Is this what you are trying to do? Lots of discussion in the past here in the forum of moving midi chord charts between differenct apps in the DAW and BIAB-VST. Seems to currently work only in Reaper which is compatible with "midi markers" since BIAB-VST is not reading the midi data, but only the midi marker.
After my exploration, I think BIAB has a lot of originality. In fact, it is also convenient to input chords directly in BIAB. I have BIAB, ezkey, scaler BIAB is the most frequently opened, followed by scaler. Ezkey has not been opened for a long time.
I have 2021 BIAB and that is what I am trying to do drag and drop MIDI chords directly from scaler or DAW into BIAB VST for some reason I am not able to do it I have Reaper but I primarily use Cubase

thank you for trying to help me I am trying to do the opposite "drag the MIDI chords into BIAB VST"
Only in Reaper! And only the "chord markers". The midi data does not move from Reaper, only the chord names.
ok so update... I tried in reaper dragging the chords into reaper works marker are shown correctly but when trying to drag into BIAB 2021 VST it does not work for me please see the video, BIAB VST only shows or load partial chords, maybe I am missing a step?
OK, So all is working pretty much as it always has here, but I have moved on to BIAB-VST 4.0 (BIAB 2022). I still can move chord chart between Reaper, BIAB-VST and Scaler with only minor adjustments needed. Those occur when the nomenclature for the chord is not recognized by one of the programs. For example Scaler and Reaper both recognize Fsus4, but BAIB-VST does not know this sytex and leaves that bar blank. See if this picture is clear showning the same chord chart (started in Scaler) draged to Reaper, then from Reaper draged with (Ctrl-Alt) and dropped into BIAB-VST. It does work.
By the way, I just read this ... The S1 folks should be happy with this BIAB-VST love in 2022.

One of the cool things that you can do with the BIAB plug-in is Shift+ drag the chord progression to Studio One's chord track and boom you have the progression in your DAW.
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."
