Mario, tell me how Pipeline works...I don't really know Studio One, but anything that brings chords into a DAW sounds interesting. I had a starter copy of Studio One once, but didn't see a major advantage over Mixcraft.


Pipeline has written a number of programs, one that will transfer BiaB chords to Studio One. He has also written similar programs for other DAWs. The Studio One program is here:

The nice thing is that the BiaB VSTi is scalable so you can make it a large as your monitor if you wish. Using this method you can use the better sounds in your DAW, record your vocals in your DAW, while you view the BiaB measure and chords.
Yes, interesting, thank you. I really haven't given the BIAB VST a fair trial...since on a track, in my DAW, it has the same GM sounds. Offhand, I wonder if that is any different than simply leaving BIAB up in a window on my second monitor.


By using the VSTi your tempo, measures, and chords will sync with your DAW. Having the BiaB program run on a separate monitor will not stay in sync. You may be able to place the VSTi on your second monitor; I only have one monitor so I can not check that.

You will hear your better sounds in your DAW and not the GM sounds from the VSTi. At least that is what happens here.

The labels have to be changed from "open here" to "open at home"
