Delete or remove melody or soloist in BB? #318798 11/16/15 04:30 AM Band-in-a-Box for Windows

When looking to find an appropriate track for something I added an instrument to the melody and or soloist track, but it seems if I change the band in style picker those instruments change. The issue is sometimes they don’t suit the new style I’ve picked and yes I know I can mute them but I’d rather just remove them.

A similar process applies to the Melody track using "Melody" on the very top menu. Regards, Noel my lastest song: Can You Imagine MY SONGS... Audiophile BIAB 2025 audios on Soundcloud
