I installed BIAB 2014 ultrapluspac and it is a wonderful improvement over the old GUI. Unfortunately, endings no longer print out on my leadsheets. How do I fix this problem?

Hi Howie,

Try playing around with the options I've put a ring around in the below image and see if that helps.



Also, in the "Print" options, try setting the printout to "Whole Song".



Hopes this helps.

Regards,
Noel

Thank you for your helpful suggestions, I have tried all of what you suggested but the ending still do not appear.when I used the full song setting, the program printed the full song (3 pages) still with no ending.

Try going under the BB Options menu and hitting the "Return to Factory Settings" button.


And, when trying to get a Lead Sheet to print properly, stop wasting ink and paper, use the Print Preview option, it is a true WYSIWYG - What You See Is What You Get - once it appears right in every way there, then hit the Print button.

Sometimes if I have say an 8 bar intro-32 bar chorus w/repeats-an 8 bar ending, I will set the start and end boxes to 1 and 48. Print it out and write in the repeats etc. I've always had a problem with printing charts correctly and prefer to put in all the markings myself. Later, Ray

Thanks for your help Ray, I have also had the same solution as you, there are many tricks to get what you want/need from BIAB. In my case The 2013 version gave me no problem with printing leadsheets with intros, endings etc... so I am convinced it is either a new bug or I am missing something simple in the setup. When I used BIAB 2013, I used ALT W to get to the print service that worked perfectly for me.

Howie,

If you want to send me the BIAB file, I can see if I can get it to print properly. I'm not sure how to help you any more over the internet. I've exhausted all options I can think of except for physically having the file. If you want to take me up on my offer, my email address is



Kind regards,
Noel

Hi Howie,

Thank you for sending me the file. You should have received by email, now, the pdf printout that I obtained. It looked like it includes everything. Please let me know if it didn't.

How I set BIAB to do that was ...

1. Select Fakesheet Mode



2. Go into "Opt" (#1) and select "Fakesheet include ending bars" (#2). See image below.



3. Press the "Print" button (#1) and then set the 'Print Range' to "Whole Song" (#2). See image below.



To check that it's ok, use the "Print Preview" option as this will show you what the print-out will look like before you print it.

Hope this helps,
Noel

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.

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."
