Posted By: earl kirby HOW DO i ADD INTRO TO A COMPLETED SONG - 03/09/16 05:15 PM
I have a completed song with lyrics and all. I relalize should have added the into b4 entering the the lyrics but, dumb me, I didn't. Now when I try to add 4 bar intro the bar lyrics are appearing above the intro bars. How do I add just the intro without the lyrics being messed up?

Earl,

The same way you would start one on a new song. Just click song form, add intro and it will enter the chords at the beginning of the song.


Edit: You may have insert bars and add the chords you like without the intro feature as a work around.

Later,
The problem is with the new bar-based lyrics. They don't move when new bars are added. The Lyrics Options only seem to work with Line-based Lyrics. Not Bar-based Lyrics.

PGM mentioned something about fixing this at the very start of January. However, I doubt it's been looked at.

To articulate:

Seems simple enough. Will try this and let you know.
VideoTrack,

That's a nice, elegant solution. I hope you will repost in the Tips & Tricks section of the forum so your answer will be easier to find in the future.
Good Idea Jim!

It's on the way.
