Hi Leif,

The "Big Lyrics Window" does not interface with bar-based lyrics.

It's possible to copy bar-based lyrics to the "Lyric Document Window" but this does not scroll and show chords like the "Big Lyrics Window.

For lyrics to show in the Big Lyrics Window, it's necessary to enter them as note-based lyrics.

Even though they are called 'note-based' that's terminology from the past. These days, all that's necessary is to click on beat 3 in a bar and then paste the lyrics for that bar into lyric entry box.

Tomorrow when I get home from work, I'll put together a quick tutorial for you and explain how it's done.

Regards,
Noel

There is an option now in the Lyrics window to Print (copy to clipboard bar based lyrics) but it's not working correctly at the moment as it puts the bar lyrics and chord on a new line, so I'm not sure if they are meant to show now and are not working.
You can also render the chord sheet to video with the bar based lyrics and it will play in sync if you need another screen with chords n lyrics:

Lief,

I suggest that you edit your original post and delete your phone number. Who knows what kind of person on the world wide web might want to take advantage of the information.

Also, if you are happy that this thread is resolved, please click 'Resolved' on your original post.

All the best,
Noel

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."
