GuitarHacker makes some solid points.

my $.02

1. Don't use BIAB for live performance. You can do it, numerous veterans on this site do, but there are easier approaches. Software available for gigging with tracks is simply better than BIAB. Plus they run on your phone or tablet if you choose.

Use .wav, flac, mp3 or whatever format the software you select supports.

2. Keep it simple. No orchestral arrangements allowed. I mostly use bass, drums and 1 chording instrument (piano,b3,accordion,etc). I mix the keys very low in the output.
Its mostly just there to help me if I get lost on the changes.

A couple of things I learned from this forum:

Pan the bass hard one side to provide a crude (but effective) eq should you encounter a really boomy room.

Use mp3Gain (or something like it) to make sure output of all your tracks is consistent. Extremely important.

I play everything from Cannonball Adderly to Frank Zappa at my gigs and rarely adjust anything for sound once I run a tune or two at soundcheck.
