Hi. BIAB 2019 Pro. If I've entered the first 8 bars of a song, is there a way to play back just those bars without needing to stop it from playing to the end as if the last chord I entered is entered all the way to the end of the song? Seems like I should be able to highlight the bars I want played back or something...
Actually, I think I might have misread what you were wanting. I'll leave the above post, though, because it gives some insight into BIAB.
I wonder if what you are experiencing is due to the default of BIAB playing 3 choruses.
Check that the number I've highlighted below is set to 1.
On the image below, the song will cycle through 3 times because it has been set to 3 choruses.
Another thought...
Under 'Loop' in the previous post, there is also and option that says "ALWAYS loop entire song"... if this has a check/tick beside it, it is active. Click on it to remove the checkmark.
Hi, thanks for the information. Sorry for my lack of clarity. I'm just trying to get a once-through play of selected bars. A better example - I have 32 bars of a song entered, and I want to play bars 9 through 16... I would intuitively highlight bars 9 through 16 and hit play, expecting it to start at bar 9 and stop after bar 16. But that starts play at Bar 1 and goes through Bar 32. I can dbl click to get it to start at the correct bar, and hit space to stop it where I want, so it doesn't play to the end. Seems there should be a better way, but I guess it's a small thing
Select the 'Play from Bar' Button located beside the Loop Button (You can also double click bar 9 and achieve the same result)
Enter 9
The song will start at bar 9 and stop after bar 16
If you set the start to 9 and end at 16 and leave the chorus's at 3, Manually start the song at bar 9 as described above and Bars 9-16 will play through 3 times and stop.
<< I've entered the first 8 bars of a song, is there a way to play back just those bars without needing to stop it from playing to the end as if the last chord I entered >>
In this instance, or any instance in which the number of bars in your song is different than 32, change the 32 to the correct number of bars of your song. In your case here, change the 32 to 8. If you leave chorus's set at 3, Bars 1-8 will play through 3 times and stop. Change the 3 to 1 and the song will start at 1 and stop at bar 8 after playing through once.
Your song does not have to be just 32 bars. It can have any number of bars up to a maximum of 255 bars.
