There is a pic show files sizes of Flac Wav and Wavepack, wavepack will encode to more than 10 channels ideal for drums. Compressed format ogg will encode to more than 10 channel also. So Biab could generate, import or render all it's tracks to/from a multichannel format.
(note i'm vision impaired re your posted pics so need some clarification.)
ok , assume i'm a noncompoop…lol…
is there a piece of flac or ogg or whatever conversion software i can use that will do the following after exporting from realband or biab the rt etc wav's ..
ie convert them to flac or ogg or whatever so i can import to reaps as flac or ogg…?? cos i'm confused…cos currently anything i drop into reaps via drag drop or export wavmeans i'm stil in the wav domain. (if there is ! please text back the precise steps please. cos recording in reaps is no probs..i can record in flac etc. )
note…before i create a new song ..i create a new folder in win ,,,and the folder is used to store everything to do with the song whether reaps or bb or rb.
now heres the rub…obviously the folder can get very big for a complex song (cos rt wav's from bb and rb). the result being back ups take longer. which , with all flac or all ogg or whatever i would save save times. see what i mean ?
i DID have an idea how to lessen the impact on the current pg code base of rb and bb. maybe allow ,... using a public domain flac or ogg convertor ?…a convertor option to flac or ogg on export or drag/drop from rb or biab…make sense ?
i mean ideally i would love to work in biab and rb to work all the time in the flac or ogg domain , but i'm sure this would be lots of recoding work for pg. maybe only on export ?? , this would save pg lots of work. ideally i would like to drag traks from rb or biab into reaps as flac. rather than an added conversion to flac/ogg step.
That's why I made the track injector because my hard drive filled up too many times because of all the wav files created by Biab, BiabVST and RealBand SEQ session files I tried converting 12 wav files to a multichannel flac in Reaper but it didn't work but wv wavepack did it's the same Perfect(Lossless) quality.
To make a custom multichannel just add or remove tracks, set the number of tracks on the Multichannel track ROUTE and if you add a track create a Receive. Select the Multichannel track to render along with time selection.
You can also convert any wav files in a Reaper project to FLAC OGG... in the Save dialog.
"(note i'm vision impaired re your posted pics so need some clarification.)" If you right click on the pic "Open Image in New Tab" then use Ctrl+ mousewheel to zoom in/out and cursor keys to move.
I think they said they can do that now as there is a library for Delphi ? I would not stop with just flac, also have an option to save all tracks to a multichannel file.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
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."
