Hi Bombermusician,

I've seen your Youtube clip and I'm pretty sure that we are talking about the same thing. I interpret what I'm seeing as your asking if chords can be entered for the length of specific note values.

In BIAB chords can be entered on quarter note beats as the minimum unit. Nothing smaller than this is possible without using some specially developed styles. (Norton Music produces some such styles for MIDI.) With this in mind, it's possible to use two, three or four beats for a chord thus a chord could a quarter note long, a half note long, a dotted half note long or a whole note long.

If you are working in MIDI, it's possible to manually enter your chords using the snap feature in Piano Roll view. By entering MIDI chords manually, you could get chords to play as small a value as a 32nd note. I stress, though, this has to be done manually, building up a chord note by note, BIAB will not enter chords automatically to this tolerance.

Realtracks can only be entered as a minimum value of a 1/4 note.

Hope this helps clarify things,
Noel
