Hi Silverback,

What you describe sounds like the key of the song hasn't been set. In this instance, that can't be the case, though because you say that you are meticulous with setting this.

A couple of thoughts...

1) Do your accompaniments sometimes pass through other keys? I've found that even though the originally set key signature doesn't change, sometimes incidental key changes can impact on the solo.

If you go to the below link and play "Can You Imagine", you'll see what I mean.

In the bridge (bars 23 - 31, 49 - 57), the song moves through two keys. These are: (a) 23-26 = key D; (b) 27-30 = key A. Even though the original G key setting remains constant, there are two incidental key changes along the way. To get the best out of the accompaniment generation, I found that I had to use F5 to set the key for these two changes and to set it back to G at bar 32.

2) Right click on the Chord Sheet and select Song Settings. Double-check that the setting right down the bottom that relates to transposing audio is set to 0.

If neither of the above suggestions help, can you post a rendering of a problem file so that I can hear it and it may give me extra ideas.

Regards,
Noel
