Howdy All, I'm using a 2010 version of BIAB.

In my song, I want the same exact drum roll to play at bars 4, 12, and 36. Tricky part is, the song arrangement keeps changing randomly during playback and it's hard to get the exact same drum roll at three specific bars in the same run.

How do I set up bar 12 and 36 to play the exact same arrangement as bar 4 for the drum part?

I know I can generate a few different tracks and edit them together. Just wondering if there's a direct way to do this in BIAB.

Thanks, Jonah

Jonah,

BIAB does not allow this degree of control. Realband, on the other hand, does.

If this were my song, I'd open the BIAB file in Realband. Once you've done that, you can cut and paste the drum roll that you want to any bar you like. It's also possible to keep on regenerating sections (a single bar, part of a bar or multiple bars) until you get exactly the sound you want.

This is real strength of Realband. If you follow the link below, there's a Realband video that will explain this ability much better than I can in text.
