Question about "variable tempo" support. #764967 05/10/23 04:05 PM Band-in-a-Box VST and Pro Tools/AAX DAW Plugin (Windows)

I work in logic and do a lot of free tempo recording playing acoustic and singing country/pop songwriter stuff. Logic seamlessly averages tempo of the file when it prints, which is fine. But for ritardandos or live-feel sometimes I want to leave it variable and be able to have BIAB follow the tempo map in Logic. This would be absolutely amazing and make BIAB a force to be reckoned with. Also, to have some way BIAB be can easily and accurately interpret the polyphonic audio right out of the DAW with an improved ChordWizard in the plugin would also be remarkable. This is clearly within reach for the good folks on the development team, and I think this functionality has come of age. Can I get a witness?? God bless everyone. Thanks P.S. I need to update my footer system info as am currently running latest Logic on 2020 MacBook Pro M1. I currently use BIAB 2022 from the desktop and from the BIAB external drive, not natively. Please let me know if I’m missing anything - like if this variable tempo functionality I mentioned is already available in BIAB '23 for Mac (or Windows for that matter)…in the VST/AU. Thx again Last edited by Andrew - PG Music; 05/12/23 07:23 AM. Reason: Moved to separate thread MacBook Pro 13-inch M1 2020 Logic Pro 10.7.7 BIAB 2022 UltraPAK for Mac, run from USB Drive

You can use the bar settings dialog in the plugin to change tempo at certain bars. Once the tracks are generated though they are set at that tempo when played by the plugin. Quote: ...to have some way BIAB be can easily and accurately interpret the polyphonic audio right out of the DAW with an improved ChordWizard in the plugin The Audio Chord Wizard is a feature of the main Band-in-a-Box application, and we currently do not have a plugin version of it.
