Bar 9 is set to 2 beats using the Bar Settings feature. Everything else is standard 4 beats/bar.

When I do this, I get a pause during playback at the end of the chorus, and the instruments are out of alignment with the chords after that.


Thanks for this.

After setting bar 9 to 2 beats, did you set bar 10 back to 4 beats?

Also... after entering chords on beat 3 in a 2-beat bar, all tracks need to be unfrozen and the song regenerated for the chord(s) to take effect.

Lastly, I've put your above chord progression together and set bar 9 as 2 beats and bar 10 back to 4 beats. I then added an Eb chord on beat 3 of bar 9. After generating the song, it played fine for me (BIAB 2017 build 470).

When you get a chance, can you try the chordsheet that I put together? You can download it from the link below. I'm interested in knowing if it works for you.

Test SGU file with 2/4 in bar 9

P.S. I notice that bar 9 is the last bar of your song. Do you have multiple choruses by any chance?
