You will then see a rebuilt style list, and your category “Favorite Jazz” and your new style “NEWONE.STY” will
appear in that category.
Technical notes:
The information is stored in a file called A_USER.LS3. This is a text file, but it is better to edit it using the
StylePicker editor.
You can make other .LS3 files using the StylePicker editor, using the [Save As] and
[Open] buttons.
You can also erase an .LS3 file from disk. Band-in-a-Box will load in all of the .LS3 files that are in the \bb folder
(in alphabetical order), and append them to the StylePicker list.
Technical Information about the BBW.LST file
The Help topics “Select Style with information” and “LS3 files” have information about adding styles to the Styles
List.
Favorite Styles Button
Another way to load a style is with the favorite styles [F] button, located to the
right of the StylePicker button. This button opens a window with a list of the 150 styles you have used most
recently. This lets you quickly load in styles that have been used your last few sessions with Band-in-a-Box.
Click the “Play When Chosen” checkbox to have Band-in-a-Box play your song immediately upon selecting a style.
