> Also, in the next major release consider adding a few more options like Relative Roman Numeral I, ii,
We already have that, with the relative root expressed using numbers, like 1, 4 etc. (Nashville numbers). Are you suggesting that this should have a switch to showing Roman numerals instead?
Just suggestion on how to improve the tool. - Nashville is fine, a lot of other sources used Roman, no big deal. + The key button at the bottom should let you change keys. (Mine does not) + a video button with some basic of chord progression (common progressions, passing chords, importance of Tonic Sub-tonic etc.) + passing chord suggestions. + Next chord (comes from statistics) + how to borrow chords.
Borrowed chords are chords borrowed from other modes or keys. They are used to provide harmonic variety through contrasting scale forms. The most common borrowed chords are the ii chord from the parallel minor key and the IV chord from the parallel major key. The ii chord is often a half-diminished seventh chord and the IV chord is often a major seventh chord. Borrowed chords progress in the same manner as the diatonic chords they replace except for ♭ VI, which progresses to V (7).
The notation V/V means “the dominant of the dominant” and VI/V means "the submediant of the dominant"2. These are examples of secondary dominant chords which are borrowed chords from another key.
Studio One (latest version), Win 11 23H2 , i9 -10940X 3.3 GHz, 32GB Mem, a 4K 40" monitor, PreSonus Studio Live III Console as interface/controller. secondarily test on Reaper, Cakewalk, and S1 on Surface Pro 3 Win 10 (latest versions).
So what I recommend for a BiaB user interested in chord theory, is to use that chord builder above.
Just start clicking on row 1 (“diatonic”) and you’ll find that you could almost be randomly clicking on them and still have a nice chord progression. - then start adding in some chords from row2 (“dominant 7th”) and you’ll get the nice added chords like D7, A7, E7, C7 that are used all the time in pop (and jazz). - then bring in the nice chords from the key of Cm, and you’ll add Fm, Bb7, Cm, and Eb to the key of C, which are all great chords and used all the time in the key of C. For example, Fm is one if the nicest chords in the key of C (adds a “sad” quality, especially after an “F” chord), and once you discover it, you can’t live without it. - then explore the lower rows and you’ll be introducing less commonly used chords, that are still present in the key of C. Examples would be CDim7 (diminished), Bm7b5 and F#m7b5.
Thank you so much for your patience, I will keep trying these chords!
1、Can the BIAB team create a keyboard for Chord builders to display chord notes.
2、Can the BIAB team allow each Bar to directly input 4 or 8 chords? Currently, only 2 chords are allowed. Even if you input 4 through commas, the chords after commas cannot be played directly through Enter+Shift. It would be more convenient to have 4 or 8 boxes directly. I know there are micro chords, but micro chords are not as convenient as simply inputting 4 or 8 chords per bar.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
