First off, thanks to forum member, Joanne Cooper, who provided detailed guidelines for creating a lyrics video on her personal blog. Check it out here:
This YouTube video begins with a 30 second intro to one of our new songs, "Drive" which is available for auditioning in the User Showcase. That posting also contains song info about "Drive."
The musical intro of this video was created with BIAB and is titled "Topdown": "Topdown" is an original song featuring Allman Brothers style twin guitars. It currently has no lyrics. The first 30+ seconds of the song are currently used along with original video footage as an intro to other original songs for upload to YouTube. Since all the music in the videos were made with BIAB I gave the proper credit to PG Music in the intro. Hopefully, there will be a full version of "Topdown" in the near future with lyrics. In the meantime, enjoy! ~Rob

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.
This new panel offers built-in specific support for the Reaper® DAW API allowing direct transfer of Band-in-a-Box® files to/from Reaper® tracks!
When you run the Plugin from Reaper®, there is a panel to set the following options:
-BB Track(s) to send: This allows you to select the Plugin tracks that will be sent Reaper.
-Destination Reaper Track: This lets you select the destination Reaper track to receive media content from the Plugin.
-At Bar: You can select a bar in Reaper where the Plugin tracks should be placed.
-Start Below Selected Track: This allows you to place the Plugin tracks below the destination Reaper track.
-Overwrite Reaper Track: You can overwrite previous content on the destination Reaper track.
-Move to Project Folder: With this option, you can move the Plugin tracks to the Reaper project folder.
-Send Reaper Instructions Enable this option to send the Reaper Instructions instead of rendering audio tracks, which is faster.
-Render Audio & Instructions: Enable this option to generate audio files and the Reaper instructions.
-Send Tracks After Generating: This allows the Plugin to automatically send tracks to Reaper after generating.
-Send Audio for MIDI Track: Enable this option to send rendered audio for MIDI tracks.
