Parts of emails I sent to Andrew:

I took some CD's and loaded up 48 tracks and it played perfectly.
I saved as SEQ and restarted the program and it wouldn't even begin to play. Had to use task Mgr to shut down.
Reopened deleted 8 tracks ,saved & restarted it wouldn't play but was able to stop the program.
Deleted 10 more tracks were at 30 now, saved & restarted. the audio was fine the video was jumping a measure at a time.
Deleted 10 more now at 20 saved & restarted audio & video OK.
No more improvement down to 1 track.
Conclusion: I should be able to play 20 tracks. 9 tracks of Real Instruments makes the Video stutter.

I just did a song in RB by entering the chords on the chord sheet. I then added 9 RT, 1 RD, and then added 2 midi files. I then converted the midi tracks to audio and erased the midi. 12 tracks total play fine. All of my songs were created by importing the BIAB MGU files into RB! This is the typical process I used:

1. Import an MGU file into RB that is all MIDI except for Real Drums.
2. Using track---> remove track remove all tracks except the RD and the midi piano part.
3. Tracks--->make all BB tracks regular tracks.
4. Right click on the midi piano part and "auto convert Individual midi track to audio tracck.
5. Remove the midi piano as per #2
6. add 7 more Real tracks by highlighting each track one at a time, right click, select and generate RT.
7. Copy 6 measures of all tracks and paste to the end of the song.
8. do a fade out on these last six measures.

That's it in a nut shell.
