Just landed a spot in a mostly dead band. Looks like a bit of fun. Plenty of room for noodling around and trying odd harmonies. My book of dead tunes is pretty small and I've got 1st guitar (jerry) part. I've got plenty to assimilate a piece of his style while learning all the chord changes. I guess I've got a bit of Bob Weir's job too on this one. Great challenge but want to hold up my part in the group. Good people.
I'm Looking for any biab for Grateful Dead resources that might be out there. I Did look at Notes Nortons #23 disk which has a few dead tunes on it Looks like a great disk but not much overlap onto the tunes I've been given. I've purchased Notes stuff in the past and have been very satisfied. Wish he'd make a nothing but dead Book.
Anyway, I've got a couple of print books from early albums and an familiar with rukind site on line. Just trying to jump start having to chart out 15-20 tunes all by my lonesome.
Some might opine its just laziness on my part. I suppose I just want to get to the noodling part.
Thanks in advance

Just landed a spot in a mostly dead band. ............ I think you might have more fun with a mostly live band sorry the devil made me do that What I would do if I were in your shoes would be to DL some dead MIDI files like those found here: https://freemidi.org/artist-506-grateful-deadYou could either bring them into BiaB and use them there and/or play along with them as is. I found them by google/bing grateful dead midi. I found a number of sites. Good luck
I want my last spoken words to be "I hid a million dollars under the........................"
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

Thanks for the midi idea. I had not thought of that. I started checking them out. I used the interpret chord changes in biab to get the basic chart. From there I can tweak the changes, style, tempo, key, etc. pretty easily.
Definitely helps when I can find the tune I'm after
Some of the files I found are much like the rest of the internet, the quality of free stuff often varies.
But your advice was right on and helpful I appreciate it.
Geeze.

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.

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."
