Hi everyone,
I'm very impressed by the natural Arrangements feature.

However, while I can find the setting in BIAB to switch it on for all songs, in Realband I can only find the setting (in Song Settings) to turn it on for individual songs.

Is there such a setting in Realband?

Regards

Phil

Yes, every so often I get lucky and find it. It is suppose to be global but resets for me. I can never find it when I go to look for it. lol

A conversation with PG Music support suggests there is not a global option for natural arrangements in Realband - only the setting to turn it on for individual songs.

No great sweat, though slightly tiresome that every session I get a flash message telling me a global option is available.

Regards everyone

Have you tried turning the natural arrangement on in song settings, then saving the settings as your default template to see if that keeps it turned on? Just a thought.


Quote:
Save Song as Default Template
This will save the song as $OPTIONS.SEQ so that the song will be loaded automatically whenever starting a new song with the File | New command.

Hi Phil,

Are you running RealBand 2018 build 5?

In Song Settings, there are two checkboxes in Song Settings for Simple Arrangements, one for "this song", and one for "all songs".

Thanks

Hi,
been away from home but returned today to see this.

Thanks. I am indeed on version 5 and - yes - I've found the setting!

Wrong answer Kent! We need the same for "Natural" and not simple arrangements.

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."
