Chapter 8: Automatic Music Features 120

Soloing over Slash Chords

The Soloist analyzes slash chords (like C/Bb) to determine the best scale type to

use (e.g. Bb Lydian). There's nothing you need to do, this function happens

automatically behind the scenes.

Fours Soloing

Band-in-a-Box can generate the first four or the second four bars. “Trading

fours” refers to a solo lasting four bars, usually followed by a different melodic

solo (or drum solo) for the next four bars. It’s fun to solo along with Band-in-a-

Box in 4's mode, letting the computer solo for four bars, followed by your solo.

In the Select Soloist dialog,

you can click on the button beside the “Trade 4's” radio control to select whether

you want the first four bars or the second four bars. If set to 1

, the soloist will

take bars 1-4, 9-12, etc. And if set to 2

, it will solo on bars 5-8, 13-16, etc.

The fours are based on the beginning of the chorus, not the first bar of the song.

You can generate four bars trading off with each other in two ways. The easiest

way is to choose the Normal Solo mode, and select the “Change Instrument

Every 4 bars” option. This results in different instruments taking four bar solos.

Another method is to choose the trade 4's option, generate 4's using the first

setting, and then choose SOL | Edit Soloist Track | Swap Melody and Soloist

Track, and then generate a solo again, using the second set of four bars. This

will result in 4's with one track on Melody and the other on the Soloist track.

Automatic Guitar Chord Solos – “The Guitarist”

With Band-in-a-Box, you can generate a guitar chord solo for any melody.

Band-in-a-Box will intelligently arrange the melody into a guitar chord solo by

inserting real guitar voicings throughout the piece. You can select from among

many Guitarists to create your arrangement. And you can define your own

Guitarists, choosing parameters such as strum speed, types of voicings

(Pop/Jazz), embellishments, and many more. You can easily make and learn a

professional quality guitar chord solo to your favorite song!

Generate a Guitar Chord Solo

Load in a song with a melody in it. We suggest the song GIT_TEST that should

be in your Songs folder. If it isn't there, choose the song “Old Folks at Home”

or any other song with a melody.

Open the Guitar window (Ctrl+Shift+G).
