Style changes. “Swing Two/Four” without Four?

Is there a way to keep the styles in the 1st chorus the same in subsequent choruses? Ex: Two beat 16bars then 4/4 16 bars. After the first chorus the whole thing goes to 4/4.

Just found a work around. I set repeats to 16 times and everything stays the same until I need to cut it off.

While there's no way to change the programing for a style, you may be able to "trick" it.

Try making the entire chart the "1st chorus" by using repeat brackets and a multi-repeat text instruction instead of increased player repeats (which should be set to 1x)

You may need to edit the chart further to remove some rehearsal marks or some repeating section shortcuts.

For help with a specific chart, please post the chart.

Linus And Lucy - Vince GUARALDI This is for a line dance at a Christmas party. I need the whole song to play the same as the first chorus.

Is this what you want?

This entire chart plays in "two".
Apparently 16x is the most repeats possible without an error message.
Song-repeats in the player is set to 1.
@158 bpm the chart still plays for 24 minutes.
Instead of the B rehearsal mark, I used text.

I'm using the Swing 2-4 style with repeat signs and 10x repeats. I have the 4/4 part marked as letter B.
