| How do you put three chords in a measure? I want two beats of C, one Beat C#, and one beat of D. In a four beat measure how do you make the first chord three beats and the second chord one beat? Thanks in advance for the help |

In the first box C,C in the second box C#,D
or in the first box C in the second box C#,D
The comma is the key. I hope this helps.

You have to right click on the measure where you want the chords. This will bring up a drop down. Click on Chord settings. Another box will pop up. Click on the blank box next to the word, chords. Then type D.
Click on the circle button numbered 2, then click on the now blank box again and type D. Click on the circle box next to the 3, then click on the blank box and type in C#. click on 4 and the box and type in D.
Hit OK at the bottom of the box. Your BIAB measure will read: D D C# D

| Thanks everyone. I hunted around the help menu, but couldn't find the solution. The comma thing is so simple. |

Another common way of encountering three
chords within one measure (of four beats)
is having them articulated
as half-note triplets.

I get 3 chords in 3 beats in 3/4 time by putting 2 chords in the 1st box and 1 in the second box.
