I open BIAB
File
load from Stylepicker
Load song demo
file
save special
save song as a midi file
type one midi file
OK save as file


In the case of the file in question, there were only two tracks, and both were midi piano.

I did not freeze the tracks. I am not sure why one would need to. I never even played the song in BIAB before rendering it.

There are a lot of uncommanded actions in BIAB based on preferences.

Also, I would never notice one note missing from the piano track in a normal situation. I just happened to return to BIAB because of a chord that did not sound correct when I played the song live on my piano. I wanted to see if what got rendered was correct.

The chord issue is another preference issue in BIAB. BIAB can and does play chords differently than what is written both by the user and in a demo.

This is just part of the arcane nature of the software. More or less fixable if you know exactly where to go and understand the interrelationships between the possible selections.
