So, regardless, of what Style one's song is in, if one wants BiaB to generate a melody, the song has to be in one of those 217 Styles.




In the Melodist window, simply uncheck "Allow Style Change" -- and the Melodist will generate a song using whatever Style file you have already selected in the main BB window.

For example, I had a song in a heavy metal style.
I tried a melody called "Rock 12 String Guitar."
And the memo said "Rock 12 String Guitar * autoloads C_EAGLES.STY."
So the song automatically goes to the C_EAGLES style.
Correct?




Just checked using my copy of BB2009 and if I uncheck the above, any style aready loaded sticks with the newly generated song.

Another thing I noticed.
The first pass through ("chorus") the melody sort of sounded like a 12-string guitar (not really).
But the second time through the sound changed to something sounding a little like a xylophone.

I'm lost. What's happening?





Make sure you didn't have the Generate Solo box checked in the Melodist, sounds like it generated a solo using vibes or something.
