I've read through all of posts of this thread to try and get an idea why there was such an issue with using Midi Metronome or ClickTrk Style in BIAB.

The issue seems to be the click track and the accompaniment track are in stereo and need to be converted to mono.

The good news for those who may wish to give it a try, it's super easy and fast to do in BIAB with just a few clicks. BIAB has a button designated expressly to do it.

Here's how to create the Midi stereo click file and convert it into mono using BIAB:

Create and save the current project
Load a MIDI Metronome or the ClickTrk.Sty Style into BIAB set the tempo to desired bpm.
Rt. click on the drums track and from the drop down menu
Click on Track Actions and from the drop down menu
Select - Save Track as Performance File (Wav/M4a)

This action quickly converts the midi click track into a audio file and saves it into the same folder where the project SGU file has been saved to. In addition, when the play or generate button is pressed, the drums track labels turn orange and the track is renamed to Artist, indicating the track now contains an audio Artist Performance file. Select the Drums Track on the Mixer and then press the Audio Editor Icon to open the Audio Editor and the click track is now a visible stereo wave form on the Drums Track in the Audio Editor.

To Convert the Stereo wav form to Mono:

Open the Audio Editor and be sure the Drums Track is selected and click wav form is visible
Click the Editor Button and from the Drop down menu
Select Convert Channels - and from the Window Dialog window that opens
The defaults are set for each channel at 50 - Keep these defaults and
Click OK and the stereo track is converted to mono at the 50/50 ratio.

At this point, I recommend to also click the Edit Button and select Normalize and normalize the mono track -3 or -6 db.

The Click Track is now Mono.

To move the Artist Performance File from the Drums Track to another Mixer Track and return the Drums Track to normal use:
with the Drums Track selected
Edit |Copy Special| Copy Move
In the Copy Move Dialog Window
Unselect all Midi channels
Set the MIDI Box to Do Nothing
Set the Audio Box to Copy to destination track
Select the desired new track to copy the Artist Performance File audio to re: Utility Track #1
