Hi, not sure if this post belongs here but I was recommended a software called Band in a box to use for practices arpeggios. Anyone here used it before and know where I can find tutorials? Also, where I can get a free download? Thanks
Firstly, welcome.
From the help:
"Arpeggios are a musical technique where the notes of a chord are played individually, rather than all at once. They are commonly used in various genres of music to add texture and movement to a piece.
In Band-in-a-Box, you can create arpeggios using the Soloist menu (Chapter 14) or by manually entering the chord progression (Chapter 6). Additionally, you can use the Melody menu to generate arpeggiated melodies.
For more detailed information on how to create arpeggios in Band-in-a-Box, you can refer to Chapter 14: User Programmable Functions and Chapter 6: Making Songs in the Band-in-a-Box documentation."
The 3023 version states this:
"Chord Track Added
Chord track is added, for use with a VST (e.g., arpeggiators want a chord track) or for simple “pad” (held chords) tracks.
Chord track can be generated on any track. Specifying note range is required.
There is an option to always put a chord track on a specified track (e.g., Utility track #16).
Specific MIDI SuperTracks are added that generate a simple chord track (triads/7ths) or a chord track including 9ths/13ths. Adding these MIDI SuperTracks to your track will write a chord track in the range set, for use with arpeggiators or other VST’s wanting a chord track. With each play a new chord track is written. To do this, open the Select MIDI SuperTracks and choose one that has “Arpeggio” in the name. "
There are no free downloads to my knowledge, however,
there is a 30 day money-back guarantee if you purchase, shown on this page
