Yes - see attached images. I have build 813, so hopefully fixed in 814. In 2020, when I'd drag and tell it to create separate tracks, the track buttons would sequentially enable themselves individually (all others muted) when rendering each track. Now the Master is the only one unmuted and that's as far as it goes. And the resulting wave is silent. Also there doesn't seem to be a connection between the Solo button in the Master track in the track list and the "Master" track at very bottom of Mixer (with two sliders). And I think those are market incorrectly - says "L" and "R" but the sliders are for song/all song volume. Definitely some work needs to be done with the Mixer.

That info is for the plugin so I don't suppose it will work with the main program.
God, sometimes I hate all the jargon BIAB uses.
This is NOT involving the BIAB VST Plugin. BIAB historically used the term Plugin in a whole different context. This is using the OLD plugin setup options for dragging and dropping our of BIAB the main program.
AAAhhhaaaa .....
That is a bit confusing and thanks for the explanation.
Having made that selection in your screenshot, dragging from the 'Master' button does indeed 'drag'n'drop' all the individual instrument tracks into the 'drag'n'drop folder.
It's just that the button doesn't show as being selected (lit up). Apart from this, it does appear that some other aspects remain not as they should be as cwiggins999 lists. I think the 'Master' button does need some TLC still.
So you are doing it a little different than the way I did (do) it. I do not drag the Master to the "DropBox". Instead, I drag the Master directly to my DAW. Reaper does not need this intermediate step. Then with the Cntrl or Shift key held I can get midi or audio of all individual tracks.
It seems there are so many different ways to do things in BiaB that everyone thinks they are on the same page when they are not :-) The results out of BiaB are just amazing - I'm still in my first year of using it and it has revolutionized how I'm making music these days. So at least from my standpoint I'm willing to put up with the absolutely convoluted and baggage-laden UI, but I can understand how many would give up. And I'm speaking as a software engineer with 30+ years experience developing games, web, and mobile apps.
I just tried drag-and-drop as you describe with Cakewalk and that does work for getting wave files over. But as I mentioned, I find that starting my Cakewalk project by loading one MIDI file (usually MIDI of a RealTrack since I rarely use MIDI only tracks) gets the overall arrangement, tempo map and part markers into my Cakewalk project. Then I drag all the wave files in at once and have everything lined up and synced. As a software engineer with app build experience, I guess I always gravitate toward repeatable processes when moving from one application to another, and this process is how I've been working for 9 months.
So with your process, are you able to get MIDI of the RealTracks into Reaper?

Yes, I have always been able to move midi and wav via drag and drop out of BIAB (the program) into Reaper. But I have not tried lately with the new BAIB 2021 (except what we have been doing here). And in fact I use the BIAB -VST for all of that now. It is far quicker in my workflow.
User Video: Band-in-a-Box® + ChatGPT = Impressed the BOSS!
Since AI is now readily available online as a resource for many things, we recently put together and shared a video where we demonstrated how to create a song using Band-in-a-Box®, ChatGPT, and Synth V; we've also shared a Bob Doyle Media video, Convert MIDI Chords into AI Vocal Harmonies with ACE Studio and Band in A Box, showing how they utilize AI for their song projects. Now it's time to share Henry's video, Band-in-a-Box + ChatGPT = Impressed the BOSS!, where he demonstrates how to use ChatGPT and Band-in-a-Box to whip a song project together in only 3-4 hours.
Visit Henry Clarke's YouTube Channel, Henry Clarke - Senior Musicians Unite, to find a large collection of tutorials showing the viewer how to achieve amazing results using Band-in-a-Box®!
If you've reviewed our Support page, you've probably noticed the Videos page, which separates our Band-in-a-Box® tutorial videos by category: Overview, VST DAW Plugin, Setup, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and there's even an Archive category to go down memory lane... (You'll also find these videos on our YouTube Channel.)

Take your Band-in-a-Box® project to a whole new level when you incorporate ChatGPT and Synth V to add lyrics and vocals to your song!
We wanted to demonstrate how this is done with our video, where we show you how to go from nothing to a finished "radio ready" modern pop song by combining the features of Band-in-a-Box®, ChatGPT, and Synth V!
User Video: Convert MIDI Chords into AI Vocal Harmonies with ACE Studio and Band-in-a-Box®
The Bob Doyle Media YouTube channel is known for demonstrating how you can creatively incorporate AI into your projects - from your song projects to avatar building to face swapping, and more!
His latest video, Convert MIDI Chords into AI Vocal Harmonies with ACE Studio and Band-in-a-Box, he explains in detail how you can use the Melodist feature in Band-in-a-Box with ACE Studio. Follow along as he goes from "nothing" to "something" with his Band-in-a-Box MIDI Melodist track, using ACE Studio to turn it into a vocal track (or tracks, you'll see) by adding lyrics for those notes that will trigger some amazing AI vocals!
