When I import a song from BIAB into RB the ending continues to be abrupt. Even when I put two dots following the final chords in BIAB to get some sustain it doesn't transfer over to RB...any suggestions?

I don't think RB does 4 bar endings. Maybe try a two bar ending ..

Another trick is to record some silence on a dummy track to make the seq file longer (have seen this make a difference in the ring of the last note in some versions)

Or maybe freeze the tracks in BiaB and see if they come over different to RB.

Or generate the tracks to wave files and import the wave files into RB seq file.

:shrug: I dunno, just tossin out ideas to try

I make premature endings by unfolding to one chorus and using a hold chord (example C...) as a last chord 4 to 6 bars before Biab makes an ending. You get a long naturally decaying part on all but a drum crash. For the drum crash I go to the folder (BB > Drums)there's the drum files and there are single parts along with the drum beats and I copy and paste them at the end. Usually save the drum hits for future use too.

That could be part of the problem - I think the poster indicated he used 2 dots after the last chord. You need 3 dots for sustain.

My method also works great when you have tracks from different styles and the ending doesn't work.

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!

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."
