Summary of changes in Build 1123 (Since build 1121) (Dec 11)
Added: Output chords feature now restarts chord if the chord is restated
Added: Output chords feature has support for "keyswitches", with a checkbox setting to preserve track notes and events outside of the chord note range
Fixed: StylePicker could have an exception in some cases on first run from the dialog that suggests a rebuild
Fixed: Chord Builder could be blank occasionally
Changed: RealDrums settings options to replace MIDI drums with RealDrums on a MIDI style now defaults to false
Improved: BB2Go dialog now renders to m4a
Added: VST2 options dialog has a button to switch to VST3, and text clarifies vst2 vs vst3 functions
Added: Stems, now has a button "Use Existing Audio Track" which sets the stem splitter to use the Audio Track and set various options
Added: Process to make Stems, use ACW for TempoMap and Chords, and then Equalize the tempos to one tempo has been improved with several additions 1. When bar 1 line moves, the stems all move as well in sync 2. When equalize tempos is chosen, the stems all get equalize tempos too so they stay in sync 3. Style changes don't change the tempo if audio track or stems or tempo changes are in place
Updated: Manual, help file.

Especially for completing Chord Track options! Awesome! Now you can work & program complex VSTs inside of BIAB. Audition PGM content in relation to your favorite VST instrument. And if you need to move project to DAW, all your keyswitches will be preserved in Chord Midi file(s).
Another thanks to Andrew and the rest of the developers.

I don't understand. Is there any picture or video demonstration? I can't find where the update is, where the chord is. I hope someone can help me. Mainly, I sometimes don't understand English. A picture explanation will help me understand. Thank you very much.
Updates are at the website below (PG Music Support). BIAB is currently up to build 1124. I suggest install this later one as it will have all the fixes that 1123 has and more.
There is one thing I don't understand. You can export the chord track by dragging and dropping it to the upper left MIDI. Isn't it just a separate chord MIDI track? Why do you say "it can be saved as a separate MIDI file"?
I think I didn't understand what you meant.
And the chord track switch you mentioned is now available. It means that every time the chord is updated, the remaining notes are retained. But how does this note control the switch? I don't quite understand. Can you make a video? Thank you
"And the chord track switch you mentioned is now available. It means that every time the chord is updated, the remaining notes are retained. But how does this note control the switch? I don't quite understand. Can you make a video? Thank you"
Perhaps learn what keyswitches are before asking questions like: "But how does this note control the switch" . Keyswitches are for 3rd party VST2/VST3 instruments. Bottom line is, if you don't manually draw keyswitches they will not alter your chord track in any way. I don't know good tutorials on keyswitches, but you can try watching this: Somewhere in the middle, it shows how keyswitches are used.
We call keyswitches keyboard mapping here. The most popular and convenient way is to use keyswitches to control the timbre changes and make the music more vivid. This is what I just learned recently. STUDIO ONE can also create keyswitches to control the timbre for VST. I just learned it today. This is a good video, thank you for sharing.
Timbre, articulation, pattern changes... There are many uses for keyswitches for different Virtual Instruments. In any case, Chord Track is about 98% complete. The last piece of the puzzle is to be able to save it as individual file on track by track basis, as you might have different modifications of Chord Track(s). Similar to option we have now to export individual files when right clicking on the mixer track > Track Actions>Save as WAV. This would be: Save as MIDI There is a current wishlist thread: https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=793760#Post793760
