Other than using BIAB back in the 90s on Atari ST/Falcon, I'm really new to this software. So far my OmniPAK edition has installed and it all comes across as intuitive and easy to work with. I've got it talking to all of my VST2/3 instruments and an external Fantom X (audio input monitored via armed Thru track) via an instance of Bidule as the default synth. It's all working and sounding great so far!

One thing I am starting to anticipate is a need to inject some CC information into MIDI tracks. I.E. Garritan's JABB3 library interprets dynamics this way rather than via traditional 'note velocity'.

Example: Insert CC1 or CC11 on the same tick of each note-on event, at the same value as note-on, or velocity. Such an automated process is desired because it would 'quickly' offer a good 'starting point' from which to later 'fine tune' the dynamics of each note 'if necessary'.

Is there such an ability already built into BIAB? If not, are there compatible scripting tools that can do this sort of thing to bb's song/style files?

Anyone have experiences to share as to how you manage such things? Maybe export tracks into a DAW that can do such things in a couple clicks and then move it back to a BIAB song?

I do use Bidule and so far I have it snoop each key velocity and add the CC into the live MIDI stream, but it's not always as musical as I'd like; plus, it's not all that straight forward to preserve/embed the data into the song itself.

Thanks,
Brian
