Many of these styles make use of a feature added in Band-in-a-Box 2006 that allows instrument changes in the "b" section of tunes. The styles will play fine on previous versions but the "instrument change in the "b" section" feature will be unavailable. In most cases, the instrument changes are subtle and are used to brighten up or slightly change the "b" section. For example, Tremolo Strings at "a" might change to Slow Strings at "b."

Remember that effects like reverb, chorus, and panning are not embedded in a Style so these settings should be set by the user and saved with the tune from the main song page (Alt+F2). The demo tunes for these styles follow the same naming convention as the styles themselves. For example, the DEMO song for CELINE1.STY is CELINE1MGU.

All Styles Sets, including this one, are available as part of the Band-in-a-Box MegaPAK software bundle. Get them all with the Band-in-a-Box MegaPAK, available for both Windows and Macintosh.
