Thank you so much Henry.
Now take that break. Go get some peace and unwind. Come back only if/when you're ready.
I'm absolutely certain you work very hard on those videos, you deserve a break. I know just how much stress there can be producing this stuff and answering questions. I follow an unrelated channel and calculated that the producer of it spends an average of an hour working on each minute of his videos. It's hard work.
What we all too easily forget is just how much of the iceberg we can't see.
I had a friend years ago who had a notice on her desk that read:
"After the rush is over I'm going to have a breakdown. I've worked for it, I deserve it, and nobody but nobody, is going to deprive me of it."
Don't risk a breakdown.

ALL TUTORIALS have been restored. I'll be taking a break for a while so I may not be very responsive to comments and questions but hopefully you will enjoy the tutorials and gain some practical knowledge. I will say that anything in my Tutorials are based on the way "I" do things. Of course there are always alternatives and if my Tutorials do not work for you that's ok. No harm done. You can always change the channel LOL https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCeNXkH3SoQDSiv7LDkpmyA Cool.
Cheers

I just landed on this thread. It seems the 10 minutes video on YouTube is no longer available.
Can someone please update this thread by describing the step by step with texts and screenshots?
I assume this video is about first open a MIDI, let BiaB figure out the chords, then insert the same MIDI to existing MGU, so MIDI and RealTracks can be played together?
How to do that? What's the purpose?

How to do that? What's the purpose? Yes, that's the basic concept. It's a way to create realistic cover songs combining a midi file and RealTracks. The midi channels are separated out from the Melody Track onto Utility Tracks so better synth sounds can be used to replace the default GM sound patches. If the default GM synth sounds are ok, there's no necessity to import and separate the Midi channels, use the Sequencer that's built into BIAB and mute unwanted Midi channels. Here's a song I did years ago using this method. Listen to the Music
