BIAB will NOT change to 4/4 if it starts with a 3/4 style. You must start with a 4/4 style, and then you can change to 3/4 and back to 4/4 within the song. I think BIAB is able to take away beats, but not to add beats, so if you start with 3/4, it can't add the extra beat to play 4/4.

I've had problems before with Bob Norton's method, in that depending on when you stop the song, it doesn't reset to the 4/4 when you try to play through again. What I usually do is set the style to 4/4, make the 1st bar silent (or just a drum intro), and then start 3/4 on bar 2. So effectively, my song starts on bar 2 with 3/4, rather than bar 1.

I would say just experiment with it and use what works for you.

You should go to the wish list and ask that this be changed, as you shouldn't need to do thik kind of workaround. However, it's been this way a long, long time.
