Posted By: SeaMus Can we copy and paste chords only? - 08/28/12 01:59 AM
It's been a while, but I just tried playing with BIAB and am running into an old problem. I'm trying to copy a line of chords from one position in the song into another position.

1. Has "Search and Replace" been implemented for chords?
2. The "Edit Copy from .. to .." command fails because even if everything else is checked, the tempo map is destroyed on the paste.

The workflow was .wav to ACW (painstaking) line up the measures, attempt to unpainstakingly correct the chords while in BIAB

I'm on 2010 or 2011

Thanks for any suggestions

1 Yes, but I don't know what version it started. It's under Edit in 2012.
2 Don't know, I use "Copy to From" all the time but Tempo Map not so much.

I also use "Copy to From" and it copies the chords but sometimes I have to repeat it just to get the melody copied. I've found that sometimes you have to put things in a certain order to get the job done like get all of your copying and pasting done before working on dynamics and tempos. YMMV
