Hi Guys,

Most of what I do in BB is play songs imported from collections, i.e. Real Book, etc.. However, recently I've started creating my own songs and transcribing songs from other sources, and a couple of problems I am encountering have me scratching my head:

1. If I enter chords, say, in an 8-bar section, then enter a repeat for those 8 bars, BB will play the chord progression correctly the first time through the repeated section, but afterwards, it just plays the last chord encountered before the repeat and ignores all my nicely-entered changes on the repeat! What's up with that?

2. I didn't see a way to make an entire song in 2/4 time, so I used Edit/Set Time Signature (range of bars), and used bar 1 thru bar xx (end of song). If I enter a chord on the first half of the bar and the second half of the bar, BB ignores the second chord, as if it's skipping over it.

Could I be missing something obvious? If not, I'm surprised that BB is having problems interpreting such basic musical elements as 2/4 time and a simple repeated section. If there are fixes or workarounds to these problems, I'd sure like to be enlightened. Thanks.
