Is there any way to tell band-in-a-box to stop autoscrolling to the currently playing measure when playing back? I want to enter chords in other areas of the song, while the rest of the song is playing. Any ideas?

Enter chords while the song is playing? I don't think you can.
Stop the scrolling? Look at Opt., Preferences, Notation. Eight lines down from the upper left (in BIAB 2014, at least) is "Scroll Ahead", which you can set to two bars (default), one or zero.
Or if you mean, scrolling from one screen with part of the song to the next part with the next part of the song, I don't think you can control the scrolling, but you can make more rows display on the screen, thus avoiding the scrolling. In that same menu, adjust "Bars per Screen". Then in the Preferences, Display, uncheck "Auto Adjust Row" and set a fixed number.

Hi Josh,
While it's possible to add chords to the chord sheet while BIAB is playing, the added chords will not sound until next time the song if fully generated. BIAB does not create accompaniments on the fly.
Regards,
Noel

Right, that's a good clarification. And you still have to be quick...

Thanks, Matt. I tried the things you suggested. But in my case, while the song is playing I want to be further down the chord sheet entering chords. Even though I know they won't change the music 'till the next song regeneration, it would save me a lot of time.
The problem arises when I scroll down further and I'm entering chords. The playhead advances, then the display gets scrolled up to the currently playing bar. That behavior drives me nuts.
Any other settings that might help?

Yes... you can enter chords as it's playing back but like has been mentioned, the time line keeps moving on.
I often will make changes as I see things that need changing in the song...
Yes, you must restart to make the changes active in the song.
IMHO, the best way is to simply stop the playback, make the changes, and then preview them to be sure they're correct.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
