Convert Harmony to Melody Track
Converts a single line Melody track to include the current harmony selection.
Remove Harmony (or guitar solo) from Melody Track
Removes a harmony from a track, providing that the harmony was put there by Band-in-a-Box in the first place
using the Convert Harmony to Melody Track command.
Generate Guitar Chord Solo…
Opens the Select Guitarist dialog for generating a guitar chord solo.
Rechannel to Guitar Display…
This takes a melody, and converts it to Guitar Channels 11 to 16. When it encounters a chord, it will determine the
fret position that it's most possible to play that chord with. Otherwise, if it’s a single note, it will play it at the
current position at the guitar neck. If you want to convert an existing melody to a customized Guitar part, this
command is a good starting point, and you can edit the track further to achieve a better result.
Utilities
A Utilities sub-menu has utility functions to eliminate note overlap and transpose the Melody.
