Generate Endings not working????? #109954 03/29/11 12:04 PM Band-in-a-Box for Windows

I tried unchecking and then checking it again but nothing I try will work. It will not generate an ending. I have no idea what could have changed to make this stop working. Does anyone else have this problem? I guess I have to go back over all my songs and make my own endings. This is a problem, I have over 400 songs worked up! Oh, I forgot, I am using BIAB 2011. I just downloaded the 315 update hoping that will correct the problem but just in case it doesn't any help would be greatly appreciated. Debby

FYI, You can save a copy of your current preferences by going to Opt. \| Save Preferences As. You can then load your preferences later if you need to check something. There is a setting in Opt. \| Preferences \| Arrange... "Allow any endings". It sounds to me like this got unchecked. Andrew PG Music Inc.

Sometimes endings are truncated in the middle of a tone. This goes for both, Realtracks and Midi. I agree that often the result is acceptable or even quite good, but sometimes it is annoyingly bad.
