Chapter 4: Guided Tour of Band-in-a-Box
You can arrange, record, save, and print your own song ideas with Band-in-a-
Box. Just type in the chords to any song; choose a style and press [Play] to hear
the “band” play a full arrangement. Have some fun by changing to different
styles. For even more fun record a MIDI Melody – or have Band-in-a-Box write
a Melody for you. Add Harmony, an automatically improvised Soloist, an Intro,
and print out a lead sheet and play along.
