While importing a MIDI file with BIAB 2025 Pro got an error message to the effect of "Original file has a 5/16 time signature that is not accepted. Changed to 4/4" That alters the original sound, but BIAB apparently has a work around solution for that.
Does anybody know how to convert the original 5/16 to a 4/4 equivalent within BIAB?

I've been using BIAB for a long time and I cannot think of how to covert something that has 5-beats per bar into something that has 4-beats per bar. Getting a 5-beat song to align comfortably with BIAB's 4-beat accompaniments would be a challenge.

Thank you Noel...I think a pop up passed quickly mentioning something about changing the feel of the song to triplets, but that ship has sailed. I will play around and try to replicate it to see if I can get to something that sounds anywhere close to the original song.

rharv, you got something going on here. I tried it with RB and, guess what, not error message. It imported the MIDI in its original tempo/time signature. Now, I will look into how to save it in a format the BB accepts and try to apply RealTrack styles to it....

Or you can just start generating tracks in RB .. probably be better off in RB at this point
Select a track, Generate Realdrums Select another and Generate what other Realtracks you want. The odd-time handling in RB will likely generate the other tracks to match better than BiaB as they actually generate in the same odd-time .. BiaB would not.
