Update Fixed copying and changing chords with pushes hold shot rest and long chords e.g ^^C13sus#5b9#11,G13sus#5b9#11...db so you can change the push from 16th to 8th or 8th to 16th, add/remove rest shot hold, add b,d,p,g or s to the rest shot or hold or remove without having to re-type the chords.
Pipeline, I've been swamped with concerts and am just catching up with your very generous offer of this chord picker tool. It somewhat resembles my notation software.
I'm wondering, before I load and try it, is there some basic description of what it does and why, and where to use it? I must not have seen that. Thanks.
BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile. Software: Studio One 6.5 Pro, Swam horns, Acoustica-7, Notion 6; Win 11 Home. Hardware: Intel i9, 32 Gb; Roland Integra-7, Presonus Studio 192, Presonus Faderport 8, Royer 121, Adam Sub8 & Neumann 120 monitors
Everything is done with one click, no typing long chords, no typing, you can add or remove shots, pushes, holds and rests without re-typing. In the Tools tab you can add your own custom actions to do complex things with one click without having to navigate through a tree of menus.
It is also helpful for those with a disability and can be used on a touch screen.
Can you help me? I have downloaded your Chord Picker Tool. I also downloaded and ran AutoHotkeys by clicking on the ahk file. I can get your Chord Picker Tool to open onscreen,but, it won't place the chords I click on onto Band an a Box. Am I doing something wrong? I have placed Chord Picker Tool into my documents folder, does it need to be installed somewhere else? Please help.
Thank you so much for adding the full screen button and the hide show button, Works a treat!
Can I ask (as a person who hears music rather than reads music) if you could place a button that would allow (for example) If my key was D, what are the chords that I could use (suggestions that would be appropriate) for that key in my song.
I don't understand the circle of 5ths so any help your program could give would be brilliant.
Thanks once again Pipeline.
George
P.S. I like that you have added a txt file so that people know about running as administrator.

This is already there! Click your key on the very top bar and it shows you the chords in that key, both major and minor!
Thanks a lot for this brilliant addition to BB Pipeline...
One question; If PG Music offered u a job in their company, would u say yes?
Will strongly recommend PG music to do that..;) I think BB would strongly benefit from it...

The advice and ideas I post are free to be used, there is a bit of a time warp between PG and Me, the ideas might get used eventually but if so 10-15-20 years down the track.

This looks like a fabulous addition to BIAB. Well done on your part - it seems users are happy with it. I'm happy with my 2011Pro version - will this extension work with that version?

Add updated printing options, enhanced tracks settings, smoother use of MGU and SGU (BB files) within PowerTracks, and more with the latest PowerTracks Pro Audio 2024 update!
Download and install this to your RealBand 2024 for updated print options, streamlined loading and saving of .SGU & MGU (BB) files, and to add a number of program adjustments that address user-reported bugs and concerns.
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.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
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."
