That's a good point, MarioD. It didn't occur to me.

John,

In relation to lining tracks up, all you need do is:

(a) Set the tempo in Ableton exactly the same as in BIAB/RB;

(b) Keep in mind that, by default, both BIAB and RB will save a 2-bar count-in at the beginning of each track.

The above means, that if you load every track in so that it aligns to the left edge of the Ableton's work area, then you song will begin at bar 3 (assuming you've matched tempos between RB and DAW).

What I do in Reaper is to set my bars so that they begin at -1. This means that bars -1 and 0 cover the 2-bar count-in and my song starts playing from bar 1 (just like BIAB).

Hope this helps,
Noel
