In this video BIAB MIDI Styles for Faster Styles I show how you can import a MIDI file to create a style that you can use in creating songs. This is especially useful if you can't find the style you're looking for in the re-arranged BIAB style Paks. The quality of your MIDI file is important but this works across all genres of music.

Thanks Henry. I have used midi files included with BIAB and assigned real tracks to those files, but never used a famous song for this. Great extra step. I'm 71 years old but still love making music. I appreciate you.

Thanks for the pointer regarding loading the chords never thought of doing it that way round cheers my good man

@henryclarke5407 4 месяца назад

Even without MIDI files I still type the chords in FIRST before I audition style. I've had a lot of success doing it this way and even discovered some new ways to do a cover that I had never thought of before.

Hi Henry. thank you for this very informative video. There aren't alot of solid BiaB content creators, much less in our age bracket. My question is, do you have a preferred site(or sites) that you like to go to for midi files? back in the 90s there were tons but I'm not having alot of luck.

@henryclarke5407 4 месяца назад

So,... i look now some of your videos and the declarations - and i have to speak out a compliment for your kind of bringing the technique into a simple and understanding form. I'm no musician and i tinker my songs with failplay on keyboard and repare the import on my DAW. But some songs in my mind i couldn't get out, because of the missing science of the chord-universe (i'm better with lyrics). Now i think this could be possible with your training, ideas and maybe BiaB 2023 in next days. Thank you for the music and also your teachin' and motivation to me.

@angelvelazquez1537 4 месяца назад

Hey Henry, Thanks for your pointer, to what you just went over, I would use it with the new 2024 new features. Like the "MultiPicker" (F7). With this you can even refine the instrument selection even more for the style your creating. Peace!!!!

@henryclarke5407 2 месяца назад

I finally have 2024 and did use it. It's a pretty good function.

@AdrianGeorges 4 месяца назад

Thanks, very helpful. What would be interesting, is to add little changes to the saved style. But it is a lot more easier than beginning totally from scratch.

@henryclarke5407 4 месяца назад

The goal is to get away from programming. Yes you can edit the style but for me I'd rather mold my music to the existing style. I'm trying to keep programming to a minimum.

@user-hz5rq5xj3z 4 месяца назад

Excellent as always, thank you! Can you or another subscriber comment on how this might apply to Mac 2022 BiaB? I've seen in other Mac vs. Windows BiaB differences that similar features may be available but through a different set of Menus. My 2022 BiaB Mac Stylemaker only offers 2 options: "New - Make A New Style" and "Edit A Style". While its 'make a new style' then provides a grid of individual instruments' patterns that I presume are for literally changing or adding specific beats or hits to each.

@mailghall 3 месяца назад

I noticed the same thing with my 2024 Mac version. Thanks for pointing that out.

@henryclarke5407 3 месяца назад

I'm sorry. Since I don't have a Mac version I'm not able to comment and help you. That may be a question for PG Music help desk.

@zedxxx9 3 месяца назад

Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems like you simply used the stylepicker to present you with BIAB styles most similar to "My Guy", and then you selected the one you liked best and then renamed it as a new style. Did the MIDI have anything to do with anything other than to allow you to hear the styles with the chords of your intended song?

@henryclarke5407 3 месяца назад

You missed the whole point. The MIDI file was loaded FIRST then I used styles in the stylepicker to match the feel of the MIDI file. Once I did that I saved that as a style to be reused as I see fit.

@zedxxx9 3 месяца назад

@@henryclarke5407 -- I don't think I missed the point. My point is that you didn't actually use the MIDI file for anything other than reference, and in the end simply renamed an existing BIAB style. What would be really cool is if BIAB (like a Toontrack product) could do it's best to match the feel of your imported MIDI file to present the closest bass, drum and supporting Realtracks that most closely match the MIDI file so that a totally new style can be saved which gives you the best options on a track by track basis.

@henryclarke5407 3 месяца назад

The MIDI file is what set up the feel. That is the point. To use the MID file for reference. If you just played the style by itself it would work as well. Have you tried it?@@zedxxx9

@zedxxx9 3 месяца назад

@@henryclarke5407 -- I'm gonna try it both ways to try to understand what could cause it be different. I'll get back to you. Thanks!

@waldemarpawlik1458 4 месяца назад

Henry, I don't get it. If you already have a MIDI file of a particular song, why go and mess with it?

@henryclarke5407 4 месяца назад

It's the style you want. Not the song. If you have the STYLE you can write YOUR OWN song in that style. The goal is not to duplicate the MIDI song but use it as a basis for creating your own composition. Does that make sense?

@duesenberger 4 месяца назад

Thx for this video. Just a question for understanding. At 8:40 You say ther would be no style associated with the song but when I look at the interface I see "X ZZJAZZ.STY Jazz Swing Style" under MYBABYT. Is that an empty style?

@henryclarke5407 4 месяца назад

Yes. That's just a leftover style from something else I was doing. But REMEMBER !. There is no style enabled until I use the style I created in the video. I hope that makes sense . :-)
