I have noticed that there are no electric bass waltz swing tracks. This style is used in country and southern gospel music often. With a more modern country sound acoustic bass seems lacking. Any help in the future?

John, if you could explain the steps as you develop the track, it might clarify some things for us still having problems.

If you look in the bb/realtracks/usertracks/templates you'll see some bb songs. I can use Pop Song 1 as a template just load in 3/4 waltz.The issue is that it's all BLUE part markers.Also a template more custom to what you want may be more versatile.So sned me a good template or even modify Pop Song 1 template and send it to me. I will then record the bass to the audio track. Once it's saved into a folder in the RTs/user folder it'll be ready for use.I also need stops and holds templates.

Also the blank templates don't give much chance for getting a could RT. The best is if you have an actual song mapped out that I could play against. The RT would be more realistic.

Hi Marty,

Try dropping one of the 4/4 Electric Bass Realtracks into a 3/4 song.

It works because all that happens is the 4th beat gets ignored in the 3/4 song.

And it also may go far to explain why there are no 3/4 available.

We found this out about Bass tracks a few versions back, sounds like PG might want to add yet another Hint or Tip somewhere in the Picker...

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."
