The other day my computer got stuck in an auto repair loop. So I had to reset and reinstall some programs, including BB and RB. Now, a song that was close to finished has this unusual problem. On one midi track, the sound is piano for 36 measures. Then it changes to something else that sounds like midi guitar for two measures. Then it changes back to piano.
Anyone have a notion about the cause and the fix? Thanks.

Hi
I would open the song then press F5 and see if there is any voice changes set for the two bars in question on your piano track,

Like Mike stated Program Changes will do that. I will add that if that MIDI file was imported from a source other than BiaB that Program Change may be on another track. This is especially true of downloaded Internet MIDI files.
Good luck
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Thanks to both of you. All the tracks are from BB. Still, I will try that.

Hi 2bSolo,
Window - New - Event List (or F2) will bring up a list of every single MIDI even on every track, it's an invaluable troubleshooting tool for any MIDI-related issues as you can peek under the hood and see a lot more info that the Notation or Piano Roll windows provide.
You'll find the Program changes that way, guaranteed.
Cheers

Thanks, Kent.
Funny thing. My function keys no longer work. I have looked on the internet and I haven't found a solution yet. But you gave me a set of commands. I will try that.

Hi 2bSolo,
The solution to the Function key issue will likely be specific to your keyboard.
Are you using a USB keyboard, or the keyboard built into a laptop? With model of keyboard or laptop is it?
Cheers

Hi 2bSolo,
Does hitting or holding down the FN key (to the left of Windows key) not do the trick?
Cheers

No, it just makes my monitor dim.
Thanks for trying.

Try holding down the FN key while pressing the desired function key.

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."
