Hi, I've found that choosing "Silence" in the new multiriffs window doesn't make any effect at all. If I generate a solo over, say, 8 bars and want to mute the last two ones by selecting that bars and generating a silence (just the way you do when using the medley RT feature), nothing changes.

Can anybody confirm?

I’ll add a silence checkbox, that would be much faster than needing to select a silent rt. And the silent rt will work too.


Have Fun!

Thanks Peter, that's great! Of course there are workarounds (f5, edit audio...) but being able to do this directly from the multiriffs is much faster and intuitive.

Thanks again!

This is a good find. RT1152 can be added to a track by the select RealTrack page or alternately from the Bar Settings Window and the RealTracks Button. It can also be added from the RealTrack Medley Window and the Track Actions and Dialog Page so it would be nice to be added from the Multi Riff Page.

This is a very good feature. And you update quickly.
Multiriffs is a great invention, can it be more refined?
For example, you can control four parts in each bar (Beat1, 2, 3, 4)

multiriffs for each beat of a bar? several different options for each beat? not sure any meaningful phrases will have been recorded for one beat. why do you want to do this?

Mainly I like the silence function of Multiriffs.
Hope more details and more flexibility.

In addition, some small tones are also hoped to be realized through Multiriffs. Hope to be more detailed, instead of starting from the beginning of each BAR.
Since chord setting can achieve beat 1234
I think Multiriffs shouldn't be difficult, right?

Yeah I don’t think by the beat will work, have you tried the start and end offsets to dial in how it works.

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."
