Count-in

Post by Sonny Jenkins »

Well my fellow fo'bro's,,,,I've had BIAB for 10+ years,,,but have only recently been attempting to "make peace" with it,,,,and make it "work" for me,,,and with all of ya'll's (that's a legal southern word,,LOL) and bro Rick Campbell's help, I'm getting there! Question du jour,,,I'm creating some, actually 8 successive, 16 bar tracks, each with a different chord progression (these are tracks from an "old" Jeff Newman seminar, intended to help in mastering the fretboard (works great,,but I would like to be able to change keys/styles/tempo). Is there a way to include a a count off (1-2-1,2,3,4 bam!) between each 16 bar series?????

I've never tried this, but I think it'll work. Make each 16 bar section a separate track with it's own name. You will be able to play it on it's own.

Then, using medley maker in BIAB, create a medley of the tracks that you want to practice. Each one can have it's own key, tempo and count in.

Or, you can create a folder just for these tracks and let jukebox play them. You can even set the delay time between tracks.

Hope this is helpful, good luck!
