1) Is there a way to build in "breaks" into songs at specific area. An example that comes to mind is at the end of the lead section of the song "Peaceful Easy Feeling" by the Eagles. There are two bars where there is a single chord strum that holds for 4 counts before returning to the regular progression. Is there a way to do this in BnB? I've tried building in rests but that cuts the chord off abruptly instead of allowing it to naturally decay.






Hi Johnny,

I had a full head of hair and was playin' Bass the last time I was in a cover band that played this tune, but I think I know what you want to do, you are talking about that one bar before the guitar solo starts in the studio cut of this tune, right?

You don't want a Rest, you really want to invoke a Push on the second chord, second beat of that bar.

That will put the chord on the upbeat of beat one.

Problem is that BIAB will not be able to hit the chord again on beat two's downbeat exactly the way it was played on the record.

But you might be able to get away with just the second chord entered being "Pushed".

To apply a Push in BIAB, RightClick on the bar in question, choose Chord Settings. In the window that opens, use the top Radio Button to select the second chord in the bar, then choose Push by 1/8th in the lower LH side of the Chord Settings window.
