I have a real track song that I make edits to: I mute the guitar track, and add a little reverb on other tracks. I click "save" when I am done and close the file.

My problem is when I return to the song none of these edits are in the song file and I must repeat the process over again.

Am I saving the song correctly? I wish I could tweek each real track in this way and have the changes stay that way.

About the Mute, no, BIAB does not seem to save this setting (I wish it did). As a workaround, change the volume of that track to zero. This will save.

Take a look at the File menu, Save Special, Save Song with Patches and Harmony. There are several appropriate checkboxes. You can also Freeze one or more tracks (or click All). You will also see this menu as the second choice under the Save As icon.

Just a tip for next time: this Tips and Tricks forum is intended to give tips, not request help. Your questions will get better visibility in the BIAB Product Forum (for Windows or Mac, the next two underneath this one).

And not clear if you are talking about BIAB or RealBand, or how you are making the edits (are you doing it directly to the wave file or by using BIAB features such as the F5 key?).

If BIAB, then what Matt said. You might also consider freezing tracks once you get them the way you like them (and obviously before regenerating). How exactly are you muting the track? If you just select the mute setting on the track radio button (or in the mixer), that's not going to stay between sessions, and your track is going to come back. You should either mute using the F5 Bar Settings or as Matt indicated using the "Save With Patches...".

If RealBand, make sure you are saving as a SEQ file. That should preserve all your settings.
