I am running BIAB 2018 (version 268) and I use an iMac with the current Macos.
I have an M-Audio KeyRig49 Midi Keyboard Controller and for some reason I am not able to connect it correctly to BIAB. I can't generate any midi sound in BIAB. I have tried the basic steps from the manual info and run the basic set up using Macos Midi Studio but no dice. The KeyRig49 Keyboard shows in the MACOS MidiStudio set up but I can't get BIAB to "see it".
The keyboard works fine in my LogicX Studio and I also have an Apogee duet interface (used mainly for recording vocal).
The Midi keyboard connects direct to the iMac via USB., but BIAB doesn't see it no matter what I do.
Can you please assist ?
Many thanks,
Colleen & Gary.

In the CoreAudio MIDI setup, go to the Window menu | Show MIDI Studio (if necessary).
You typically need to Add External Device, then connect the OUT of the device (your keyboard) to the IN on the USB interface pictured there, by clicking and dragging a cable.
Next, you should restart Band-in-a-Box if it's already open. Go to the Options | CoreMIDI choose ports, and select your MIDI interface under Input.

I don't understand this either. Following your instructions above all I see is my USB Arturia keyboard and the IAC driver. Trying to connect a cable to IAC fails.

You're probably done with the CoreMIDI setup then, and you just need to select it in Band-in-a-Box under Options | CoreMIDI choose ports...

You can record to either the Melody (more common) or Soloist track. To record MIDI-only to the Melody track, you can type Command+R or go to Melody menu | Edit.. | Record Melody.
