as everyone knows i've been working with my midi's and finding more and more out everyday....thanks to all who have helped me so far..
i wanted to share what i discovered tonight...a lot of my midi's had this clonking sound in them...very terrible...and the annoying melody sound that i don't like playing with me while i'm playing and singing.
well tonight i discovered the midi sequencer under the melody tab...where i can see all the midi tracks and edit them.....so that annoying sound i had was a sound called a glokenspiel it made the midi sound terrible....so i erased that track it was on.....
then i got rid of the melody track...adjusted my effects to taste....then saved midi under the file tab.. sent it to my flash drive...and took it over to my yamaha mm6 and played it...
finally while it played in the keyboard....no melody line played and the glokenspiel torture sound was gone i was so happy i did a dance at my keyboard....just accomplishing that made buying this program worth it to me....and i'm just scratching the surface
yea Baby life is good with BIAB today cajun

TIP: Next time, try assigning a different MIDI Patch (Instrument) to the track. Maybe a Rhodes piano, maybe Vibes, Clavinet, some keyboard, depending upon Genre and taste.
Many MIDIOTS assigned Glockenspiel to mimic certain keyboards, but that is all dependant upon the MIDI synth *they* had when developing the file as to how it sounded.
Sometimes doing just what you did is great, too - less can indeed be more in this game.
Keep Havin' Fun with it,

Before i erased the glokenspiel track...i did try out some other sounds...but the midi note that was assigned to this track...was kinda weird...its like it had no musical form to it....think of a cowbell with a constant hit just whacking away.....
thats what this note was doing....just a boing boing boing boing through the whole song no matter what it was changed too it sounded bad
and i can't even figure out why whoever built the midi put it in there.. its almost like they built it while Drunk or smoking crack or something.....lol

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."
