Hi all,

I was experimenting with setting up a chordsheet with RT styles and I generate a solo on a utility track.
But it is playing right from the start in chorus 1.
I would rather play in chorus 2 only.

How to achive this?

Thanks for your advice.

Cheers
Stefan
With a 3 Chorus song and the soloist is on a Utility Track - for instance UT#1


Select UT#1 -
Open the Audio Editor
Select the Snap Button
Select the Whole Track Button to display the complete song
Across the top of the Audio Editor note the Barlines
Chorus's are notated in order of bar/part marker/chorus 1a (1) 5a (1)| 2a (1) 5a (2) | 3a (3) 5a (3) - etc.
To have the Soloist on UT#1 only play through the 2nd chorus do the following:
Place the curser at 1a (2) and with the mouse, click the left control button and drag to the left beginning of the song - 1a (1)
Chorus 1 is highlighted
Open Edit - Silence and chorus 1 should erase
Place the curser at 1a (3) and with the mouse, click the left control button and drag to the right highlighting the end of the song
Chorus 3 is highlighted
Open Edit - Silence and chorus 3 should erase
The second chorus should be all that remains of the solo on the UT#1

open the file in RealBand and cut and paste the solo or parts of it to wherever you want

or regenerate the solo using multiriff to give you a huge choice of phrases and riffs
Another approach could be to Edit, Song Form, Unfold. Then use F5 at various bars to Mute or Return to Normal on the track where you don't want/want the solo.

Bunch of answers. Your call.

Ok, thanks all. That gives me a wealth of approaches to handle this issue.

I will try all of the 3 possibilities to see what easiest for me.

Thanks a lot!

Cheers Stefan
