New Forum - My Favorite Things - Post about your Favorite Features in Band-in-a-Box and RealBand.
This forum is an area to discuss your favourite features in Band-in-a-Box and RealBand. What feature do you use the most, and why?
Note: If you start a new thread, you should focus on a feature that hasn't yet been covered in another thread. For example, if someone has already started a thread about printing lead sheets, you should continue that thread rather than starting a new one.

Thanks Andrew, The features I use most often are RealDrums and the Chord Chart in the VST within Reaper. The former is a mile easier, & better, than programming while the latter makes tracking much, much easier for a person like me who writes frequently but rarely actually learns a song. Yes, I use BIAB to write, I like using the FORM dialogue to experiment with structure &I use B3 RTs often but RD + Chord Chart are part of 95% of my finished songs.

Convenient Ways to Listen to Band-in-a-Box® Songs Created by Program Users!
The User Showcase Forum is an excellent place to share your Band-in-a-Box® songs and listen to songs other program users are creating!
There are other places you can listen to these songs too! Visit our User Showcase page to sort by genre, artist (forum name), song title, and date - each listing will direct you to the forum post for that song.
If you'd rather listen to these songs in one place, head to our Band-in-a-Box® Radio, where you'll have the option to select the genre playlist for your listening pleasure. This page has SoundCloud built in, so it won't redirect you. We've also added the link to the Artists SoundCloud page here, and a link to their forum post.
We hope you find some inspiration from this amazing collection of User Showcase Songs!

Video: Enhanced Melodists in Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows®!
We've enhanced the Melodists feature included in Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows!
Access the Melodist feature by pressing F7 in the program to open the new MultiPicker Library and locate the [Melodist] tab.
You can now generate a melody on any track in the program - very handy! Plus, you select how much of the melody you want generated - specify a range, or apply it to the whole track.
See the Melodist in action with our video, Band-in-a-Box® 2024: The Melodist Window.
