Hi team,

Good news. Remember the lines that were appearing when trying to print the lead sheet with lyrics? A fix is on the way. Version 435 will address the problem. No time element yet, but it's in the works and that's all that matters.

The BIAB support folks have hit another home run. Well done guys and thanks!

Good to hear Lee! But I have to say that it does need some priority because it is a fairly serious problem for just about all the BiaB users I know. We need to produce lead sheets with the notation and mostly with the lyrics also shown! I think the importance of this has been a bit lost with the pushing of one of the main new features in the 2016 version, which is the multi layered customizable chord chart with the ability to show lyrics. Would I be wrong in thinking that it was the programming of this that caused the problems we have had with producing conventional lead sheets with note-based lyrics? smile

In fact, the promotional video for the 2016 does not even show how great and fast BiaB is for entering notation. I have often said that the entry of chords, notation and lyrics is the easiest and fastest of any music software program on the market! It is always the thing that I find myself talking about to other BiaB users:

Agreed Graham. The sooner the issue is fixed, the better. I write the charts for our bass player, drummer, and myself (keys). The two vocalists, one of whom plays acoustic guitar, rely on words and chords only. During the charting stage, we sync beautifully, but when we start rehearsing the whole house of cards falls in because we have two types of charts where bar numbers and Codas don't always match up. The sooner we're all on the same page and using the same format, the better!
