Does the 'breath measure' have a different number of counts from the other measures?
For example, do the other measures have 4 beats and the 'breath' measure have 2 beats?
If this is the case, in the equivalent of the 2-beat cell, put a chord on the non-playing beat, beat 3. Since BIAB has 4 chord positions within a cell, in a 2-beat scenario only beats 1 and 2 are being used. Putting a chord on beat 3 corrects the generating of the Realtrack.
Sorry, I should have said I inserted a measure in the middle and at the end of each verse & chorus. I didn't change styles, beats per bar or anything else, just inserted those bars.
This is played 6/8, although there is not a 6/8 selection it plays like 6/8. Kick on 1, stick on 4.
A better explanation of the problem would be that until the extra measure happens, the kick is on beat 1 of M1, then the stick is on beat 1 of M2 and so on. After the extra bar, I WANT the same pattern, but it's playing the stick on beat 1 M1 and kick on beat 1 M2.
The time signature of 6/8 is one that is not native to BIAB. Because of this, it is actually difficult to interpret your information accurately and to know how best to respond to help you.
If you could provide us with a view of your BIAB chord sheet in the standard view mode that would help immeasurably. To this...
1. Use CTRL+T to switch from 'full-screen mode' (if you are using that) to 'standard view mode'.
2. Load the song and generate it to make sure that all Realtracks, midi tracks and drums are showing.
3. Press 'Printscreen' to capture the desktop and load it as an image onto the clipboard.
4. Open the program 'Paint' that comes with Windows.
5. Use CTRL+V to paste the image on the clipboard into Paint. Do not modify the image in any way.
6. Save the image in Paint as jpg.
7. Go to the link below and follow the instructions for adding an image to a post.
8. Let us know which bar number, mid-song, causes the playback to go awry.
Below is a screenshot of my computer and the chordsheet-view that I need to see that will help provide me with insight into your settings. Then, hopefully, I might be able to help with accuracy rather than simply guess what might had happened.
I've loaded in all the settings and tracks you have and I can re-create the problem you are experiencing.
As mentioned in my post above, 6/8 is not native to BIAB. To use this time signature, it's necessary to be creative. This particular style recreates 6/8 by having two bars of fast 3/4. This gives the feeling of six beats to the bar. It is important to keep in mind, though, that it is accomplished by using two bars of music.
The fact that this time signature requires these two bars for the six beats is where the problem lies. It explains why the drums unsynchronised. Because you added a single bar (bar 18) to give some 'breath', from the music's perspective, you've only added half a 6/8 bar (i.e. two bars are needed for the full six beats).
As a consequence of the above, the net effect is that instruments seem to be displaced by half a bar from bar 19 onwards.
If you want to maintain the same 6/8 feel throughout, it's necessary to add two bars in the middle and not just a single bar.
You may be able to accomplish "adding a breathe" by using the F5 button to open the F5 menu and then applying a tempo change for one or two bars.
While everything depends on the original tempo of the song, I've found slowing the tempo about 5% works well. Don't forget you have to use F5 in the following bar to set the tempo back to the song's original bpm.
User Video: Band-in-a-Box® + ChatGPT = Impressed the BOSS!
Since AI is now readily available online as a resource for many things, we recently put together and shared a video where we demonstrated how to create a song using Band-in-a-Box®, ChatGPT, and Synth V; we've also shared a Bob Doyle Media video, Convert MIDI Chords into AI Vocal Harmonies with ACE Studio and Band in A Box, showing how they utilize AI for their song projects. Now it's time to share Henry's video, Band-in-a-Box + ChatGPT = Impressed the BOSS!, where he demonstrates how to use ChatGPT and Band-in-a-Box to whip a song project together in only 3-4 hours.
Visit Henry Clarke's YouTube Channel, Henry Clarke - Senior Musicians Unite, to find a large collection of tutorials showing the viewer how to achieve amazing results using Band-in-a-Box®!
If you've reviewed our Support page, you've probably noticed the Videos page, which separates our Band-in-a-Box® tutorial videos by category: Overview, VST DAW Plugin, Setup, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and there's even an Archive category to go down memory lane... (You'll also find these videos on our YouTube Channel.)

User Video: Convert MIDI Chords into AI Vocal Harmonies with ACE Studio and Band-in-a-Box®
The Bob Doyle Media YouTube channel is known for demonstrating how you can creatively incorporate AI into your projects - from your song projects to avatar building to face swapping, and more!
His latest video, Convert MIDI Chords into AI Vocal Harmonies with ACE Studio and Band-in-a-Box, he explains in detail how you can use the Melodist feature in Band-in-a-Box with ACE Studio. Follow along as he goes from "nothing" to "something" with his Band-in-a-Box MIDI Melodist track, using ACE Studio to turn it into a vocal track (or tracks, you'll see) by adding lyrics for those notes that will trigger some amazing AI vocals!
