Digital Audio Features
There is a File | Open Audio command, to open WAV,
WMA, MP3, WMV, or CD Audio files. Once opened, you can play the audio track along with a Band-in-a-Box
song.
Open an MP3/WAV/WMA or audio CD track, and play back at 1/2, 1/4, or 1/8 speed without affecting pitch. This
is great for transcribing or analyzing audio. To play it at a slower speed, choose the desired speed on the Play |
Tempo menu.
Audio Chord Wizard (Chords from MP3)
This amazing wizard automatically figures out the chords from any MP3, WAV, or WMA (Windows
Media Audio) file and displays them in Band-in-a-Box. Just load in any MP3 file and
you’ll instantly see the chords. Using the Audio Chord Wizard is a great way to learn and practice popular songs as
you play along and see the chords.
