John,

I understand BIAB is not a DAW, but there are still common ways of doing things. And there's nothing about having the option to assign a MIDI input to a track that would preclude being able to assign it somewhere else such as letting it thru.

And I realize much of BIAB goes way back. There's a balance to be struck with any software between keeping the old, that many customers are used to using, and updating to be more modern. BIAB is a great program in terms of what can be done with it. But it has always been unnecessarily difficult to use.

I've used it on and off for decades, but never got beyond banging in some chords and selecting a style, because it was so hard to understand. This time, I have committed to gaining more understanding and trying to make better use of it.

As with most software, I'm sure that once I know how to do it, it will be fine.
