Hi,
Please excuse my BIAB/musical ignorance. I'm trying to enter notation on a piano staff. Mostly (so far) it's going OK but I don't seem to be able to enter notes lower than C5 (tick 29)?? on the treble clef staff lines. Have tried to find info in manual etc. but no success. Help/advice would be appreciated. Thank you. David

That's true, such pitches are entered on the bass clef. Let me check later if this default can be changed. In the meantime, look in Preferences, Notation to see if you can change the split point.

In Notation Edit view, go to Options and locate the area with dropdown near center bottom. Here you can set the Split Point such that you would have ledger lines and notes below where middle C is currently set.
For example, changing that setting to C4 would extend down one octave.

Thank you for the advice. I've tried playing around with the options but can't really get treble notes below C5....I can get high treble notes low bass notes but nothing in the middle section ?! It must be achievable as they can be seen on music loaded from a file. However, I notice that if I hover the curser over these notes it's value doesn't show up in the panel next to the edit options ? Thanks, David

Do you have it set to show Grand Staff View, with both treble and bass clefs showing? Set it for single treble instrument.
Also, I once had a problem with that, and it took going under the Options menu and doing a Return to Factory Settings to get things back right again.

Sadly it's a 2011 version ! and no I haven't installed the latest update files for it !! Which I guess may not help...but does it explain why the "file" songs have the lower treble clef notes showing ? Thanks again.

Here is a link to the Update file, worth downloading and installing, even if it doesn't fix your current problem, though it might: http://www.pgmusic.com/support_windowsupdates.htm#319b

Hi Mac, Thanks for the link I've installed it but the problems remains....also installed the update for the "Essential Blues Guitar Vol. 2" as I was feeling guilty...now that's crashed completely !! I'll have to leave bb for a while now and get back to it in a couple of days. Thanks for your help and best wishes for the New Year, David

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."
