I'm suspected for some time now that I'm only skimming the potential of BIAB and this would help my learning curve.
Many thanks,

You don't need to do any MIDI directly ... it's a machine language rather than a user language.
In essence all you do is change the track from a RealTrack to a MIDI track and then enter the notes you want in either the notation window or the piano-roll window. I usually enter the notes eith by import orthrough the notation window, then adjust with the piano-roll. The piano-roll allows fairly easy adjustment of timing and velocity. On most tracks, you'll then want to 'freeze' the track so BiaB doesn't regenerate it.

The obvious alternative is to record MIDI into BiaB straight from your instrument, e.g. keyboard/wind-controller/MIDI-guitar.
