I can see by the PartMarkers the style change is coming and which style will be playing. I can see the instruments that will be playing before I ever play the song.



Yes, you can know that the style will change through partmarkers.
Each style is generally represented by five musical instruments, such as numbers.
Style a is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Style C is 6,7,8,9,10
If I want to use bar setting to control style a, I will find that it is still 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 of style C in bar setting
If you join the real track, it will be more troublesome
Or join the normal track. When is the sound not controlled in the bar setting? I haven't tried this yet.
I discussed the problem of sudden mute when the style changes

Bar settings are easy to do although one can't 'see' the instrument. If you create the MultiStyle and song, you'll know what's playing. The idea is to encourage users to assimilate complex arrangements with many instruments and styles within the BIAB program without having to use a DAW.

Here's a video showing that not only using PartMarkers and MultiStyles but also using Bar Settings and additional RealTrack instrument changes. If a user wanted to have even a more complex arrangement in this video, they could continue to add instruments onto the 11 tracks that aren't in use in the video as well as applying volume automation for muting/ unmuting instruments.

Plus, each of the 24 tracks can have up to 10 additional RealTracks placed throughout the track. The MultiStyle demo is a really simple arrangement and I barely touched the surface in the demonstration to making the existing arrangement more complex.
