The "start ending 2 bars early" option is very handy and I use it a lot, but not on pieces where the melody ends on the final bar. At the moment, for these I have to make a "tag" ending but since the tag can't simply be the ending itself, it's a little awkward.
Any chance of adding a tick box to start the ending 1 bar early?
Thanks!

Good idea. I'm not aware of how to deliver this with the current system.

That makes sense. It would be nice as an additional option.

I was just about to post this again, having forgotten about this thread - luckily I remembered the forum rules and did a search Anyway, over the last few months I've wished for this numerous times, so just wanted to keep the request alive!

Thanks! Hi Mike02392. I've followed this post hoping someone would reference an example but so far it's not happened. I'm not understanding the issue and have become curious to why there's a difference that an ending with the melody ending on the final bar doesn't work with "start ending 2 bars early" or what ever measure the ending begins you choose to start it and why a single measure that will "start ending 1 bar early" works. Are there any User Showcase songs posted I can review? Possibly a commercial release on YouTube? Or, better, maybe post an SGU file displaying the issue? Thanks, Charlie

I seem to recall that one of the members explained the exact reason that this was introduced was because of introduction of Real Tracks and the ability to fade, and this makes perfect sense.
I also can see that the 'earlier ending' start could be something other than 2 bars. So yes, why does the option need to be exactly 2 bars?

Ideally it'd be best to have a box letting us specify the number of bars to start the ending early, but the vast majority will be 1 or 2, so would take that if it's easier for the devs.

Disappointed to see that this has been left out yet again Can it be included in a patch? It doesn't seem to be that complex a feature and it would be really helpful.

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."
