Hi Gary,

That's exactly how BIAB is playing them for me.

In the ABC file, the notes in bar 1 are written as follows: FF=F/^F3/

"=" before a note indicates a natural, "^" indicates a sharp.

So we have two Fs (which are automatically sharped by the key signature), then "=F" (which means F natural, and is how it was notated by Band-in-a-Box, with a natural sign), then ^F, which indicates a sharp, but plays a G since F is already sharp.

If I look at bar 1 in the Piano Roll, I see two F#s, then an F, then a G. Do you see something different?

I'm not saying that the notes don't sound discordant, but Band-in-a-Box does appear to be playing what was written in the ABC file, unless I'm missing something (which is entirely possible).

Thank you
