I've noticed, that on the Demo Song
"The Cliffs Of Moher (jig) - Pennywhistle"
there is an "artist" Track playing some kind of a whistle.
When I open the Notation, I was astonished, that the notes of this artist track were written down. Was this done automatically or done by hand?
Can I therefore do an Audio recording of me playing the Sax and BiaB would recognize and write down automatically the notation of what I'm playing?

kindofwondering

That's an Artist Performance Track

Yes, you can create your own Artist Performance Track according to Andrew's post in the User Track Forum.

Here's what he said:
7. Artist Performance Files.

These are audio files, that you put on a track, that can also have the MIDI transcription of it. People hear the audio, and see the MIDI in notation/guitar tab etc. For example, if you are a great bluegrass fiddle player, you could put your songs in this format. People can listen to your real playing, see the notes on screen, slow them down etc. - all inside Band-in-a-Box where they can do other things like solo/mute other tracks, mix them etc.


Here's a link I recently did about other features an Artist Performance Track can do.

As mentioned; you see the notes because the MIDI is included.
Some realtracks have notation also. These were done by volunteers initially.

If you want to record your sax and print out the notation (MIDI) you might be better using a tool that was designed for this, like Melodyne.


I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

I assume you mean BIAB will not notate your performance automatically?

My earlier post was taken directly from Andrew of PG Music's Staff Welcome Post on the User's Tracks Forum he made in December 2013.

Unsure and untested, I decided to test and I made an Artist Performance Track and here's a screen shot.

I didn't want to appear to challenge you Matt and as I shared on another thread about Presonus Notion, I don't read music and I'm clueless. Although I know that's notation on the screen, it's accuracy is above my pay grade. I depend on you folks that are more knowledgeable than me to keep me from getting too far off track. wink knowing you'll kindly correct me if I am incorrect.
