Great info, Mac - I'll start working with the info you gave me today.

I had tried to punch in using the method you described, but it didn't seem to work. That is, it appeared to overwrite my previous saved take in places where I hadn't asked it to record. That's when I started getting stuck notes. I'll save a copy of what I have now and try it again. Also, just because you've set it to record at specific measures, do you have to wait for the audio to play from the beginning and reach that point? When I told BIAB that I wanted to record beginning at measure 55, the audio started from the first measure. I assumed I had to then just wait until the audio reached where I wanted to record and input MIDI then, that it would ignore any MIDI entered before measure 55. It would sure be faster if the audio and recording would start right where you wanted, or maybe just a couple of measures ahead.

The only reason I need to add blank measures at the beginning of the song is because that anytime I record from the beginning, there's a two measure count-in with ticks before BIAB starts recording. I've been trying to turn that off so that MIDI recording starts immediately when the audio begins, but I haven't found the right setting to do that.
