I'm a brand new BIAB user and I must say I absolutely LOVE the product. It's amazing just how quickly you can create a song that sounds like it was recorded with a group of studio musicians and not some computer program.

I'm working on a new, original song and I got the rhythm track down and it's sound really good. I found the "record audio" button and so I plugged in my mic and did a vocal track. I may be mistaken but it sounded like BIAB even did some really nice compression and limiting on the vocal track as it made it sound like it was a "part" of the song and not just a dry vocal track appended to a rhythm track. I ran into one problem, however, when I attempted to save the completed composition.

I saved the song and then I exported to MP3. Much to my surprise, the backing track was there but my vocals disappeared. I went back to BAIB and hit the <PLAY> button and my vocals were GONE!!!

I'm guessing this has something to do with saving the performance versus saving the track or something along those lines, but I haven't been able to figure it out by reading the manual.

Has this ever happened to any of you when you were newbies? What steps do I need to take to create an MP3 with BIAB 2014 that includes the vocal track?

Yours in the muse,
