In a related post, Guido offered the following regarding training your ear to hear different modes "For me listening to a song in mixolydian doesn't really help. Playing the same song in different modes helps a lot."
In my study of modes, and in books I've read about them, I've never come across a recommended exercise to convert a song written in one mode over to another. It would seem to me that given the interrelationship between the melody and chords - this is not an obvious thing to do.
I'm wondering if: 1.) other people have converted songs from one mode to another for learning purposes - where it works well, where it really may not make sense,
2.) Is there a way to have BB do this for me ? - to convert a song in one mode to another ? Again, it would seem that the entire intent of the songwriter would be changed in a very unpredictable way - one that doesn't necessarily achieve the new 'modal sound' intended.

Wow - almost every question I ask, Mike comes back with a pinpointed on-target internet reference. And I thought I was a good googler (actually, I am - but I still think there is enormous value to an experienced musician's answer - because they will give you not only the 'theoretically' accurate answer, but actual real-world experience in having applied it).
But that said - I wonder Mike if you actually google results that I maybe could have or should have - or if you actually have played around - for example with this particular concept (modal transposition) for yourself in your own pursuit of music mastery.

the results were googled haven't messed with modes much but this was interesting and inspiring
Everything you need to know about all the scales, including every mode of every scale, in every key, in all the popular tunings. Scales are shown on their instrument and in standard notation. Also show are all the chords that sound good with the scale. You can listen to any scale, and for fretted instruments, you can click any note on the low string to display the patterns for all the hand positions.
excerpt from the above link Here's some examples of tunes using modal harmony: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwmRQ0PBtXU (four different 7sus4 chords, mostly mixolydian, but hints of dorian or aeolian) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEC8nqT6Rrk D dorian - listen for the quartal chords from 0:36 (this tune has a bridge in Eb dorian, but that's the only change) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GgXqIf9h4s Real open-ended modal improvisation: five different modes, no pre-composed structure; they just change from one mode to the next on cue. (Notice the minimal harmonization from the piano.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SINl5...eature=related Lydian mode - largely a C lydian groove, but with a change to Ab lydian at one point. Similar to "So What" he uses two chords a whole step apart in a riff to outline the mode (D/C and C). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbTUCdIiRjE Phrygian mode: E phrygian, with a move to A phrygian and back.

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.

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."
