Chapter 4: Guided Tour of Band-in-a-Box 35

Copying and pasting a section of chords

Since many songs repeat the same sequence of chords throughout, a faster

method to enter a song into Band-in-a-Box is to COPY and PASTE the

repeating chords.

Highlight a section of chords by dragging the mouse over them while holding

the left mouse button. The area will be blackened/highlighted.

Press Cmd+C, or select the Edit | Copy menu item. The highlighted area will

be copied to the clipboard. It can then be pasted back into the chordsheet at any

location, and reused as many times as you like.

Move the highlight cell to the bar that you want to paste the chords into, using

the arrow keys or the mouse.

Paste the copied section with press Cmd+V command, or select the Edit | Paste

menu item. The chords will then appear at the new location.

Choose a Style

The Style Picker window allows easy selection of Styles by Category, Full

Style Title, Memo, and examples of songs that work in that style. This list may

be printed out. For example, you can select Jazz styles, and see all the Jazz

styles in Band-in-a-Box displayed. Then you can select a style such as

GARNER.STY and see a full title, description of the style and examples of

songs appropriate to the style. You won’t have to go “hunting” for the style you

want any more. This information may be printed out.

You get to the StylePicker window by pressing the [.STY]

button or Ctrl+F9. This launches the StylePicker window.

Choose the “Show Styles Filter” to display all styles, or only styles that match

the prototype partially or fully.
