I have UltraPlusPak and have never regretted it. If you start with PlusPak, you will not have enough RTs etc to keep you excited in my opinion. Its best to enter the chords yourself. You CAN use the Auto Chord Wizard to try and find chords to fit your mel;ody line BUT if its only a solo melody the program will have little guidance as to key and nuance and so may come up with the wrong chords.

The starter pack will leave you wanting.

OP UdoBS Newbie U Joined: Dec 2016 Posts: 3	Hi Ian , Thanks for your interesting answer.I play guitar and a Tyros 5 and I wanted the BIAB to help me to find the right chords. I don't mean Tonica , dominate and Subdominante but sometimes you think it is the correct chord but its not and that single wrong chord leads you on a complete wrong track if you know what I mean Anyway thanks for your opinion Cheers Udo

It is hardly ever wrong. Enter those in. BIAB is pretty good with 80%. Use this for the other 20. http://www.all-guitar-chords.com/chord_name.php David Snyder Songwriter/Renaissance Man Studio + Fingers https://davidsnydersongs.com/ https://spoti.fi/359Gigs www.davidsnydermusic.com/ www.reverbnation.com/davidpsnyder www.soundcloud.com/davidsnyderchannel https://www.songtradr.com/user/profile/david.snyder
