Tip: How to preserve chords if you revisit the AudioChordWizard
If you do revisit the AudioChordWizard, and want to preserve the chords that you may have edited, first select all of
the chords, and choose Edit-Copy, and then, after the AudioChordWizard, choose Edit-Paste. Otherwise the
AudioChordWizard might re-interpret your chords!
The Help button launched the help file (BBW.CHM file) with a topic describing the dialog, and the
AudioChordWizard.
The “Manual” button launches a PDF manual of the Audio Chord Wizard with latest features
described. This manual is in BB AudioChordWizard folder.
MIDI File Chord Interpretation Wizard
Many MIDI files lack chord symbols, making them difficult to play along with by ear. Now you can open up any
MIDI file in Band-in-a-Box, and Band-in-a-Box will automatically figure out the chords of the song for you. The
chords are written onto the Band-in-a-Box chordsheet like any other song. You can also read tracks into the Melody
and Soloist tracks.
