Hallo miteinander,
ich arbeite zur Zeit noch mit BiaB 2012 und habe folgendes Problem: Da ich in einer kleinen Big Band mit 13 Musikern Alt-Baritonsax und Klarinette spiele und die alten vom Bandleader und Arrangeur handgeschriebenen Noten mit Band in a Box notieren und üben möchte, habe ich das Problem, das das Transponieren in einem Song (meiner Ansicht nach) nur für ein Instrument vorgesehen ist. Gibt es hierfür inzwischen eine Lösung? Ich denke, dass ich nicht der Einzige bin, den das betrifft. Und unverschämterweise noch eine zweite Frage zur Notation: Wie kann man längere Bläserpausen (z.B 8, 12, 24 Takte) notieren, ohne dass man ein mehrseitiges Werk ausdrucken muss, aber BiaB trotzdem den Titel in voller Länge spielt?

Grüße und vielen Dank

Hallo supertwenty,
willkommen im Forum!
Es ist mit Band in Box möglich, unterschiedlich transponierende Instrumente auszudrucken. Allerdings kannst du die nicht unterschiedlich selbst notieren. Band in a Box ist auch in der neuesten Version ja kein klassisches Notensatzprogramm, mit dem du mehrere Spuren von Hand setzen kannst. Du kannst lediglich die Melodiespur individuell setzen, dann Akkordchanges über die Takte angeben und alle anderen Spuren werden dann je nach gewähltem Style von Band in a Box generiert – diese sind aber auch transponiert je nach Instrument ausdruckbar.

Notationsverkürzungen, wie Faulenzer oder verdichtete Pausen über mehrere Takte lassen sich in Band in a Box nicht eingeben oder ausdrucken. Die einzige Optimiermöglichkeit ist, in den Notationseinstellungen anzuwählen, leere Takte durch einen Schrägstrich zu markieren. Für alles weitergehende musst du, auch in der aktuellen Version von BiaB 2019 deinen Song als MusicXML-Datei exportieren und dann z.B: Finale oder das kostenlose MuseScore für den Feinsatz der Notation einsetzen.

Für die von dir geschilderte Aufgabenstellung (mehrstimmiger Notensatz per Hand) ist Band in a Box nicht geeignet. Allerdings ist es, im Besonderen in der aktuellen Version 2019 möglich, sich vom Programm ganze Bläsersätze generieren und schreiben zu lassen, wenn du geeignete Styles nutzt, zum Beispiel die Crooner-RealStyles.

Jedes Instrument der Big Band kann individuell transponiert und ausgedruckt werden.

Papier ist doch geduldig. Längere Bläserpausen können für eine Ausdruckversion einfach auf etwa einen Takt komprimiert werden. Pausen über mehrere Takte könnten in diesem Takt via 'Section Text' symbolisiert werden.

Die BiaB Datei zum Playback enthält natürlich sämtliche Takte - aber diese Version muss ja nicht ausgedruckt werden.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
