The above command is in Stylemaker and is supposed to allow you to change each track volume for the specific style but it doesn't seem to make any difference whether this is selected or not. You can change each track volume in the mixer regardless of whether this box is ticked in the Stylemaker. What am I missing?
Thanks
Tony

Tony That setting "Allow volume changes with style" is not really used anymore. You should leave it unchecked and set to 90. Instead, click the [MORE] button in that dialog, and use the dB offset setting. This works for both audio and MIDI tracks. Select the track from the drop-down, and then set the dB offset you want.

Does that mean it has no effect?
Does it only apply to MIDI-based styles?

Then way is it there?
It is things like this that can make BiaB extremely frustrating. I agree. If it's a legacy or redundant feature that doesn't function now, or has been superseded, then it should be removed from the program, and also the Help and the documentation.

I'm sorry Andrew but I need help with your reply. . What is meant by "not really used anymore" Does it work or doesn't it? Also how many users are going to delve into Stylemaker just to be able to change individual track volumes for their songs? Do we really have to learn about "dB offsets" Tony

Tony I believe it work(ed) by sending a volume change on the track at the start of playback. There may still be a use case for it, but in general when we are making styles, we'd like to adjust the relative volumes of the tracks, and then allow the user to use Song volume changes (i.e. Mixer window) to tweak the volumes if they want to. By allowing the Style to send volume changes, we are messing up the user's ability to save their song volumes. Looking into it further it appears to be disabled - If I watch the MIDI monitor for volume changes, they are not being sent by the style. This is almost certainly intentional and unless there is any reason I'm not aware of, we should probably remove it from the dialog. We will make a note of this, thanks.

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."
