Hi

Is it possible to add a drum fill within a section of music, say a verse or bridge without creating a new line as normally happens when you add a Part Marker. Reading page 119 of the manual shows how you can prevent new lines when a Part Marker is added, but I only want this to happen on one occasion only.

I noticed if you right click on a bar number you can change the Groove Variation for that bar, but unfotunately the list doesn't include Fills.

Hi Glen,

As you've noted, the part markers determine fills. As far as I'm aware, it's not possible to have part markers start a new line for part of the song and not start a new line for part of the song: it's one or the other.

Have you investigated Realband? I use this when I want to customize fills because I can copy and paste sounds from one location in the drum track to other locations. It's also possible to add a part marker in Realband and then exclusively regenerate the bar before the part marker on the drum track alone.

Hope this helps,
Noel

Hi Noel

Thats a good idea I didn't think of using RB.

BIAB has so many goodies tucked away under the hood, I just assumed the option to add a fill within a musical part (without creating a new line) would be there somewhere.

I'll get over to the Wish List forum and put in a request

If it's a matter of choosing between what you hear and what you see on the screen, then why not put it the fills you want, then freeze the parts, then remove the fills from the chord grid (to get rid of the extraneous "new lines")?

Hi John

Thanks for your help

You make a very good point, I must admit I have not used the freeze function yet. It would be nice if this was available as an option rather than a workaround. I have made a request for this to be added in the Wishlist forum.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

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!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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.
