Hi there

Any chance we can have some pads for the waltzes real styles. They would sound great!
Thanks BIAB for a great program!

Hi db,

Welcome back to the forum. I'm sure the answer may be obvious to many but I haven't a clue. What are you asking for when you're requesting "some pads for the waltz RealStyles"? I can guess at what your answer might be but would rather know for sure. Can you give some waltz pad examples please?

I think of pads in music as being a sustained synth sound that is used as a string section would be used. Jim has a good point though - is that what is being requested here?

Hi guys

Yes I was referring to the pad strings instrument that we already have in BIAB for 4/4 time. Nothing as yet for 3/4 waltz styles. Working on cruise ships I'm always making tracks for people to dance to. So nice to have the softpad on most tracks I make.

I recently pick up the Strings - Keys Midi Pak for EZKeys. A perfect example of MIDI written specifically to serve as a PAD (strings, synth, ooos and ahhs, atmospheres) in different time signature that matches up perfect with its counterparts for Keys. Very nice indeed.

A string/synth pad for waltzes would be great but so too would some acoustic and electric piano solos in 3/4 time...especially in the jazzy stuff. In fact whole lot of 3/4 solos for many instruments would be great.
And on the subject of chords how about the facility to write chords with (no 3rd)? There are so many things I could think of but I just think the program is fabulous and the creators should be congratulated. The way the business handles post sales inquiries is also great. The staff are courteous and obliging..

Ian,

No third chords are available. They were introduced a few years ago. Simply type X5 where X is the chord root you want.

Regards,
Noel
