10 easy steps to make a Soloist:

1. Bring up the Soloist window by pressing the [Solo] Button or

Shift+F4.

2. Select a blank spot in your list of soloists and press the Soloist Maker

[Edit] button.

3. Insert the title of your soloist and any memo note you wish to add.

(The Num field will be filled in for you.) Call this one “Bebop

Saxophone.” For the memo, you can put in information like, “Basic

bebop Sax solo, will work with most swing styles. Check “Double

Time?” if tempo is slower.”

4. Choose the type of soloist, i.e., Swing 8th notes, Even 8th notes, Swing

16th notes, etc. This should be set to Swing 8ths.

5. This style uses the default ST2 database, J_SWING.ST2. Another

choice could be made from the Soloists folder by clicking on the [.ST2]

button.

Press the [Choose] button to select the instrument the soloist should

play (i.e. Tenor Saxophone).

Note: You may also select an instrument from the Patch Change window, but selecting an

instrument with the 'choose' button also fills in the note range information specific to that

instrument. You'll notice that the correct range for tenor saxophone has been filled in to the

Note Range settings.

7. Modify (if required) the phrase length, space length, and outside range

parameters.

8. Change the Legato Boost to 10 %. This will add 10% to the duration of

the notes.

9. Increase the Lateness by -5. This will play the notes more “on the

beat” than other jazz soloists.

10. Increase the 8th Note spacing by -5. This will play the 8th notes in a

more even feel than other Jazz soloists.

If your screen looks something like the one below, press [OK]. Then, give

Band-in-a-Box a few moments to load its knowledgebase of solo ideas and new

parameters, and an additional few moments to analyze the chords. Playback will

then begin automatically. Enjoy the solo!
