Welcome to the forum!

Charlie is right to a point but he failed to mention another point when using mixed time signatures.

When playing a song with dual time signatures you MUST start with 4/4 time in order for Band-in-a-Box (BiaB) to interpet the time signature changes correctly.

When you want a song to start in 3/4 time, begin the song with a 4/4 measure; a "dummy" measure. If the song is 3/4 throughout the song then the song can begin with a 3/4 measure.

Also your questions will be seen by more people if you ask them in the Band-in-a-Box part of the forum. This section is about another feature, UserTracks.
