<< for example lets take a song i do in march 2021.
it would be in a sub folder with song name and date. within the main SONGS2021 folder.
make sense ?
lets say the song is called "MEOW CAT SAMBA".
so the song folder is named for example "MEOWCATMAR21".
EVERYTHING RELATED TO THE SONG GOES IN THAT FOLDER.

given the above, does it not make sense when a user starts a new song/project and presses NEW in the menu that biab(or RB) asks.........
"WHERE DO YOU WANT ALL CREATED CONTENT TO BE SAVED" ?
(ie everything that biab and the user create.)
and one identifies the relevant folder , in this case "MEOWCATMAR21".
THUS. the biab files/content would be in the same folder as the daw content/traks. makes trak loading into daw simple,
makes back ups simple. no transfers into daw folder needed. >>

Good idea. While this is an option that's been available for a few years although apparently not well known, I'm mentioning it here because it is a feature that can be improved on and might be an essential workflow tool even with the introduction of Utility Tracks this year.

First, just the process of doing a "Save" or "Save as" of a project prompts the user to select a save folder. Doing so immediately after beginning a "New" project would be ideal for the creation of sub-folders named after the 8 BIAB Mixer Legacy Channels - Bass, Piano, Drums, Guitar, Strings, Melody, Soloist and Audio.

Artist Performance Tracks are available for each of the Legacy channels and saving a file with this option names the file using a naming convention that BIAB recognizes and imports that saved audio onto the appropriate BIAB Mixer Channel. On versions prior to 2021, an Artist Performance also changes the tracks color and freezes the track.

Adding appropriate sub-folders would allow multiple audio files to be saved for input into DAW's or to choose as an alternate track for the BIAB project.
