Here's how I do it but there may be an easier way:

1. Click on the .WAV button
2. Click on "Save in Windows Media format (WMA)
3. Answer "yes" to the question
4. Click "OK" in response to question
5. File Converter opens... choose "Encode WAV to WMA"
6. Message appears advising that the WMA was successfully created... click "OK"
7. Close the Render window
8. Open the BIAB "File" menu
9. Select "Open Audio"
10. Find the WMA file... it'll be the one in all caps.. and right click on it
11. Select "Send To" and "My Documents"
12. Open your documents and move the file to iTunes
13. Open iTunes and then open the "File" menu
14. Select "Add File to Library" and open the WMA file (it'll be in all caps with "_RENDER" after the song name)
15. iTunes will convert it to an MP3 and your good to go

David,

This might help you with the tracks. It's good information to have anyway.

Steve,
Thanks for the help, after messing with it found a shorter way to get it done.. I have BIAB on my lap top, and needed to get them to my Mac to put on I phone.. just emailed them to it..The nice thing about I Tunes ia, right click the file, and turns it to mp3...so emailing the mid file was fast , and converted it once in I tunes on the Mac, then to the Phone..

1. save as mid to desk top
2. put in I tunes, right click, and turn it in to a mp3.. Done..
made a BIAB folder for phone... and it's quick and easy..thanks for helping


Very Happy

Incidentally, how's Rachel, er, Rebecca? LOL
