Render MIDI Track to AIFF File
Any Band-in-a-Box MIDI track can be automatically rendered to an AIFF audio file from its contextual menu. The
menu opens with either a right mouse click, Control+click, or a double click on the part name. By selecting the
Menu command Save MIDI track as AIFF file the complete
Band-in-a-Box track will be rendered to an audio file.
The file can then be imported into another audio program, such
as GarageBand or Cubase.
Rendering Audio Files
Direct-to-Disk Audio Rendering
Audio rendering means converting a MIDI song to audio format, usually to an AIFF file or a compressed M4A file.
Press the [Audio] button on the main Band-in-a-Box screen to render your Band-in-a-Box song to an AIFF,
M4A, or WAV file. The song is rendered automatically in 5 – 10 seconds through the built-in Apple DLS
Music Device or Core MIDI. It’s that easy!
You can choose to render the full mix of MIDI tracks and RealTracks together, or just the mix of RealTracks or
MIDI tracks alone.
By selecting “Individual RealTracks” or “Individual MIDI Tracks” each track will be rendered to its own separate
file. This allows for complete control when the files are imported into another program for further editing and
mixing.
There is a choice of output formats.
