Chapter 6: Band-in-a-Box PowerGuide

The category here is called “My Styles,” you can change the name using the yellow “Category Name” area. For this

example, change the name to “Favorite Jazz.”

Let’s add a Style to the list.

Press the [Add New Style] button.

A style has been added, called NONAME.STY. You now need to fill in all of the information

in PINK, to supply the information for the style you have added.

Note: For this example, we’ll add a Jazz style called NEWONE.STY. This style is included in the C:\bb folder.

This information includes:

1. Name of the Style (8 characters maximum + .STY).

You can type in the style name, or press the Choose button to pick a style name from the \bb folder.

If the style doesn’t exist, a <not found> will appear in the style list beside the style name (as it does for the

NONAME.STY). Press the [Choose] button and choose NEWONE.STY.

2. Long Name of the style. This is a descriptive name that appears on the StyleMaker, and can be up to 32

characters. Enter “A Brand New Jazz Style.”

3. Memo and Examples. You can enter a memo for the style, and example songs that could be played in that

style. The memo and example can total 200 characters maximum. Enter a memo and examples for

NEWONE.STY.
