Yes, a simple answer (other than watching the video is:)

Summary: You will be creating a BB song (called anything like Song1.sgu), and then creating an audio file (with a name matching the song, so it is song1.aiff), and then creating a folder name for your UserTracks to save to the UserTracks folder containing the song1 biab song and the audio.

1. Choose a name for your user Tracks: e.g. Banjo, Razzmatazz Peter Swing 140
2. Make a folder called /Applications/Band-in-a-Box/RealTracks/UserTracks/Banjo, Razzmatazz Peter Swing 140
3. Type in chords to a BB song, and save that to the Banjo folder you made above, Call that song anything you want, for example Song1 (BiaB adds the extension, so it is called Song1.SGU
4. In Logic (or any other DAW), create a audio file of you playing (in this case banjo) matching the chord progression to song1. Remember the 2 bar intro needs to be added.
5. From Logic, export that file as a aiff, m4a, mp3 or wav file, and save it beside the Song1.sgu with the same name, e.g. Song1.aiff

6. Now you are done, and ready to use your UserTracks! Press the UserTracks button (in 2014 on the Tools Toolbar), and choose the track (e.g. guitar track), and then choose the Banjo, Razzmatazz Peter Swing 140 UserTracks. It will work on whatever chords you type in to any song, any key!

Tip: If you save the song1.aiff as a song1.wav instead then your UserTracks will work for both Mac and Windows users!


Have Fun!
