When I start generate and play, I do not have enough time to then pick up the trombone, start the recording and be ready for the intro. Is there a delay start possible at all?

You could possibly introduce a few extra bars at the start of the song with the instruments muted <F5>, perhaps allowing a drum fill as a 'pickup bar' to provide the tempo/timing?
You can also set the start of the song to be triggered by a MIDI event, but this might be less practical.
(I had also thought of suggesting to put the laptop on the floor and pressing the space bar with your big toe, but decided that this might be a little too avant-garde )

I have an USB foot pedal connected to my laptop. So you could have your trombone ready and just press the pedal (with your foot), when you are ready to go.
It can also halt (a tune) any time, which is ok when playing gigs and something would require you to stop in the middle of playing a tune.

Interesting! Could you please elaborate as to what pedal that is? I have not heard of such.

The problem is then shifting in that the new PC only has 2 USB ports (old one had 4). One is already used for the audio interface and I was hoping to use the second for a harddrive.
That means I will now also have to get a USB hub. It is becoming somewhat messy...

This will give you 10sec then will send F4 to Biab to generate and play. alt+Q is the hot key, you can change it to whatever you like, you can change {F4} to {space} to send spacebar to play only.
Code:
; Only one instance running at a time
#SingleInstance force
~!Q::
winactivate,ahk_class TBandWindow
Sleep, 10000
Send {F4}
return

I bought my USB pedal years ago, so there might be newer and better ones available. Mine is a a 3 pedal Foot Switch (although I only use two) of the type FS3-P. It is very light, made of black plastic. Sorry, there is no brand name.
