With your MIDI keyboard connected and communicating with BIAB, click on the Record MIDI button and a new window will appear. You can select to record on either the Melody Track or the Soloist Track.

This also allows you to record two different MIDI Tracks and include them with a BIAB Style if the Style does not have instruments populating those tracks. If you are using a BIAB Style that does contain instruments of either or both the Melody Track and the Soloist Track, you can replace those instruments with your external MIDI device.

You can also record your external MIDI keyboard onto the Melody or Soloist Track and then save the recording as a Performance Track and move the Performance Track to the Audio Track, then move the Audio Track to any open Mixer Track and continue to use the Melody or Soloist Track for additional live recordings from your external Keyboard.

By bouncing a Performance Track or a combination of BIAB Style MIDI instruments or RealTracks, you can use this method to record a dozen or more tracks.

If your version of BIAB has RealBand, you can also record your MIDI Keyboard with that program.
