Hi folks, I am writing out a piece which is 3/4, but has two measures in 4/4.
i am right clicking on the appropriate measure, going to bar settings, changing the 0 to 4, and pressing ok. The measure gets underlined in red, and when i check it, the setting for 4 beats in a measure is still there, but when i play the song, it just continues to play all measures in 3/4. someone, please tell me what i am doing wrong!!! thank you... frustrated... Alison

Did you regenerate the song after changing the measures? If not then nothing would change.
I just posted a selfie and all of the responses were get well soon!

Alison I'm presuming that you are using a 3/4 style. In BiaB you cannot add a beat to a bar, you can only take one away. There are two possible solutions: 1: Add a bar at the point you want make the change to 4/4, then either make this bar 1 beat long (you will have a bar of 3/4 and a bar of 1/4), or make this and the preceding bar 2 beats long each. Both ways will give you a total of 4 beats over the two bars. 2: Use a 4/4 style and change to 3 beats per bar at the start using F5 bar settings and then change it to 4/4 at the required bar.

The general rule VideoTrack is solving is that if BIAB uses both 3/4 and 4/4 in the same song, you must start in 4/4.

Another way to achieve your requirement is to use a 3/4 style for the song and use bar settings (F5) at the required bar and change to a 4/4 style, then back to a 3/4 style at the next required bar. However, if the styles don't match well (instrumentation etc) it can often sound as though you changed bands for those bars.

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.
