Another newbie question. Search has not revealed the answer...

Is there a way to view all the style changes entered with the F5 menu all over a song?

I played with this but then realised I cannot find them unless I listen through the piece and note them down.

On the Main Chord Entry Page, any bar that you have modified bar settings will have a red underline. If you open any of the modified bars with F5, the style change will be listed near the top of the Bar Settings Menu.

In addition, there's also a button on the bottom of the F5 (Bar Settings) window called "Print Summary". If you click on that, it will create a Notepad text file with all the bar settings used in the song.

I find this not to be the case. Some of the changes seem to just be undetectable with this method. Every single bar in my song has the red for other teasons but I stll cannot find style changes.

Try the Song Memo icon, Bar Summary button. Make sure the Summary checkbox is checked.

Try as Noel says to see why you have every bar underlined!

That may be true. The red line signifies any modification made to a bar. That means something else occurred on your bars or else there's some type of corruption to that particular file. If you have every bar underlined on every BIAB file for no known reason, that is a problem that you would likely have to involve PGMusic staff to help unravel. You indicate you know the reason for the underlines. In my songs, I often find that songs that have been processed through the Audio Chord Wizard will cause the bars to be underlined due to the changing tempo detected by the ACW.

Yes, I’ve seen the ‘all bars red’ from applying a tempo map from ACW.

That is a great help. I did it and it shows what I needed to see.

It also showed that every single bar had a beat change to 4 in it. That is why they were all marked in red.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

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.

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."
