You will see settings for each instrument, where you can choose MUTE or RETURN TO NORMAL. BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile. Software: Studio One 6.5 Pro, Swam horns, Acoustica-7, Notion 6; Win 11 Home.

To be more clear : can we first select some bars and mute them all. I try it, but it seems not to work? It's a pity, it would be so easy . Last edited by trentetrois; 04/11/10 03:01 PM.

I use this all the time to copy verse melodies and chorus melodies/lyrics from one section to another. I experimented with having the only check-box for "bar settings" selected and it did not copy the mute settings nor the return-to-normal settings. I haven't played around with it too much, but It seems that "bar settings" (under "Edit") only copies A and B style. Someone at PGMusic might have a bit more information on this. Have you tried their help line or live chat, or possibly even an email to them? Kind regards, Noel MY SONGS... Audiophile BIAB 2024 audios on Soundcloud

I can also take the mouse, highlight several bars, do a CTRL+C and then a CTRL+V where I want them copied, and the new bars have the bar settings transferred. Perhaps you should do Opt., Return to Factory Settings and close and reload BIAB to try again. Live chat requires no appointment. Click on the ?LiveHelp button at the upper right.

Les deux le troisieme button une boite ave un P majiscule... Puis ensuite deux choses a noter. 1. A gauche au millieux 5 boites... regarder donc la premiere des 5 "Chord Breaks" en anglais...c'est comme un jeux populaire au Quebec "La Fureur" mais toutes les instruments arretent. 2. En bas de ca le Soloist, trade 4's veut dire que il jouera pour 4 measures, et silence pour ton improv. Alors si vous prenez l'air (Melodie) et le copie aux Soloist, puis gele le Soloist vous pouver aussi esseyer ca. Comme les autres on commenter, il y a souvent 3 or 4 methodes pour arrriver au meme but. Excuse encore mon francais de bucheron. John Conley Musica est vita

This sounds like something we should report, then. It seems reasonable that someone would want to copy just the chord settings. The workaround is to copy the chords and the chord settings, then go to the new section and change the chords (if necessary). I'm going to post this in the Wishlist.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
