I wrote a song in BiaB that contained the chord G13b9. I used the VST in my DAW, Studio One Pro, and the VST labeled the chord G13b9 in its chord sheet. But when I copied the chords over to my DAW via Pipeline's method the chord in Studio One was G7b9 13 9! This happened many times in this song.

This isn't a big issue as I know what the chord is supposed to be but I would like to know is this due to my system or is this a possible bug.

Thanx in advance for your time.


Unclear if the pianist is a total beginner or a professional jazz player?

S1 seems to put them in it's name
In RapidComposer you can have alias names for the same chord.
I don't know if you can edit them in S1 ?

This is the BB Chord Output Midi for G13b9, if I key the notes in the Chord Selector that's what I get:

Yes I can edit them in S1 very easily. I was just amazed at that chord name.

Yes, those are the notes for G13b9.

On the topic of the BIAB plugin used in Studio One and how it transfers chords using the Pipeline method:

Has anyone else had chords that are two per bar in the saved BIAB song end up interpreted as one per bar once transferred into the Studio One chord list?
Something like this |Cm | Cm F7 | can turn out to be |Cm | Cm | F7 |
It pushes all the other measures later each time it happens. Not too hard to fix, but.....

It should get them in the right spot as below in the pic.
In Song > Song Setup > Bar Offset -2
I draw 4 bars or more from bar 1 for initial chord then run the script.
Make sure you load the current Song.txt by unfolding the chord sheet, saving the SGU in the BBvst then reload it first.

Using the same technique as Pipeline everything here worked fine. In fact both [C F,G] and {Am7,Dm7 G7} worked perfectly.
