Hi folks - been a while. Been a while since I've needed some feel help, but i'm having trouble getting the 6/8 feel for a cover of Cohen's Hallelujah.
Any direction would help.
Imported midi still converts to 4 - thanks in advance.
Poppa

Hi Poppa,
In addition to 6/8 styles, there are also some 12/8 styles that might do the job. Also, a slow swing style (because swings are triplet based) would also be worth looking at.
Regards,
Noel

Thanks Danny - getting close now. I'm checking out newer realstyles and realdrums now to see what I need to buy to get what I'm hearing in my head. I think it's RT 107 but will be sure before I buy. PopRockWaltzModern or PopRockWaltzMarch.... we'll see.

Hi
This is how I deal with 6/8 songs with BB. I Convert my midi file melody to 3/4, import in BB has a 3/4 song and select a waltz style with a 6/8 feeling. Just adjust the tempo. You convert the 6/8 notes to 3/4 by just doubling the value of the notes. If you wish, I can sent you my BB version.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

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.

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."
