Hi, I want to load a solo and take out bars I don't like without leaving any gaps. Say I just have an Ebm9 vamp and load a john coltrane solo but want to condense it so only my favourite bars remain without the gaps where bars would be deleted.

How do I do this? I have 2014, but about to upgrade.

Thanks!

I'm not quite sure what you mean but if you are saying that you have already generated a solo and you want to eliminate particular bars of the generated file and then piece the remaining bars into a coherent performance, I cannot see how this can be accomplished while remaining in BIAB.

If, on the other hand, you save the file as a "Performance file" in BIAB, you could then alter this file as you want in Realband (or a DAW) and then re-save the file with the exact same name as the performance track. BIAB would then load the new performance track when the song is restarted. The performance track needs to be in the same directory as the song file.

To get the new performance file and the current chord sheet to synchronise...

Open the song file in the BIAB without the performance track attached (to do this, simply rename the performance track prior to opening the song). Now delete the number of bars you modified from the appropriate section of the song. Save and close the song. Rename the performance track to its original name and re-open the song. The new performance track should be aligned with the modified song file.

Hope these thoughts help,
Noel

Use a DAW.

There are several ways to do this.... here's the one I use all the time to audio edit a track.


First, let BB or RB render the same track several times... use envelopes to do the edits. THis is a song where I used 5 tracks to make the solo work.... 3 tracks on piano fills. It's called The Best Christmas and it's on my music web site page.



You can also set the snap to grid setting for MEASURE...and remove entire measures perfectly. You can also slide things over, slide them apart, paste new measures in their place... and even work on smaller sections the same way as full measures.


You can find my music at:

Add nothing that adds nothing to the music.
You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

This is more complicated than I'd hoped, What is a Muliti Riff??? All I want to do is edit the Soloist as a Midi file (it's a midi soloist, BTW...). If I can't do extensive editing (getting rid of say 20 bars etc) in BIAB, then how do I export the Soloist's Midi data into another editing program?

MultiRiff is a feature in RealBand. It allows you to generate multiple musical phrases for a selected number of bars, and audition them individually, choosing one that best suits if required.
