Can BB generate a basic solo piano comp over a given progression? Full chords in the right hand, one or two note bass in the left, some rythmic variety and no huge hand stretches or leaps.

I've tried some styles that generate piano parts, but the results were either too simplistic or not very playable. I'm a relative beginner looking to improve my piano sight reading skills.

gminor,

Welcome to the forums.

I'm not sure how effective this would be but you could try generating some of the Realtrack piano accompaniments. The Piano Realtracks were physically played by world-class musicians. As such, they should be (a) playable and (b) a reasonable standard.

If you download the zip file at the below link, you'll find that is contains a pdf and a BIAB file. The pdf was obtained by generating Realtrack #811.

Just a thought.

Regards,
Noel

Thanks, Noel. It is still unplayable, but it makes the problem clear: BB incorrectly distributes notes between the hands.
A lot of low notes on the top staff (right hand) must be on the bottom one (left hand) for human hands to be able to play these intervals.

Perhaps this can be fixed in another software, like Finale or Sibelius?

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!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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.
