I've made changes in both notation and the piano roll, creating a mute region for two or three measures, adding my own green notes, then freezing the drums & regenerating the song. For a few playbacks after that it works fine, and then for no apparent reason the changes vanish, and I have to start all over again. I've done this with two other songs and never had problems. I wish I knew what was wrong now. I have BIAB 2023 on a Dell desktop with Windows 11, and everything's up to date. Thanks!

I wonder if too many regenerations undoes the changes? Just a guess... Too many regenerations shouldn't have that effect, however, one way to explore this is to save the song after each change with a new name (MySong_1.sgu, MySong_2.sgu), etc. Ensure to freeze the tracks first. Then see if the issue reoccurs.
