Song Start

Some songs have a short intro. Is there some way of getting BIAB to do a count in and start the song on Bar 2, 3, or 4?

Dennis to the right of the title to your song you will see "INTRO" That should do what you want. Don't be a afraid to experiment. Hope this helps.

Still can't get it to do that. By changing the bar setting it goes to that bar setting number after it plays the chorus.

If I understand you, you can do this by putting a chord and a period after it. "C." This is a rest and the timing will pass but you won't hear anything. So, if you want the music to start on bar three, put rests on bars one and two.

Make sure the check box for "all instruments" has a tick in it when you select "rest".

It may be that BIAB automatically selects "all instruments" when you just type in C., but I have never used it like that so can't say for sure. I have always right clicked on the bar and selected "chord settings", then the above comes into play.
