Remove .mp4 Biab-Actions-Metronome-Record-Chords.zip.mp4 and unzip it then run it enter the initial chord on your keyboard that you have set as midi input device set Biab to the bar where you want to start recording the chords click "Record Chords" it will record up to 2 chords per bar.
Let me know if it works okay or the timing needs adjusting as I don't have a keyboard at the moment. It should still also work with menu > Window > MIDI Chord Detection open if you want it there. It uses the system audio so you may need to release the ASIO driver in the Driver Setting.
so BB Action button 3 is sending "spacebar" key and activates the Biab window with "winactivate,ahk_class TBandWindow" to get the ahk_class of any window run "WindowSpy.ahk" in the AutoHotKey folder or right click on the little green icon with the white H in the system tray > Window Spy.
ButtonBB3:
winactivate,ahk_class TBandWindow
WinMenuSelectItem,ahk_class TBandWindow , , Edit, Song Form, Unfold (convert to 1 BIG chorus)
Return
Copy the menu path names exactly, like if they have ... , ";" semicolon in front of a line disables the line. You can edit the autohotkey.ahk script in any test editor like notepad. Save it and double click to run it, make sure the script is closed first, look in the system tray for the little green icon with white "H" you can also right click "Reload This Script"
That's just accessing menus if you want to add more advanced functions look at the Biab Chord Picker Tool script.
Try this update you can send from chord pads. If they are a VST or standalone you can use LoopMIDI, set the Pad or DAW Midi Output to LoopMIDI and set Biab to Input from LoopMIDI. You can use SAVIHost to run a vst as standalone, just rename savihost.exe to the same name as the dll chordspace.exe and set the midi out to LoopMIDI. A chord is inserted at every bar and half bar, this is easy then to record over a section with a new progression. Now if you need it to Midi sync to tempo I will have to add that. Again, just remove the .mp4 and unzip.

Video: Enhanced Melodists in Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows®!
We've enhanced the Melodists feature included in Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows!
Access the Melodist feature by pressing F7 in the program to open the new MultiPicker Library and locate the [Melodist] tab.
You can now generate a melody on any track in the program - very handy! Plus, you select how much of the melody you want generated - specify a range, or apply it to the whole track.
This new panel offers built-in specific support for the Reaper® DAW API allowing direct transfer of Band-in-a-Box® files to/from Reaper® tracks!
When you run the Plugin from Reaper®, there is a panel to set the following options:
-BB Track(s) to send: This allows you to select the Plugin tracks that will be sent Reaper.
-Destination Reaper Track: This lets you select the destination Reaper track to receive media content from the Plugin.
-At Bar: You can select a bar in Reaper where the Plugin tracks should be placed.
-Start Below Selected Track: This allows you to place the Plugin tracks below the destination Reaper track.
-Overwrite Reaper Track: You can overwrite previous content on the destination Reaper track.
-Move to Project Folder: With this option, you can move the Plugin tracks to the Reaper project folder.
-Send Reaper Instructions Enable this option to send the Reaper Instructions instead of rendering audio tracks, which is faster.
-Render Audio & Instructions: Enable this option to generate audio files and the Reaper instructions.
-Send Tracks After Generating: This allows the Plugin to automatically send tracks to Reaper after generating.
-Send Audio for MIDI Track: Enable this option to send rendered audio for MIDI tracks.
-Send RealCharts with Audio: If this option is enabled, Enable this option to send RealCharts with audio.
