Can I put a measure of 5/4 time in BIAB?

Thanks for your help,

Wayne Franco

My version(2009.5)has several 5/4 time styles available.

Pull down "Edit" and go to "Settings for Current Bar". Make your style change and then you'll have to change back by the same procedure.

Thank you very much for answering my question. I have 2010 and its the best ever. I've been putting the real tracks down into my Sonar 8.5 and it is working really great. Honestly I think the real drum tracks are incredably convenient and really sound as good as EZ drummer.

W,
If you don't mind a bit off-topic question, how
do you go about moving from biab into sonar?
you already have your 'mix' in biab and move all
instruments into a couple tracks (stereo) of sonar,
or do you move each biab instrument seperately into
its own sonar channel?
Thnx,
Russ

By the way, I loved your set in St. Louis last year. I'd really like to have that arrangement of steel guitar rag you did in the jazz room.

I have the newest Biab 2010. You have to manually export from any of the earlier programs to your DAW. There is a button that says DAW on 2010. When you click it, reduces the size to fit in front of your Sonar program. I've only used real audio tracks which really sound great. I am sure midi would do the same thing. Left click and drag the various instruments to a blank track area of Sonar. It even creates its own track. From there you can really go to town changing things. I cut and paste parts of the soloist track so I can make intros, leads fills, etc. with independant control of volume. I've even groove quantized some of the stuff for a slightly different feel,yes..on audio tracks.

Thanks, W
I'll look forward to this
feature when I can get v2010.
