According to Dr. Gannon's statement in another post, it seems PG Music assumed the multi riffs would be used in a DAW. For me having read discussions about this over the course of the last few years, that seemed a logical conclusion for them to reach. Who knows, improvements may be coming. It works like a charm when it's used as the developers designed, being moved to a DAW. It's only a few steps more to use the generated multi riffs in BIAB .

The reason it seems a logical conclusion to me is because BIAB has always been able to generate more than 7 tracks in the program. It's always been possible when BIAB was midi and regarding audio and RealTracks, as long as the program has had an audio track and Performance Tracks available to the user. It's been available for all the years I've personally used the program. It is a simple process but mostly disregarded in practice. The paramount reason mentioned in forum discussions for not using the feature is how much 'easier' it is to do in a DAW.
