Hi Fred,

To create a backing track in BIAB, simply add a chord progression in "Chord View".



Save the song. (I use a custom directory for each of my songs rather than simply save them to the \bb folder.) When saved the song will have either an SGU or MGU extension. For example "Yesterday.sgu".

Open up Realband and navigate to the song and open it. (Realband will open files created in BIAB.) Wait about a minute while it loads and builds the tracks and then you have the song in Realband. Save it, and it will create an SEQ file (this does not open in BIAB.)

Here are some Realband video tutorials that it would be worthwhile sitting through. They will help you get a feel for how the program works.

Also, if you type "Realband" (without quotation marks) into Youtube, you'll get some great videos on how to make the program fly.

Hope this helps,
Noel
