When you run the Plugin from Reaper®, there is a panel to set the following options: This new panel offers built-in specific support for the Reaper® DAW API allowing direct transfer of Band-in-a-Box® files to/from Reaper® tracks! New with the DAW Plugin Version 6.0, released with Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows: the Reaper® Panel! Never had this problem with earlier versions of BIAB.Īppreciated your continued advice and support, Oh your other question, I am running only one instance of BAIB at a time.
Some songs will automatically open to Bar 1 of the Leadsheet and others will not. If I close the previous auto-opened Leadsheet, that was displaying say measure 35, and click on Bar 1 of the chordsheet, the lead sheet will open at Bar 1 when I click on the Leadsheet.Īdditionally, if I opened the song, as above, close the Leadshhet and then click on the Fakesheet check mark, the song will open the Fakesheet at Bar 1 and then if I open the Leadsheet, it will also be at Bar 1.Īs I said in an earlier post, this is all very confusing. That is, when I double click on the name of the song in the Song Picker, the song opens with the Lead Sheet displayed. I have set the program to open the Lead sheet automatically. I single click the Song button and then double click the name of the song in my "home folder" of the Song Picker. In the Song Picker, I've set the Home Folder to be the directory where I store all of my finished BIAB songs. I open my songs using the upper half of the Song button. There's something going on here and I would just like to figure out what it is. Yet about half of my songs do open the Lead Sheet at Bar 1. I've even tried to return to factory settings, both the "MOST" and "ALL' settings. In trying to figure why some songs open at Bar 1 on the Lead Sheet and others open at random places, I have tried various methods of "Save", "Save As", saving with the chord chart open, saving with the Fake sheet open, saving with the Lead Sheet open. I would just like to have all songs to open at Bar 1 on the Lead sheet. Others, will open to random places in the uld be starting at Bar 26, Bar 63.it seems random. Some songs, on the Lead Sheet, will open to the beginning, at Bar 1. I then click on the Lead Sheet to play the song.
I open up each song, it opens in the chord sheet.not a problem.
While I'm far from being classically trained and see myself more as a technician than a musician, it may be just the way I use BIAB to play keys on my songs. I must admit though, the logic still escapes me. Thanks guys, I do appreciate your insight and helpful advice. If a user chooses to define repeats, DC al Coda, etc., then Fake Sheet Mode is important.Īttached Files (Click to download or enlarge) (Only available when you are logged in) In BIAB, most of us work in linear mode so Fake Sheet Mode does nothing. The Fake Sheet Mode is the equivalent of what a great deal of print music uses. The grayed out regions are because sections have been defined as repeated sections. The missing bars will now be exposed and grayed out. While the song is 32 bars long, not all 32 bars are showing.Ģ) Locate the "Fake Sheet" toggle (top image, below) and click on it. The song jumps from bar 8 to bar 15 and bars 9 to 14 seem to have disappeared. If you now go to LeadSheet view and toggle the Fake Sheet Mode, you'll see how the display changes as it changes from linear view to condensed view.ġ) You'll probably notice that there are bar numbers missing. "\bb\Documentation\Tutorials\Tutorial - Repeats and Endings" To see how the different modes operate, open the tutorial file called "Repeats Tutorial example 2 with 1st-2nd and DC al Fine.MGU". In case it's useful information for some who might read this thread. For example, if the cursor is on bar 50 on the chord sheet, bar 50 will be the starting point when switching to Lead Sheet mode. Lead Sheet mode, on the other hand, aligns with where the cursor is on the chordsheet. So when it's activated, the display would return to the beginning as selected bars could potentially be "hidden" bars. It's a way of contracting the song display when repeats, etc., are used. Fake Sheet Mode (in Lead Sheet view) works hand in hand with Fake Sheet in Chordsheet view.
