I should know this but I've forgotten how. How do I get BB to allow me to jump from , say, line 14 to line 17? I just started working on a song when I ran into this issue.

I know there is a setting somewhere to blank out parts of tracks not used. I can't find it right now. I'd sure appreciate the help.

If you don't want the bars can Edit > Delete Bars bars ? or use the Song Form Editor ?

Hi Russel De Mussel

This is off topic from your post, but of interest to me only.
I note that your profile states that your location is USA (Deville, La. USA)

but the website you reference in the footnote of your posts is in Belgium http://www.russell-demussel.be/index.html

I was just interested, how come you live in USA but choose a Belgium website?

Just interested, nothing more.

Thanks Russ. I guess someone else is now using that URL. Who knows crazy
Hope you get your 'how do I' issues resolved quickly though

There are short video tutorials under the support tab\videos in the navigation bar for DC Al Coda, DC Al Fine, DS Al Coda, DS Al fine features.

These all deal with repeats and jumping to bars and one is likely to accomplish what you are attempting with your song.

They are the only BIAB features I'm aware of for jumping bars.

Hope this helps.

Hi Russ. Maybe this has been answered, but just to be sure, could you rephrase this question and give more specifics and context? What are you trying to do?

just a thought.... WWW is supposed to mean World Wide Web.... or so I thought. Although my brother in law thinks it means something about wrestling.

Good memory! That was an amazing collection of BIAB tunes. Much more musical than World Wide Wrestling. But the dark blue with stars web page animated background sent me spinning each visit...

Wes's Wonderful World


Alas, Wesley Dick's site is no more. A lot of files there (which I downloaded many, many years ago). And his commentary on the site was pretty humorous.

For those who don't remember or were never there, here's a link from the WayBack Machine:

Gotta love the Archive.

Russ, like others I don't fully understand your question. I don't remember being able to jump around in BiaB. Can you just cut the unwanted section and close the gap?

I remember both Russ' and Wes' sites.

I think WWW was the Weird Wonderful Web back then.
Wes (and Allanah) had some great BiaB sites. Both rememind of the 90's in internet years.

Here's Allanah's old site via the Archive -
Glitch
Looked better back in the day, obviously not designed for today's browsers. But lots of content!

Russell:

Perhaps what you're thinking of is the "Song Form Maker". (From the "Tools" section of the main menu, click the down arrow and select "Song Form".

Not sure what you mean by "Line 14" and "Line 17" but this tool can be used to "jump around" the song. Say the first part of your song is bar 1 to bar 56. Set that to be the "A Section". Then the part you want to skip is bar 57 to bar 64. Set that to be the "B Section". Then the remainder of the song is bar 65 to bar 80. Set that to be the "C Section".

Now create your song "Form" at the bottom of the Song Form Maker window, to be "AC". BIAB will play bars 1-56, skip 57 to 64, then play 65 to 80.

Not very elegant but may be usable.
Good luck!

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."
