Is this what you are trying to do? Lots of discussion in the past here in the forum of moving midi chord charts between differenct apps in the DAW and BIAB-VST. Seems to currently work only in Reaper which is compatible with "midi markers" since BIAB-VST is not reading the midi data, but only the midi marker.

After my exploration, I think BIAB has a lot of originality.
In fact, it is also convenient to input chords directly in BIAB.
I have BIAB, ezkey, scaler
BIAB is the most frequently opened, followed by scaler. Ezkey has not been opened for a long time.

Only in Reaper! And only the "chord markers". The midi data does not move from Reaper, only the chord names.

OK, So all is working pretty much as it always has here, but I have moved on to BIAB-VST 4.0 (BIAB 2022). I still can move chord chart between Reaper, BIAB-VST and Scaler with only minor adjustments needed. Those occur when the nomenclature for the chord is not recognized by one of the programs. For example Scaler and Reaper both recognize Fsus4, but BAIB-VST does not know this sytex and leaves that bar blank. See if this picture is clear showning the same chord chart (started in Scaler) draged to Reaper, then from Reaper draged with (Ctrl-Alt) and dropped into BIAB-VST. It does work.

By the way, I just read this ... The S1 folks should be happy with this BIAB-VST love in 2022.

Quote:
One of the cool things that you can do with the BIAB plug-in is Shift+ drag the chord progression to Studio One's chord track and boom you have the progression in your DAW.


Maybe the reverse direction is now working also?
