Unfold (convert to 1 BIG chorus)
Choose this command to unfold a multi-chorus song into one BIG chorus. When selected, Band-in-a-Box will
display all choruses and verses of a song without loops or repeats. It is useful, for instance, when you have a song
with 3 choruses and want to convert it to a single large chorus, or to customize a song with the “Edit Settings for
Current Bar” feature to change meter, tempo, patches, styles, and/or harmonies and generate a MIDI file for export.

Set Time Signature (range of bars)
You can assign a specific time signature at any bar and apply it to a range of bars, as often as you want. For
example, to have one 5/4 bar, bar 13, select this menu item, and toggle the 5/4 button. Then, type in the bar
beginning (13) and number of bars (1) in the space provided.
Time signature changes are printed on the Notation and Lead Sheet.
Transpose
This menu command opens a submenu with both manual and
automated options for transposing the complete song or selected
parts of the song.
