Transfer it to Real Band and render the tracks into audio there. It will render them automatically when you load the BB file. If the style has a drummer in it, you should get the 1...2...1,2,3,4 count in on the drum track. It will be in the first 2 measures and the song will start in M3.

Use "amplify" or "normalize" or a volume envelope on that first 2 measure section to get the count in to the volume you need.

If the style does not have a drummer.... use RB to add one just for the count in and use envelopes to remove the rest of the drum track.

In BB I'm not aware of a way to add blank measures of silence at the beginning.... although someone else may know.... It is totally doable in Real Band or any other DAW.
