Chapter 11: User Programmable Functions 171

rename that harmony “Shearing - modified” and you can make changes to it

(such as using different instruments).

You should never have to press these [Save] buttons since the harmony is saved

automatically for you. All of the 256 harmonies are saved in a single.har file

called default.har. If you have run out of harmonies, you can start a new

harmonies file by pressing the [SaveAs]. For example, if you want to make a

disk of add-on harmonies, you can make one and save it as MyName.HAR.

Then you could share it with other Band-in-a-Box users who could load in your

bank of harmonies (from the Har| Edit a Harmonies File…) without disrupting

their own existing default.har file.

As stated above, each .har file has 256 harmonies, so you probably need only 1

file (default.har) for all your harmonies. But if you've made a great harmony

and want to give it to your friend for example, you can export a single harmony

as a.h1 file. Your friend can then import this harmony into their .har file. Or,

you could upload some.h1 files that you've created to your favorite web site for

other Band-in-a-Box users to enjoy by importing them into their default.har

harmonies file.

The best way

to develop a harmony is to hear it as it’s playing. The preferred way to do this is

to have a song playing that has a melody in it. Any changes to the harmony will

be heard on the melody as soon as you press the [Update] button. You can also

play along as the song is playing, and hear the new harmony on the Thru

channel.

If you don't want to have a song playing, and want to hear the harmony, then set

the Test Chord to a certain chord. Then you can play on the MIDI keyboard

(with no song playing) and hear your harmony. This allows you to examine

exactly what notes BB is using to make your harmony.

Additional Harmony Settings are accessed

by pressing the MORE button, which brings up the following dialog box:
