Hello Everyone,
It's Been a long time since I last posted, Mainly cause I've been having trouble with Real Band 2018. I'm still having major issues with it. I just ordered Real Band 2020 and it should be here today. If I still have the same issues, I don't know what I'm gonna do....

On another note....Do any other PGMusic songwriters write songs in more than one time signature or tempo? I have several but have never been able to record them in RealBand. I just made another attempt and it kinda works but it takes a lot of work to get it to this point and I can't really use Realtracks cause it gets all messed up when I try to slow down from 152 tempo at bar 131 to 70 tempo at bar 132, then back to tempo 152 at bar 133.

I also had problems starting the song in 3/4 time at bar 1 then switching to 2/4 time at bar 57. So the instruments in this song is my Acoustic guitar and my bass guitar. I used two different Drum tracks to somewhat get the feel of the different time signatures.

The song is called Didn't I....

With respect. (:
This should be in the song writing forum.

No...I'm not having problems with song writing.....I'm having problems with trying to record it in RealBand....I just tried using RealBand 2020 and am having the same problems....This program isn't able to handle different time signatures and tempos in a single song. Might have to try a different piece of software for those types of songs....

Hi Horst,

I think this will be better noticed if you post your issue in one of these forums:

Beginners Forum - Discussions and Resources for Beginners to Band-in-a-Box or music tech in general

or

Discussion forum for the Windows version of Band-in-a-Box.

or RealBand:
RealBand Forum


You'll possibly have a better chance to get some assistance.
