Thanks Floyd,

That's a track I did a while back and remixed now that I'm getting a better handle on that end of things.

Like a lot of folks on here, I'm assuming, I create the tracks in BIAB and then export to a DAW of choice (in my case, Logic Pro X). That's where I do all the edits/vocals/mixing/effects, always making sure that before I export, I've centered the pans and rolled off all of the reverb presets in BIAB so I have a cleaner slate to work from.

All that being said, early on I paid a lot of "stupid tax" by not saving everything I should....that included the BIAB file for this particular song. So I don't remember exactly what all I used. I'm pretty sure that I started with Country Ballad w Baritone Guitar, but I can't say for sure. Assuming that's correct, I then added piano, fiddle and steel, as well as another acoustic guitar (fingerpicking).

My process, for anyone who's interested, is that once a song is written and ready for a BIAB treatment, I clock the tempo and use that as the foundation for finding a RealTrack. So I'll open up the "browse styles" box, set the tempo approximately (this song wound up being 68bpm, I searched 70ish). I then just listen to everything in the ballpark tempo-wise, regardless of genre. Sometimes I'll apply additional parameters (swing feel vs even, 8th vs 16th), but I try to keep all the genre options on the table. At that point I try to find a track that either exactly what I want or close. Then I'll add/subtract instruments to my taste, create the track, export the audio files, and from that point everything happens in Logic.

The lesson I learned (the hard way) is that even though I've exported the audio, keeping the BIAB template is a good plan - wish I had figured that out before this particular song.

Appreciate your feedback!
