I am new to Real Tracks and I sure like them, but I would like to add to them. In particular, strings or the like. My question is: what is the best way to facilitate this? I know I can dump these audio files into Cubase and then put a midi track onto this. I really haven't done this, but I think I am technically adept enough to pull that off. What I am hoping is that there is a way to add strings to the real track ensembles that have been programmed already within BIAB. This would be, I presume, an easier way to do this thing quickly. Is this doable?

Jim,
Have you tried the SuperMidi Strings tracks? They are REALLY nice. And are no different than adding RealTracks to what you already have laid out in BIAB.
If you add the cello under them, it is a great sound...

You can also add tracks to the solo and melody tracks giving you 2 more realtracks, or as you said just generate different string sections with biab and put in Cubase to mix.

For me, it works best to move to Realband for this purpose. There you can add as many Tracks as you like. See video below http://youtu.be/KpBE5cHMoic

Yeah I think BB limits you on the number of tracks and IIRC you can;t add but one audio track....
So I would opt for using real band. Simply save and close the project in BB and then reopen it in real band. Midi tracks are opened and where it can, it will render the tracks using the real tracks.
Once that is finished loading, you are then free to add as many additional tracks from real band as you want or need.
I then take it a step further and export them into my Sonar DAW. That's where I do the work and the editing. However, much of that could be done in Real Band since it too is a DAW. I'm very familiar with Sonar and prefer to work in my comfort zone in Sonar.
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.
