Thanks for responding, here are some more details of my scenario.

First off, I'm running Band-in-a-Box 2021 for Mac. I don't know the build, but I've confirmed that the latest updates are in place. The Mac is on the latest OS (Monterrey).

As I mentioned in my first post, I play tenor sax, which is a transposed instrument (Bb), so I use the BIAB transposition feature to set my chart to display properly for tenor sax. This means that for a song that's in concert D, the playback is in D, but the chords display as E. (I'm sure all of you already know this, but I'm just trying to cover all the bases!) When I start a new song, BIAB recalls this setting from my previous song, so the transposition is already set.

So here are the steps I followed for this specific song (Wave):

1. Open a new song; BIAB displays a blank chord chart in C (or maybe D since the transposition is already set, I can't recall). Next to the key signature, the transposition box displays +14 for tenor sax, as in the attached photo.
2. Change the key signature to E.
3. Enter the chord sequence.
4. In this song, measure 9 is C#-7 on beat 1, F#7 on beat 3. I enter those chords, and BIAB changes them to Db-7, Gb7. Obviously, this is not what I want.

I hope this makes things more clear. As I noted before, PG Music says I can't get these chords to display correctly, but if you know of a way to do this, I'd love to hear it!
