About your first question, could you cite the page in the manual where it says that, please? I agree with John and perhaps it's an error.

For the second question, there are often different ways to do things in BIAB. In this case, you could also go to Options, Preferences, Channels and change the number in the Melody row, second column, from 0 to -1 to sound down an octave, or to 1 to sound up an octave, without changing the notation.
