I am trying to enter lyrics and I am having a problem with corrections staying after edits. I used a midi file of All My Loving from the web and used Import Chords From Midi File to isolate the melody and everything is working fine but then I noticed some of the words on the wrong notes and I can't correct them with the editor!
Is this a bug in Version 2012?
The truth is - I'm not using the real lyrics - who would need too? - these songs are in our heads like nursery rhymes.
I am using them to practice and memorize solfege

Paul. Good for you.
I'm possibly not able to immediately answer the question.
What are you using to edit the lyrics? Is this Note-Based lyrics as viewed in the Notation editor of the 2012 version?
Regardless, I take my hat off to you for your excellent efforts in memory training.
Keep up the good work. Comments like yours are very encouraging.

Paul, I suspect that this is happening because the music notes are not aligned on exact beats or maybe you are in triplet time. For example... If you have a look at the triplet at the end of the bar when notation editing mode is operating, the notes and words are aligned.  When I leave the editing mode, though, the notes and words are not aligned.  This is because BIAB is interpreting the display to give the least cluttered musical look to the notes (not the lyrics). Solution... Align the syllables manually on the final display. To do this, it's necessary to do some simple arithmetic. In BIAB, a quarter note has 120 ticks. This means that there are 120 divisions from one quarter note to the next. This is constant. In triplet time, where each quarter note has three evenly spaced divisions, this means that each position in the triplet has 120/3 = 40 ticks between them. Since the 'beat position' of a note is always the zero tick value for a note, the three positions for the triplet must be.... (a) 0 ticks(b) 0 + 40 = 40 ticks(c) 40 + 40 = 80 ticks When looking at the notation mode view after closing the editor, it can be seen the the note that supports the "is" syllable is moved to the 0 tick position. Thus.... 1. Select "Edit Lyrics as Event List". This is under "Edit | Lyrics" in BIAB 2016 and under the "Lyrics" menu in earlier versions of the program. 2. Scroll through to locate the syllable/word. 3. In my example, the word "is" has the music position of 9:4:040. This is saying that the word is located in bar 9, on beat 4 and tick 40.  4. Select the syllable (#1 on the image below), click Edit (#2), set the tick value that's presently set to 40 (#3) to a new value of 0 (zero).  5. This then give the note's musical co-ordinates as 9:4:000 (bar 9, beat 4, tick 0).  6. When viewed in notation mode (and lyric sheet mode), the syllable now aligns with the music display.  Hopefully this helps. Regards, Noel P.S. These "note-length to ticks" values might also be useful - whole note = 480 ticks
- half note = 240 ticks
- quarter note = 120 ticks
- quarter note triplet = 80 ticks
- eighth note = 60 ticks
- eighth note triplet = 40 ticks
- sixteenth note = 30 ticks
- sixteenth note triplet = 20 ticks

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
