Allow any Rests
You can disable the rests feature. You might want to do this if you've
got a song with a lot of rests in it, and are then having difficulty
recording a melody because you don't hear the drums providing the
beat (due to the drums resting). If so, you can temporarily disable the
rests so that you can record and listen to the drums.
Allow any Pushes
If for some reason you don't want a style or a song to have pushes, you
can uncheck this box.
Allow Style Pushes
If for some reason you don't want a style to have pushes, you can
uncheck this box.
Chord Display Type
This box allows for non-standard display of chords on the chordsheet
area. The options here allow for Normal (Standard Notation), Roman
Numeral Notation, Nashville Notation and Solfeggio Notation.
Allow Lead In Bars
People who use Band-in-a-Box for soloing practice will likely turn the
lead-in off to allow endless looping uninterrupted by the lead-in count.
Play Lead In even if Intro present.
If a song has an intro, it’s usually not necessary to play the 2 bar lead-in
count. There's a new option to always omit the lead-in if an intro is
present. If you would like the lead-in bars to be played even if an intro
is present in the song, set this feature to “On.”
Audible Lead In / Volume
Use these settings for the audible drum count-in. You can select any
drum instrument for the count-in. You can choose different count-in
rhythms (e.g. Tap on 2 and 4 instead of 1-2-3-4).
Smart Lead-ins can also be set here. A smart lead-in avoids playing
the count-in drum sound during a Melody pickup.
Metronome During Recording
Select this to hear the metronome while recording.
Allow Any Endings
Song endings can be turned off for all songs, or on a song-by-song
basis.
To turn song endings off for all songs uncheck the “Allow Any
Endings” option.
