The editing in Biab is too restricted, that's why I showed the Reaper script that instantly transfers the Biab tracks without rendering to wav and dragging in. You are best to use Biab to just generate up the track/s or section/s and the sooner you get out of Biab into Reaper where you have full editing control the better. Even when you use the Copy Special function to Move tracks, it turns the track into wav files.

Hello Hans Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment. I am so happy that you did (positive or negative) Warning : Lengthy rant. I am sorry that we got off to a bumpy start and I appologise if I offended you in any way. I am very opiniated which often gets me into trouble. (Or maybe the topic of your song hit a raw nerve!! :o) Please know that I rate your "radio ready" musical,vocal and production skills highly, as I do with many on this forum. Your Lyrics are all the more impressive if English is not your first language. So your comments and opinions are important to me. Though HipHop has been around since the early 70's, I have ignored it due to the aggro/gangsta general nature of it's lyrics. This is my first attempt but it is fun to play around with and would encourage all to give it a try. It's basically Kick/Snare/Hats to some rhyming poetry and you are done. Less is more. Fun. All vocals are my own. Nogmaals bedankt Hans (I looked it up on Google translate)

The XML won't include notes nor lyrics, just chords, parts, key and tempo, which is exactly what I expect to import in musescore. As far as I know Reaper or any other DAW won't import that XML, simply because most DAWS are not designed to work with that info. Importing the XML into musescore has worked flawlessly for me (and I've been using SMP a lot during these last months), so I suspect there's something you're not doing correctly. Would you mind to share your project here? XML should handle all the notes, lyrics, key, tempo and notational stuff like crescendos and trills. Should != does  I asked the developer about the ability to export lyrics when exporting musicXML, here's his answer: "The lyrics feature in MusicXml expects for lyrics to be broken down into syllables and each syllable given a time element for when it is sung. I don't have timing data at that granularity so I'm not exporting lyrics. There may be another way to get lyrics that I'm not aware of. I may be able to export a bunch of words at a time (not syllables)--similar to what I do with pdf export." Exporting identified notes is currently supported via a midi file, not via musicxml. Maybe in future versions...

Hi, Fred. Nice and moody! Love the sound - vocals, backing tracking, all of it. Lots of cool things going on with the arrangement, and well sung. Technically, a needle doesn't have a head; that would be a pin.  Thanks. As for pins and needles, I’m glad I renewed my poetic license…

"The highway of life has an exit Marked with a bright dollar sign Driving by feel One hand on the wheel Inching closer to the borderline" Great lines! Well done in all aspects. The mix setup up a great soundstage on our monitors. Enjoyed it! J&B Thanks!

This is simply an OCD issue, but is there a quick and easy way to change the order of the tracks in the mixer? Click-and-drag doesn't seem to work. I'm used to doing it that way in Reaper, and would be surprised if there isn't an easy way to re-order tracks in BIAB. Thanks! The answer, unfortunately, is no. You currently cannot do this from within the BIAB program.

Hi Hans. You and Anne-Marie have done a fantastic job. In the past, I have always loved listening to each of you sing. Having you both together in a single song is great ear-candy for me  And your voices fit together so very, very well. Kudos to you on this work! I have to confess that I empathise with way too many of the lyrics. I love what you've created and what the two of you have produced. --Noel P.S. I enjoyed the lyric video too! That was a good touch.

Hi Carl, I love the musical ambience you create. The mood is reflective, thoughtful, contemplative. In fact, it's perfect listening for a gray cloudy Sunday here in Melbourne at 9:30 a.m. And what a wonderful and inspired arrangement. You lead the listener on a journey of wonderful sounds that weave together and never stops being interesting. "Beautiful music" at its best --Noel

The plugin needs the multipicker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!! !!!!! The plugin needs it's own multipicker otherwise BBW4 multipicker dialog would have to be open all the time. Using BBW4 it would need to leave the multipicker dialog open and always ontop, and be able to read all the instruments currently on each track in the Plugin. They just need to bite the bullet and put it all in one plugin rather than 2 apps: ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=download&Number=27875&filename=BBPlugin-Multipicker.png)

I just made a quick test with one song and it worked fine for me (I have not tried SMP with EZKeys before) Loaded the song into SMP Exported MusicXML Loaded MusicXML into MuseScore4 Exported partiture as midi Dragged the midi into EZKeys2 chord line (only the chord name line, I didn't drag in the midi line) It seems to work fine for that single file that I tested. All chords names and extensions loaded into the correct places in the time line the song had parts with several chords in a bar, and chords with various extensions. I did not change any Keys. The song was in the correct key in SMP and was loaded with the correct key into EZK. Maybe it works better if leaving the key cange to the last instans ie in EZKeys once the chords are loaded. I just tested one song and that one worked fine for me. EDIT:---- I only tested that the chord names were imported correctly (not the chord midi). I did another test later it also worked fine but here I had misses in two places eg one bar with G-G/D-G/D-G/D was loaded as 4 G/D and similar on one other bar, but in overall the rest was correct and worked well and it was quite a complicated chord structure and chord types. (I also tried to import the midi file to BIAB but that required a lot of editing, the amount seems to vary depending of the song. To import chords from SMP to BIAB from MusicXML via MuseSCore while waiting for a bug fix see posting above). (I have reported the problems with loading MusicXML files into BIAB to PGMusic as a bug (assumed bug, BIAB only loading root names but not extensions) They can reproduce the problem and will have the developers look into it. If there are other problems with loading MusicXML into BIAB maybe it would be useful to notify them so they can fix it all in one go.)

for my songs to avoid confusion i just set chorus to one. then i use layers or bar lettering plus a number eg... I for intro V for verse C for chorus L for lead K for key change O for outtro etc etc So verse 3 would be V3 ...second lead break L2 sort of idea just build your own nomenclature in layers option. works for me. frankly without upsetting jazzers and have then jump all over me i think its time to reassess the use of the chorus term as it often confuses new users who think in terms of intro verse chorus lead break bridge outtro whatever. i know it confused me years ago ...when i started with bb. so i worked out my own nomenclature for different parts of a song. now that we have the fab new bb tracks view i feel a special track called song sections should be made under the time ruler where people enter names for different song sections eg...verse one or chorus 3 or whatever. see my wishlists sometime to save retyping....where i mention other unique tracks be added to bb like tempo and special drum tracks etc and lyrics track etc ... ps i dont like how rb does markers cos of time involved in the markers dialog. with a song sections or markers unique track under the time line...just type in directly on the track intro or verse or chorus wnatever. happiness. om 🇨🇦 🇬🇧

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
