For 6/8 time, which BiaB doesn't support directly, I use either:

1) 3/4 time, where each cell in the BiaB grid becomes half a bar of music

2) 4/4 time with sw 8th notes, which turns each cell in the BiaB grid into two bars of 6/8 music or one bar of 12/8

3) 4/4 time with sw 8th notes, and then use F5 to make the cell in the BiaB grid one bar of 6/8

Of course, this is both song and style dependent. Some 3/4 or sw8 styles won't fit any song, some fit different songs with different degrees of success.

As soon as you stop thinking about a grid in the BiaB matrix as a bar of music, and think of it in terms of 3s and 4s subdivided in halves or thirds, a new world of BiaB opens up.
