Hallo zusammen, ich finde nichts dazu wie man in BiB Pre-Chords einfügt, ich bin mir leider nicht sicher ob der Begriff stimmt für das was ich suche, deshalb meine Erklärung: Ich habe einen Song bei dem sich die Akkordfolge durch das ganze Lied zieht, Strophe gleich wie Refrain.. ich möchte aber das man den Übergang zum Refrain raus hört (Schlagzeug) wie bei jedem anderen Lied halt auch... nur finde ich nicht wie man das einstellt, weder auf YouTube noch hier im Forum. Kann natürlich daran liegen das ich nicht wirklich weiß wie man so einen Übergang nennt. Ich würde mich sehr über eine Hilfestellung oder eine Link zu einem Tutorial freuen. Vielen Dank schon mal im Voraus Grüße, Walter

Hallo Walter.
Herzlich willkommen im Forum!
Die relativ naheliegende Methode in Band in a Box ist der Sub-Stylewechsel, weil dort meist auch schon ein passender Drum-Fill-in zwischen den Parts eingebaut ist und sich die Begleitung stilistisch unterscheidet. Substyles sind stilistische Variationen ein und desselben Styles.
So geht das praktisch:
Du gibst deine Akkorde ein. In dem Takt, an dem der Refrain beginnt, klickst du mit der rechten Maustaste auf die kleine Zahl (die Nummer des Taktes) und wählst dort einen Substyle (meistens b, wenn der Hauptstyle den Substyle a hat) oder auch c oder d, die du selbst mit anderen Styles belegen kannst. Zusätzlich klicke in diesem Menu an "Ermögliche Drum Fill für diesen Takt ...". Du erkennst dann in der Chordsheet-Ansicht den Substylewechsel als andersfarbige Markierung und der kleine Buchstabe zeigt den neuen Substyle für die folgende Sektion an.
Ich hoffe, ich habe deine Frage richtig verstanden, weil Pre-Chord für mich erstmal in eine andere Richtung wies.
Viel Erfolg!

Hallo Brille,
vielen Dank für dein Antwort, das hab ich gemeint.. Klappt auch sehr gut, nur das ganze ist ein bisschen kurz, kann man das länger machen oder mehr Schlagzeug?
Oder wäre sowas nur mit einem echten Schlagzeug möglich?
Grüße, Walter

Hallo Walter.
Welchen Style setzt du ein, ist das MIDI-Style oder ein RealTrack-Style? Die Länge und Spielart des Drum Fillins ist in der Styledatei festgelegt und zumindest bei RealTracks auch nicht ohne Weiteres änderbar. So wie es klingt, wurde es vone chten Musikern eingespielt. Eine Reihe Styles haben auch Groove-Varianten innerhalb der Substyles zur Auswahl (Brush, Ride etc.). Es gibt auch Tricks, z.B. mehrere "Part marker" taktweise wechselnd hintereinander zu setzen. Die Fillins sind auch von Akkordwechseln in den Takten abhängig.
Bei allem bedenke: Du kannst mit Band in Box zwar eine Band ersetzen, ihr aber sousagen nicht in allen Einzelheiten vorschreiben, was sie zu spielen hat. Band in a Box ist also kein "Notensatzprogramm".

Hallo Brille,
besten Dank für deine schnellen und hilfreichen Antworten.
Ich werde das mit dem mehreren Part markern versuchen.
Nochmals vielen Dank.
PS: wie du merkst, bin ich ein absoluter Neuling. Gibt es eigentlich Kurse für die Software oder bietet hier im Forum jemand so was an?

Hallo Walter,
es gibt zu Band in a Box das deutsche Handbuch als PDF (im Moment noch Version 2017, die deutsche Übersetzung für die brandneue Version 2018 wird wohl wieder von Ernst Leobacher übernommen und wird in ein paar Monaten erscheinen), sowie auf Youtube einen ganze Reihe Video-Tutorials (sowohl in Englisch als auch von Youtube-Userin "mossite" auf Deutsch, wenngleich letztere noch zu Zeiten früherer BiaB-Versionen entstanden sind). Sekundärliteratur, also irgendwelche Bücher anderer Autoren zum Thema, gibt es nicht, auch nicht in englisch.
In Deutschland veranstalten Wolfgang Wierzyk oder Harald Wehnhardt von Zeit zu Zeit Kurse, Workshopwochenenden und Fortbildungen für Musiklehrer und Privatanwender, etwa auf Burg Fürsteneck oder in der Landesmusikakademie in Berlin.
BiaB bietet allerdings wirklich erschlagend viele Werkzeuge und Möglichkeiten, auch ein Wochenendseminar geht da nur auf die Basics ein. Es ist tatächlich nicht schlecht, sich selbst durch die Materie zu arbeiten, auch wenn das bisweilen viel Kopfzerbrechen macht.
Und es gibt natürlich immer auch das Forum hier für knifflige Fragen, im deutschen und im Besonderen auch in den englischen Forenbereichen sind wirklich viele nette und kompetente User unterwegs, die oft rasch eine gute Antwort wissen.
Viel Erfolg!

Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
