Band in a Box calls it a "Tag" -- BB often uses pro session terminology that once may have been slang, but has become part of the compendium through usage. "Coda" is from classical musics, and means the same thing.

30. How do I use tag endings? Why does the 'tag exists' box sometimes become unchecked automatically?

In Band-in-a-Box, a tag is a group of bars played after the final chorus of a song. You can find tag settings under Edit | Settings (for this song). Set the 'Tag exists' field to Yes and then choose the tag starting and ending bars. If you have "Generate 2 bar ending" selected, the ending will play automatically after the tag.

Note that the tag will only work if there is more than one chorus. If you placed a checkmark in the 'tag exists' box in the song settings dialog, and it became unchecked, this means that your song is set to have only one chorus. In this case a tag is irrelevant because it would simply be the last bars in your chorus.


Rightclick on the bar where you want to jump to the Coda or Tag, then select Song Settings.

Note the Tag Exists area near the bottom of the Song Settings window, fill it out to suit.
