Hi Lesley,

Because BIAB, by default, names tracks after the instrument that appears on them, could I get you please to turn off this automatic naming process. BIAB will then revert to it's original static track names.

To do this, deactivate the two options shown on IMAGE 1 below.

Now...

If the name of the track is either Melody or Soloist, then the octave adjustment is found under the top menu.

IMAGE 2 shows how to transpose MIDI information on the the Melody track. The Soloist menu item also has this feature for the Soloist track.

Lastly...

If the track is neither the Melody nor the Soloist track, then the only way to change the octave is "Preferences | Channels". This setting is permanent until it's changed back to it's original state: -1 = one octave lower, 1 = one octave higher. This is shown on IMAGE 3. I've highlighted the Guitar track.

Regards,
Noel

P.S. I see Matt was typing at the same time I was!
