I would like to import a particular "hold" into a Cakewalk Sonar project... I know where they are... but they're numbered, not labeled... I need a list of which instruments correspond to which Library/Hold folder #
Wishlist... good suggestion, but that could take a lot longer than compiling the list myself... If I have to do it myself, I will, and I'll certainly share it with the forum.
It would be very helpful to me and to others I'm sure.
A workaround might be to hit New in BB and then enter the chord you want held, with the right Rested instruments assigned, then invoke a RealTrackk on some free track and generate just the hold for Export or Drag 'n Drop to your DAW software.
I apologize for not mentioning the info in the final column of RealTrack selecting. Kudos as always to Rachael. I had incorrectly assumed from your third post that you knew of this, because without that info, I didn't think this job could be done by a user at all.
The good news is that about one-fifth of the RealTracks do not use holds (or PG Music hasn't provided them yet; they keep updating and improving). The bad news is that a few use more than one.
BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile. Software: Studio One 6.5 Pro, Swam horns, Acoustica-7, Notion 6; Win 11 Home. Hardware: Intel i9, 32 Gb; Roland Integra-7, Presonus Studio 192, Presonus Faderport 8, Royer 121, Adam Sub8 & Neumann 120 monitors
I also would like to see a numbered list of which holds belong to which RTs. 2546 plays 119 holds ... a banjo sound. Trying to find the right folder is too time consuming without a list ... F
So as mentioned above the holds used are listed in the holds column in the real track picker. Location X:\bb\RealTracks\Library\Holds X:\bb\RealTracks\Direct Input\Library\Holds
A list of what guitar is being played for Holds_1 Holds_2 . . and what guitar is being played for each real track would help.
Holds are 85bpm
To create a holds list click the holds column to list the holds in order in the real track pick choose copy list save the txt open excel or open office open the txt file import using tab delimiter delete the rows without holds delete the columns other than holds now you have a list the you can search

what you could try is if you have a certain RT loaded, and you know the RT number, follow these steps to find the corresponding holds number (at 5 in red), PS don't OK save anything unless you know what you're doing ! ... :

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
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."
