Test the WAV file by playing it, to ensure that the MIDI is being
recorded, and the volume levels are correct, and that the volume of the audio
track (if any) is in balance with the MIDI track.
If the audio track Volume isn't
in balance with the MIDI tracks, adjust the level of the audio track to put it in
balance. A setting of 6 dB would make the audio track twice as loud.
It's quickest to do this with a small sample of the wave file. Once you have the
volume in balance, you can record (Render) the whole file. This process takes as
long as the song takes to play in real time, 3-4 minutes for a typical song.
Setting the Recording Properties.
These settings would be correct for recording MIDI if you use a soundcard for
MIDI (select line-in instead if you use an external module.
When you press this, the Rendering will
begin. The file will be rendered with the name stored in the field above. If your
BB song is called "My First Song", the Rendered wave file will be called "_My
First Song.wav" The Rendered WAV files are always named beginning with an
Underscore character, so you can easily identify them. OF course you can
rename them afterwards, and can use the choose button to choose a completely
different name for the wave file. Don't call it "My First Song.wav" since that is
the name of the audio track wave file.
