Anyway Bill,
been a very interesting watch.
May give my Band in a Box another try, though must admit I’d sooner be experimenting for a Korg rather than my Yammie.
Think I know where I went wrong with my 32 bar patterns, when I tried them for the korg a couple of years back,
Should have had a core set rhythm , bass, drums, piano or guitar and used the fancy short fill ins at set intervals ie every 2 bars or 4 bars or 8 bars whatever happens to work for some specific songs.
I shouldn’t have let biab come up with its own random patterns, which probly works fine when there are chord changes involved for a biab song, but doesn’t work all that well with the single chord an arranger requires for a style.
Anyway something to think about.
