If I have recorded 32 bars and the song is to play 3 chorus' the number of chorus are listed in the title bar. If I am recording and turn my head it is easy to lose track of which chorus is playing. Is there a counter in the program which shows the chorus playing?

I assume you are talking about RealBand here: You can insert markers anywhere in your song. The markers are inserted by hitting the "pencil" to the right of the green arrows.

Hey, you big ape, how's it goin?
I use the Notation View (hit the toolbar icon that looks like an 8th note) and let it scroll by as I record.
The Notation View will show the chords, bars and choruses as well as the Bar numbers as it scrolls by.

The pencil should be located about 7 buttons to the right of the "play" (green arrow) button in Real Band.

Thanks Muzic. I was looking in the BIAB program. I forgot about the Real Band Program being included. I never go there. Thanks again. I wasn't paying attention. LOL!!!!

Hi,
In BiaB, the current chorus is shown in the fields where you set the beginning bar/number of bars/number of choruses, where it says 1/3,2/3,3/3 while the song is playing...bit small though, may be hard to read while performing...

Martijn, I am aware of the field you mentioned in your last reply. Muzic, wrote about a pencil feature in Real Band. I have just discovered that Real Band is not included in the Mac 2010 Ultra-Pak hard drive version, but it does include Real Tracks. The Windows version has Real Band included. If I am wrong I will stand corrected, but up to this point I have not located "Real Band" in the Mac 2010 Ultra-Pak version. In case you are wondering, I have the Ultra-Pak on Hard Disc.
So Muzic, I will not be able to locate the pencil you mentioned in your reply. In addition, I guess I was confused of the two terms: "Real Band" vs. "Real Tracks". The titles are close. I having Cubase 5 and Wave Lab resolves any major issue of not having "Real Band" would create. I guess?

RealBand is a PC-only program. Macintosh version users wouldn't receive that program.

Thanks again my old Trumpet playing friend. I kinda figured it out when I could not locate "Real Band" on the hard disk. Well, it didn't change anything. I still want to know if we could include on the wish list a "Chorus" count down indicator which will allow one to view the screen and see which turn around is presently is playing. This should obviously take place when there are for instance 32 bars and the song is to turn around let's say 4 times. What exist now is a fixed indicator showing how many chorus' have been chosen and should play before the song ends. What's your take on this?
