Hi,this started out as a question at thread post
https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=84129&Number=602258#Post602258

As the posts progressed I realized at post #4 of the thread that it could probably be programmed to the same effect without that much difficulty and you would likely see the value in this change to your product. So it morphs into a low priority request for "Humanizing Melody to match Style Changes that occur within the song". See post #4 of that thread for my thoughts on how your programmers might do this. Somewhere in the thread I mention tracking filled out 1/8th note triplets, 1/4 note triplets and 1/16ths properly regardless of style.

This might impact the programming. I changed styles two different ways in two different songs. Once using the section markers (the things that change colour) and once just recently using the Bar Settings which seems easier and much more flexible. I will probably always do this from now on using the second method.

Thanks,
John

+1 When creating a song that has a mixture of swing and straight feel, it would be nice to be able to use a F5 setting to "humanize" on a bar-to-bar basis

+1 "When creating a song that has a mixture of swing and straight feel"

P.S. Probably requires some very tricky programming, but at the end you can have a more interesting backing plus more variations in style / RT mixing.

Dzjang has also given a +1 for this idea in the original question thread I created. Sounds like it will help with sales :-)

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."
