First change the style to a 4/4 style, and it may offer to do that feature for you without invoking that menu item. Have Fun! Peter Gannon PG Music Inc.

It's a very cool feature, but I would never have guessed this path if I was trying to find out whether BiaB had such a thing. Thanks for the tip though, now I know it exists.

It's because it will actually take a 4/4 melody and transform it into a 3/4 melody, by adjusting note durations. Conversely, it will take a 3/4 melody and change it into a 4/4 melody. The process does require changing to an appropriate style (3/4 or 4/4), but art it's heart it transforms the melody. That's why it's under the melody menu John Laptop-HP Omen I7 Win11Pro 32GB 2x2TB, 1x4TB SSD Desktop-ASUS-I7 Win10Pro 32GB 2x1.5TB, 2x2TB, 1x4TB SATA BB2024/UMC404HD/Casios/Cakewalk/Reaper/Studio One/MixBus/Notion/Finale/Dorico/Noteworthy/NI/Halion/IK http://www.sus4chord.com

It would not work to convert 4/4 to 3/4 if it just deleted the last quarter note from the melody in every bar. Conversely, it's also like converting something like Fly Me To the Moon (Bart Howard?) - which I think was written as a Jazz Waltz - to a 4/4 Swing. It would not work with nothing on the 4th beat of every bar. Thanks for the explanation.

So instead of (using slashes for non-lyric beats): 3/4 A \| maz / ing \| grace / how \| sweet / the \| sound / that \| ... I do it: 4/4 A \| maz / / ing \| grace / / how \| sweet / / the \| sound / / that \| ... The "Strauss-in-a-Box" and "De-Strauss" feature will do those changes for you automatically.
