I usually have the part track volumes set to 120, or so. I was arranging a tune today with lower volumes and with the lower volume, I noticed the 'Lead In' clicks playing during the melody pick-up notes.
I've tried all possible combination's of "Lead In" options in the Pref's panel and nothing stopped it from playing during the two pick-up melody notes. Naturally, I don't want the clicking present during these notes. But, I do want them leading up to the pick-up notes.
I'm thinking this is a bug (as I said, I tried all obvious pref options) - am I missing something?
Thanks for advice...

Hello Outwest, This can be done for MIDI drums by selecting the "Smart lead-in" checkbox in Band-in-a-Box | Preferences. However, it can't currently be done with RealDrums. If you are using RealDrums, here is one work-around, assuming you aren't using your Soloist track. 1. Unselect 'Audible leadin' 2. Set the Soloist track to multichannel (Soloist menu | Track type). 3. Go to Soloist | Edit Soloist Track | Import Soloist from MIDI file. Open the MIDI file "count-in.mid". Make sure that the "# of blank bars..." setting is set to 0. Here is the file: http://nn.pgmusic.com/pgfiles/support/misc/bb_count-in.zipYou can edit the "bar 0" drum notes on the Soloist track, e.g. to delete the last two notes for a pickup.

Thanks. Seems like a good bit of work so I'll stick with muting the unwanted clicks in GarageBand since I do use the Soloist track. Is this something that will be addressed in the next update? Thanks, from outwest where the sun is shining (at the moment)

You're right, the Smart-Lead-in option should mute the RealDrums countin too, but doesn't. Will fix that in future versions.
