I started using BB in 2014 and have been off and on with it until this year. I'm an old retired guy that has found a great guitar teacher this year so I'm on the guitar everyday and using my free time to master BB finally. It's an incredibly simple program but incredibly intimidating too. I don't read music that well but am starting to use tablature regularly. I didn't know that there was a forum here so reading some of your posts has helped me to feel that many of you here have the same intimidation from the software. I'm looking forward to working together with all of you to utilize BB during the next years. My goals on guitar this year are to learn to play and sing to 5 songs with sophisticated back up BB tracks.

You'll find lots of great help here, and we all have an approach that the only silly question is one the that doesn't get asked.

Welcome and it sounds like a noble goal.

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.

Welcome to the most friendly site on the Internet! The only dumb question here is one that is not asked. Plus you will never get the read the manual as the only answer here. Some here are experts on BiaB, MIDI, Real Drums, Real Tracks and/or Real Band and are more than willing to share their expertise.


My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

daofpaul,

Likewise as everyone else has said, welcome to the forum! I hope you will take advantage of the patience, wisdom and experience many users bring to the forum.

A suggestion: (1) Click on the "My Stuff" button at the top of each page to open a pop up menu. (2) Select "Edit Profile" (3) The "Edit profile for daofpaul page opens. (4) Scroll down the page to the "Signature: (up to 255 characters) You may use UBBCode in your signature." location (5) Enter information about your computer hardware, computer operating system and your PG Music products in the blank space provided. There is a preview button so you can see how the information looks. You can follow how I and other users have set up our signature for examples.

Placing the information in your signature provides us with the background information we need to best answer questions.
