Outputting MIDI to an External Device

Some external music hardware devices require chords played in root position to drive them in real time. An example of this is the Vocalist. It will let you sing into a microphone and harmonize your voice according to the chords that are input to the device.

Band-in-a-Box has the capability of outputting a separate channel with the chords in root position to support such external devices automatically.

There are also settings such as complexity of chords, output channel, velocity, and note range. It will also drive “Real time Arrangers” like the Roland RA series. The best way to accomplish this is to access the Options | Preferences and select the OutputCh button. You will then be given a window like this:

Click on the Vocalist button if you have such a device connected to your MIDI system. Band-in-a-Box will then send it the appropriate chord information automatically as your song is playing (e.g., root position triads).
