I don’t mean to be argumentative, but I would slightly disagree on the subject of the comment on the BiaB plugin. If used for what it was created for it works. If someone tries make it be BiaB then yes, it was never meant to replace BiaB. It s simply a way to add BiaB tracks to a user DAW of choice. To reuse my illustration, BiaB is a full tool box, the plugin is a multitool. Sometimes all you need is the multitool. Rather than dismiss it completely because it doesn’t fit your workflow discourages others that may find it fits there’s just fine.
Yes the Plugin is fine if you go make a cup of coffee while it generates then renders to wav files.

LOL exactly, it will take a miracle to get users to start using it again, let's hope Adar can give it some miraculous healing by implementing the suggestion I have posted for years.
It would be so simple for PG to give another option for users that want all the Biab features in their DAW by implementing the transport sync vst, it's a no brainer as it's instant and does not generate a whole lot of wav files.
I didn't think that Studio One worked as a Rewire slave ??
First, insert Studio One into ReWire VST as a plugin. Then, insert ReWire VST into BiaB main program as a plugin. After that, both software would sync on playback.
And yes, BBPlugin is the Bud Light of BiaB, aka BiaB Lite, so don't use it.
Thanks. Regarding this ReWire VST, I didn't find a free DEMO version? Do I have to pay for the full version? Or is there any other better alternative?
I got a Studio One version working so I tried it out with midiOut64.dll
If StudioOne is working, it means Cubase would work too, right?
Musocity, not sure if you are fluent in the English language, but it would be great if you could consider buying a microphone, doing a short OBS screen recording with you speak in English and explain what you are doing in the video, and share the video via Dropbox, Google Drive, or YouTube.
Would be much easier to understand you than watching a silent GIF.

..Musocity, not sure if you are fluent in the English language..
I only speak Australian but I can do a good northern Canadian, American, southern or British English accent.
I have done videos in the past but they are too time consuming.
It should work with Cubase but I went to try and it needs reactivating because of motherboard change but too many hoops to jump so could not be bothered.
Midi sync is not stable like Rewire or a Biab Sync VST.
You can try this: Load this in a Biab VSTi slot midiOut64.zip (you may need midi on that track for the VSTi to be active ?) Set it to MTC LoopMidi and set Studio One Midi In to that also.
Go to menu Studio One > Options > Advanced > Synchronization Tab.
Sync to External Devices: Click this box to make Studio One follow incoming MIDI Time Code (MTC). Note that some MIDI devices only transmit MIDI clock data, not MTC. Studio One requires a greater degree of accuracy than a simple MIDI clock can provide. For conversion from SMPTE, an outboard synchronizer is required. For additional accuracy, using an external word clock (master) is recommended. MIDI Time Code: Select the device that will receive MIDI Time Code (MTC). The gray field to the right of the device name indicates the current status of MTC transmission. MIDI Machine Control: Select the device that will receive MIDI Machine Control (MMC).

Are you from Brisbane area? I heard that people from the province of Queensland are usually very technology savvy.
Anyway. Consider buying Adobe Premiere Pro CC. If you don't want to spend money, at least get a free copy of Microsoft Windows Movie Maker.
Do your screen recording as usual. Once done, instead of exporting to a GIF, drag it into Movie Maker, add a few texts, then export to an MP4, save it to your Dropbox, share.
For you, would be much faster to type the texts inside a video, than in a forum post.
For others, would be much easier to understand what you want to say, and they can also pause/rewind the video.
Best part is, you don't have to speak a word of English, when you have texts in a video.

If you look under User To User and go through Users Tracks & Tip N Tricks you will see it's manly full of posts with pic, gifs and videos from musocity, solidrock and pipeline. How many users actually go there and look through to 14 years worth of posts ? I have websites full of media, 4 DropBoxes full of media and they are all for Biab users. www.RealBand.org was a whole site just for RealBand. I seem to be the only one on planet earth posting all this info, I have tried hard to get knowledgeable users from other forums to come here and help it develop, I was even going to buy them Biab but they was no one interested that was up on it all.
It's all time consuming and I'm worn out these days from it all as so much is just ignored. When I leave here one day PG will have a load of resources to go through and play catch up. So much of it is for WORKAROUNDS because it don't have so many industry standard no brainer things that I'm continually posting like the Sync VST that PG fight like crazy against not to mention 48khz 24bit crossplatform audio format compressed and uncompressed. It's so slow watching paint dry for the last 14 years. That's why > New Ways of Doing Things, Quantum Leaps In Thinking

You can see here Studio One needs MTC or MMC to sync with Biab as master. There seems to be no option in Biab for MTC or MMC, again another industry standard thing, see in S1 device options it allows you to send MC MTC or MMC.
I am looking for simple, step by step instructions of how to export a BIAB song (2023 version of BIAB)(six individual instrument Real tracks) to Presonus Studio One DAW. I have made numerous attempts. The best I achieved was moving the BIAB tracks to Studio as a 2 channel mix. The tracks exported to Studio One as two tracks instead of six individual tracks. What did I do wrong?
