a long time ago that I did this, but if I remember correctly, there is an option somewhere that allows the count in to be included. I am not at my music computer so I can’t look it up but later today if time permits I will try to look it up.
Doc-take it easy John this is just a sharp scalpel. It will not cut deep so don't worry. Me-I'm not John Doc-I know, I am!

H Robert,
Could you please give me a step-by-step description of how you get the tracks from BIAB to your DAW. I'll recreate the process and see if I can discover what's happening and what's stopping the count-in from being transferred.
Regards, Noel

Try this:
Under the BB Audio menu, select "Render to Audio File".
A Window of the same name should open.
Bottom LH of that pane, make sure the two Countin commands are checked to true.
"Include 2-bar Leadin" and "Include Drum Countin Sound".
Hit Close on that window and then try the drag 'n drop again, see if the countin is now included.
If that fails, there is always the Option menu, Return to Factory Settingw -- don't be afraid of this one, it often clears up problems that don't seem to have rhyme nor reason.

Not sure if this will help anyone, but as far as the count in options, no matter what settings you have, I think with Real Drums, if you want the count in you need include the Drums as part of the combo wave file you are dragging or exporting. Then the count in should be present. Otherwise the blank bars show up but with no count in.
