Very cool.
Excited for you Eddie.
Just wondering if you do realize that you *could* record those inputs right back into RB if you wanted to. It does have the capability. <grin> No need for second system or second DAW software (as long as your system is up to the task; and it probably is).
Okay because I am a geek and always want to know more "how do I", how do I do that? Feed the mixer back onto the next 2 tracks as I mix it? Treat it just like I was layering another layer of sound on a song? Can I record 2 tracks at once using the "record audio" option? I never recorded more than one track at a time. Another instance of ignorance because I never had occasion to try.
I did not know you could play and record at the same time outside of the fact that I am seeing this as teh same as adding bgv or a guitar solo to an existing song.
I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.
1. How much did you make in 2023?
2. Send it to us.

You got it. Select the same two *input* ports you are using in Audition, and use them in RB. RB will play the other tracks to the various output ports just like before, but record only the selected input ports..
Highlite a new track and record away. Your new mix will end up on the new track in RB.
Then you can Solo it (to listen), or export it, or edit it, or whatever you want. All on one machine and in one program.
As always, if you record to a stereo track, you'll only need one track. If you record to a MONO track it'll go to two tracks (for L&R).. I'd select the next blank track, make it a stereo audio track and record it on the one track at this point.

Happy mixing Eddie. Now, get some serious source material laid down to take advantage of the sliders under your fingers....

Target date for CD release party is April! They are written, scratchpad recorded (and in my definition "scratchpad" means 75% complete pending solos and bgv overlays), and the place I did sound last night has welcomed us to hold the event. Only holds 150 or so, but reality is that if I sell 100 of these on opening night I'll be thrilled beyond belief.
Now to find 100 relatives...

Advice learned the hard way:
Keep that deadline date "etched in pencil" and keep the eraser handy.
Why?
The largest single factor we used to face when the only way to get a studio quality recording was to lease, rent, or otherwise procure pro studio time was the time itself. Far too many projects either didn't get finished, or suffered from the rush to finish in the time allotment that could be afforded. And many suffered from trying to compress time like that.
But now that you are recording at home and have the ability, with some time, learning and practice, to yield the same or better product that we once could only obtain by either hiring studio time or purchasing a studio ($$$), the one thing that you really have at your disposal is time itself. Use it.
Try to avoid setting a deadline that is basically an arbitrary pick, instead taking advantage of that one thing that home recording really brings us. If the project needs more time in order to pursue excellence, why not extend that deadline?
And you don't end up having to work under pressure to git-r-done, which in actuality can be heard in the finished product.
I do set dates, but I also try to keep 'em rather flexible, such that they are always open to the dynamics of the situation. If necessary, allow for a bit more time. No Producer(s) chafing at the bit, no investors crying for return on investment, likewise no "dog 'n pony show" checkpoints in which the investor(s) apply pressure, no studioguy informing you that you only have a few hours time left, etc. etc. etc.
I've heard far too many finished products that could have been much more finished, if not for the setting of an arbitrary deadline - in a home studio.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
