I'm working on a 12-bar blues song, with many choruses. I'd like the first chorus or two to consist of (just) hand clapping on beats 2 and 4. (You can see what I want at Ray Brown's solo.) I have two questions: 1. In BB/Win 2020, is there a hand-clapping effect? 2. If I want to use a certain style for most of the song, e.g., _JSWINGP.STY, is there a way to suppress it for the first one or two choruses (and if so, how?)? Thank you very much!

First of all, thanks, Floyd, for your reply.
I downloaded your zipfile and extracted the two Choir Clap 2 and 4 .wav files and put them into the percussion loops directory, under loops, under RealTracks. I set both to Stretch/120/4, but when I select them as a LOOP in a song, I only get one clap per measure, at about 2-and-an-eighth beats into the measure. Can you tell what I am doing wrong?
Thanks.

Set the stretch to 90. That is an indication of what tempo the original file was recorded at - NOT what your current song tempo is.
If you are using the 4beat file, then set the # of beats to 4. If you choose the 16beat file, set it to 16 (You will get a bit more variance if you use the 16 beats file).

Floyd ... Just found your hand clap loops. Thanks for making them available, I was searching around BIAB looking for how to add handclaps, and you provided a simple approach to solving the need!

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."
