B patterns This row is for 1 bar drum patterns for the “b” substyle.

Fills This row is for 1 bar drum patterns for the “a” substyle.

Endings This row is for endings. Endings are 2 bars (2 patterns of 1 bar

each).

Tip: If you are making a simple style, you only need to use the top row (“a” patterns).

Bass / Piano / Guitar / Strings patterns:

- Are played in real time from a MIDI keyboard, MIDI guitar, etc. by

clicking on [Rec] or typing “r” with the cursor placed on the first dot of the

A or B section of the desired instrument starting with 8 Beat.

- Are played in based on a C7 chord (C E G Bb) though all 12 notes may be

used.

The patterns for Bass/Piano/Guitar/Strings are classified by the length of the

pattern, i.e., the number of notes that the chord lasts without a change of chord.

Click on the Piano/Guitar/Strings buttons to toggle

between each instrument’s A/B recording sections.

You get to the instrument screen by mouse clicking

on the instrument name button.

For example, click on the Bass button and you will see similar to the following:

The important rows are indicated with an asterisk *, meaning that if you are

making a simple style you'll only have to use these rows. The “a” and “b” refer

to the “a” and “b” substyles found in Band-in-a-Box. The numbers 1, 2, 4, 8

refer to the length of the recorded patterns in terms of number of beats. For

example, a 2 bar pattern would be = 8 beats.

Explanation of the numbers

on the StyleMaker screen.

The StyleMaker screen is full of patterns, mostly empty indicated by a period (.). When a

pattern has been recorded, there is a number in place of the period for example (5).

These numbers indicate whether a pattern has been recorded at the location.
