Hello
I'm a new user and member of this forum and would appreciate some help.
I play in a jazz improvisation workshop and we use BIAB for our backing tracks. We normally loop the tunes 10 or 15 times so that each of our members gets a chance to improvise to the music.
We start by playing the tune, then each member will improvise through however many loops and then we end with the tune.
The problem comes when we want to end the music - currently our leader just hits the stop button at the opportune place but this makes the tune end very abruptly. We don't want to play to a set number of loops and we'd like to be able to press a button that tells the software that this is the last loop and then the tune runs to the tag at the end - is there such a function in BIAB? I'm running the 2019 version.
I've searched for tutorials etc but can't find the solution.
Many thanks, Mel

I think I have a solution I don't do it in BIAB. Truthfully, I don't know how to do it in BIAB. I do use BIAB to create all my tracks. I export .WAV or .MP3 files from BIAB. I use Anytune Pro for performance. It has a variety of features you may like. The looping part is what you use to control the number of chorus's played. Here's a 2 minute presentation that provides the gist of the approach. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4XcsYySauIThe bluetooth pedal the presenter describes works great but I don't think its absolutely required. It makes it a lot easier. I for other features also. Its not a BIAB solution but it works on IOS or Mac. I use either a tablet or my iphone. Both work great. I don't have to bring a Laptop to the gigs. It may not prove satisfactory to your needs but I believe it will accomplish your objective.

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

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."
