I have a weekly swing jam and lately we have had a cello player join us. The cello uses the bass clef and not the treble clef and I was wondering if there is a way for BiaB to do this conversion.
I have tried taking a song with a melody in the treble clef and by going into "options" changing the clef to a bass cleb. That just results in chords but no melody written.
Is there some other way this can be done?
Thanks Claudia

Thanks for the tip, but that is not what I am looking for.
Unfortunately, while I was fiddling around within BiaB, I actually did what I was trying to do, but then I couldn't get back to having the songs come up in treble clef, so I had to do a factory reset. <sigh>
I am attaching an image of the final result. The song originally in the treble clef and then again written for those who read the bass clef (my cello player, for instance).
If you -- or anyone else who reads this -- knows how to do it, please respond. And if I figure out how I did it, I promise to put the answer here.

Well, of course after sending my last response, I figured out how to do it. (see attached image)
--> Choose a song (of course) --> At the top bar, choose "Melody" drop-down --> Select "Bass" instead of "Single Channel" --> Go to Lead Sheet Window (alt-W) --> Transpose down one octave (ctrl-alt-1) Voila !
I have a PC, so I think ctrl=cmd and and alt=option in Apple-land )
