Send GM mode at startup

For sound modules that are GM compatible, this command will ensure that the

module is ready to accept GM-specific MIDI data such as Bank, Controller, and

Patch information.

Send GS Mode On at startup

For sound modules that are GS compatible, this command will ensure that the

module is ready to accept GS-specific MIDI data such as Bank, Controller, and

Patch information.

Note: Many newer modules/keyboards made by Roland and others can take

advantage of the extra parameters and features found in the GS mode. We

recommend using this mode rather than the GM mode if your synth supports it.

Similarly, many newer Yamaha modules/keyboards support the XG specification. If

your synth supports this mode, we recommend using it in order to access more

parameters and patches than the GM standard provides. Some Yamaha XG

modules/keyboards can also be set to work in GS mode, if desired.

Send XG Mode On at startup

For sound modules that are XG compatible, this command will ensure that the

module is ready to accept XG-specific MIDI data such as Bank, Controller, and

Patch information.

Turn External Keyboard’s Local On at end of session

Normally while using Band-in-a-Box the “local-off” setting for your MIDI

keyboard is best, since the THRU part will be coming from Band-in-a-Box and

you don't want to hear your MIDI keyboard doubling the notes that are being

played. However, when you exit Band-in-a-Box, you might want the “local on”

setting for your synthesizer turned back on. This option defaults to true.

OK to beep with messages

Now that computers have better speaker systems, a simple “beep” when an

incorrect key is pressed can seem loud enough to “wake your neighbors.”

Setting the “silent beep” option allows Band-in-a-Box to visually flash the

window title bar to get your attention, instead of generating an audible “beep.”

OK to prompt to reduce/expand

If a style is changed with a different feel (16th notes instead of 8th notes), Band-

in-a-Box will automatically offer to expand or reduce the duration of the chords,

and change the tempo to accommodate the new style. This also works as the

song is playing.

Lowest Bass Note (E2 = default)

Styles will normally play bass notes (down to the low E) if the pattern won't go

below a low E. This happens with all styles automatically, but there is also an

option to set the lowest bass note real low so you can get a low C if you want to!
