I'm trying to enter the chords to a Cajun song that has an A and a B part. The trick is in the B part where at the end of the song, there is an extra 1/2 measure before returning to the A Part. How do you enter the 1/2 measure? I tried messing with the "Pushes, Shots and held Chrods" menu but that is not what I'm looking for....
Thanks.. Tom

Try <Edit-Settings for current bar>. Later, Ray

Yes - as above. Look for "# beats this bar" and make it 2.
Dont forget to change the next bar (and therefore subsequent ones) back to 4.

I think what Ray means is change your beats per measure to 1/2 that of the previous measure. You will do this where he points you to.
This is relevant to 4/4 time. For example, if your time is 4/4 set the 1/2 measure to 2/4 time. If your song is in 3/4 or another time it becomes more tricky. You may have to set up your changes over multiple bars.
In doing so you will want to change the next measure back to original beats. If this means you are cycling to the first measure then be sure to set the number of beats. BIAB will basically ignore this on the first chorus but will acknowledge when you return to that measure.

Happy Musiking!

Thanks.. Tom Actually, you should lay it out on the Chord Sheet such that both your A and B parts are in one BB chorus. Then invoke the Bar Settings to change the last bar before the repeat to 2 Beats. --Mac
