The ability to create and render an audio file that has a backing track as one channel and a click or metronome track as a totally separate isolated channel; for example an MP3 with the click on the right and the backing track on the left.

I and several other have tried to accomplish this to exhaustion so I know at present it CAN'T be done at all or as easily as it should.

BTW - All that is needed to make this happen is for the MIDI Metronome Styles to be able to be set as mono which DOES NOT WORK at present.

Thanks for any consideration you can give to this request!

Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Click Track or Metronome Track on Single Stereo Channel = defined as:
"The ability to create and render an audio file that has a backing track as one channel and a click or metronome track as a totally separate isolated channel; for example an MP3 with the click on the right and the backing track on the left."


I assume you mean a stereo file that looks like this in Audacity? Discreet Click track generated in BIAB on the Right Channel and discreet Accompaniment Music generated in BIAB on the Left Channel?

This is how a stereo file rendered in BIAB looks.

I posted the steps to place the click track and accompaniment tracks on a single stereo channel in the related post in BIAB for Windows - HERE -

This technique should work with any SGU file, any imported MIDI song, imported audio song or imported XML file.

The process is to prepare each track as a complete arrangement in mono. BIAB defaults to rendering stereo files but there's a conversion button in the Audio Editor. It's a simple process to covert a MIDI metronome style or the clicktrk.sty from stereo to mono.

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."
