Stupid Q: Is there a way to re-generate part of a BIAB song, lets say the last 4 bars in an 80 bar song, without regenerating the whole song each time? I know you can do it in Realband, but can you do it in BIAB? F
Nope. We keep asking for that though.

Yes as JJJ said has has been ask many a time for.

Re: Suggestion: Selective Re-Generating

Biab MultiRiffs an Easier Way

Save Your Song with the frozen RealTrack that need the last 4 bars: Your Song Name.SGU
Edit > Song Form > Unfold
EDIT>:
Save the song as Your Song Name-MultiRiff.wav and using F5 set your Frozen RealTrack to mute the 4 bars you want to replace with a MultiRiff. :<EDIT
Save the song as Your Song Name-MultiRiff.SGU
Open Your Song Name-MultiRiff.SGU and UnFreeze track
Select the first track and choose the RealTrack you need, also set every other RealTrack in the Picker window to the same track.
To generate only the last 4 bars use F5 to mute each track @ bar 1 except Audio then where the last 4 bars start use F5 to bring them back to normal.
Left click the Audio Solo Button on the mixer then left click
the first track Solo Button.
Double click on the chord sheet just before the last 4 bars.
To try another Left click the Solo Button on the first track then left click the second one then play.



You can open another instance of Biab (if you have that set in options).
Open the original Your Song Name.SGU with the frozen track that needs the last 4 bars
Save the RealTrack to a Performance track (Right click Track > Track Actions) then move it to the Audio track (Audio menu).
Do the same with Your Song Name-MultiRiff.SGU in the other instance of Biab replacing the Audio Track.
Go to the Audio Edit window in both instances and set them to Snap
Now copy & paste the last 4 bars from Your Song Name-MultiRiff.SGU to Your Song Name.SGU
Move Audio Track back to Performance Track in Your Song Name.SGU (Audio menu).




Thnkx, sounds like quite more work than should be necessary LoL .. F

Once you've done it a few times you will get it done in a few minutes next go.
RealBand uses Biab in the background to do this so you are basically using another instance to do the same thing.
It took me 10 times as long to type it out than to do it.

If RealBand can do it, it proves that it is possible. If RealBand can deliver such a feature, then BiaB must be able to do this also.

It's a popular request. It would be a very useful if this was provided.
