Over 255 bar Limit and Live Arranger Idea #832738 12/09/24 12:05 AM Band-in-a-Box VST and Pro Tools/AAX DAW Plugin (Windows)

More bars would allow the Plugin Standalone to be used as a Live Arranger generating up the different chord sections for the chosen Style then being able to smooth seek to the bar of Midi imputed keyboard chord. If it's used as a DAW Plugin the played sections can be recorded then transferred into the DAW as the song. https://stash.reaper.fm/u/ReaTrak (Scripts for Biab Reaper) Working In Biab & Reaper Simultaneously and Instantly

It can also have a choice of Endings. With the Plugin Standalone these Live Arranger Styles can be all saved frozen with "Save State" just saving as a small SGU only that will instantly load "Load State" and play, just like changing tape sets in your Mellotron. If they give the Plugin more bars than 255 like RealBand it will give more material for the Live Arranger. With the live tempo now you can change bpm so easy on the fly. https://stash.reaper.fm/u/ReaTrak (Scripts for Biab Reaper) Working In Biab & Reaper Simultaneously and Instantly

You just need to add other section colors to wok with a multi style or to create custom track sections, like with just one instrument playing. more bars than 255 for Arranger mode, more 4 bar endings with a color part marker midi input chord detection and keyswitch settings midi input synth option for right hand notes With the "Save State" this is good to allow users to make up their unique Style/key for the Live Arranger, solo tracks can be muted if not needed. I think this is something that can be done now with not much work. I have shown it all working in that terrible Reaper, as Reaper detected a midi chord input it went to a region that corresponded with that chord name and part color in the Plugin smoothly and seamlessly and just looped that region until a new chord was entered. https://stash.reaper.fm/u/ReaTrak (Scripts for Biab Reaper) Working In Biab & Reaper Simultaneously and Instantly
