Hello Alan;

Thank you for your response!

I understand the music theory you're speaking of, but I'm not a BIAB adept (yet). So, I'd like to take you up on your offer of walking me through the techniques, if I may.

After I finished my list of questions, I saw that it's a bit long - I apologize for the laundry list nature of it. It would be quite understandable for you not to answer all or any of them.

  • How to enter poly chords/pedal points like B4/F
  • How to create the "short detours" you mention - is it simply a matter of adding a new chord progression?
  • How to create a repeating root progression
  • How to add holds and shots
  • What does your nomenclature of "|Csus...bd ^Dsus...bd|" mean?
  • I've never heard of a crunch voicing - may I ask what you mean?
  • How does one specify voicings explicitly?
  • Might you explain what you mean by "a novel use of it's melody harmony feature"?


Thank you very much for your time Alan,
vic
