Hi again.

The repeat sections that you mention are designed for use with fakesheets. In other words, they are for music notation and not performance. For this reason, when BIAB does the repeat, the material that was generated for used in the "first time through" is not repeated. If you want it to repeat, you need to use Audio Edit and copy the first-time-through bars and then paste them into the repeat section. This is another reason for strongly encouraging you to use a linear layout without repeats an multiple choruses.

Here are a couple of ways that you can create what you need.

[A] Expanding the view so you can work on the second-time-through bars.
1) Go to BIAB's standard view. (CTRL+T is the toggle to go between full-screen and standard views).
2) Click on "Fakesheet" (#1 on the image below).
3) Remove the check against "Display chordsheet in fakesheet mode". (#2).
4) Click on the "Bass" track to give it the focus. The message you received about "no realtracks on this track" is because the focus was on a different track (probably the Melody track).

When you uncheck this, you will see all your repeat chords. BIAB lays out the chordsheet in the same linear fashion that it plays it. The repeated sections will be grayed out. Like before, you can work on these grayed out bars using Multiriff (F8) to partially regenerate and change the bass to how you want it. When you have finished, activate option #2 again and the chordsheet will return to a fakesheet mode of display.

[B] Using Audio Edit
1) Again switch to Standard View using CTRL+T (my images are in this mode),
2) Select "Audio Edit" (#1 on the image below).
3) Select "Snap" so that the mouse cursor will snap to the bar lines.
4) Select the Bass track (#2 on the image below)

5) Position the mouse at the bar you want to start the regeneration and drag the mouse across the bars that you want to regenerate (#3 on the image below).
6) Select the "Edit" (#4) and then choose the "Regenerate" options (#5, #6.

You can also use this edit menu to copy bars from the early part of the bass track where you have already done the bass and paste the copied bars and the new location.

Hope this helps,
