Re: Spinning wheel jannesan 2 hours ago Forum: User Showcase
Your music feels familiar, like something I've been gladly listening for decades, and still very Andrew-like. Excellent pop music with BIG and catchy chorus. The chord progression is pure gold. Your voice is genuinely enjoyable and the pleasant band makes it sound even stronger. Very interesting introspective lyrics, I especially felt there was wisdom in "I can’t ignore the good it’s been; searching for the hope unseen, I can’t let go". Hope to get more pop gems from you in 2026 smile Janne

Re: Jazz Chords in DAW Plugin Mike Halloran 3 hours ago Forum: Band-in-a-Box VST/AU and Pro Tools/AAX DAW Plugin (Mac) Jump to new postsJump to new posts
A little OT (but only a little)... G-7 was never a standard entry in Finale either. The developers never could understand why those of us who did theater music wanted it to be a default that we could specify in Preferences. Then someone wondered why Sibelius came to dominate Broadway — and MakeMusic still didn't listen. Now Finale is gone. Glad to see that you brought this up and that PGM is listening.

In the center at the top of the chord page, to the immediate right of the “Song” Button, where you type-in the title of a song that has been arranged for playback. Right above the space that identifies the style of the song.

Re: Not Bad jannesan 3 hours ago Forum: User Showcase
Hilarious!! Funny lyrics, I'm laughing with you. The combination of pleasant jazz and old man's moaning is very unique, I would love to see the reaction of the audience if this was performed in a fine dining restaurant smile Smooth chord progression and the band is simply perfect for the mood. Enjoyed your vocals and "shredding". Please keep on doing these standards breaking tunes that give me joy in the middle of the crazy world. Janne

Re: Selecting triads or four-note chords for a style? janhardo 3 hours ago Forum: Beginners Forum Jump to new postsJump to new posts
Hi, i think they are called sevenh chords , not for now i want to look at stab chords : s(sopran)t(tenor)a(alt) b(bass) chords for now , these are triads with doubling a note I like to enrich the chordprogression in BIAB with fuller chords then only for triads. Hope you get the idea...

Suggested "dual window" mode for performers using iPad sillitojb 4 hours ago Forum: Band-in-a-Box for iOS Jump to new postsJump to new posts
Howdy, I'm a newbie so please excuse any posting faults... I use BIAB on a laptop when performing; love the functionality but cumbersome. I've noticed that cruise ship performers use iPads or tablets which are much less obtrusive. I display both the Chord Sheet, and the Lyric Document windows simultaneously. My suggestion is to allow dual windows to be displayed in the iPad for performers. I have .docx and .pdf versions of screen shots of how I do this on my laptop, and how I would like to do this on my iPad, but neither format is supported here frown

Re: Lead in count on song with no MIDI tracks missing - worked OK on ver 2022 not on 2026 Joseph Land 4 hours ago Forum: Band-in-a-Box for Windows
I don't think it is a problem, rather a program change in 2024 that muted the count in if there is something other then a midi drum or a RT drum there to begin with. And it is not particular to a bluegrass style. The problem appears to be in any style that meets that criteria.

Thanks Mario, Janice, Bud, Andrew and TuneMonger. Chinese instruments are here to bring some peacefulness to this piece. To synchronise Suno AI voice track, TuneMonger, you have to go in Studio and then, you can put the tempo at the right speed (at the very bottom of the page)!
