Best way to change battle music? Topic

If I want to have another song playing in a battle other than the regular theme that I have set in System settings, is there a way to make it happen without the regular song starting to play at all?
I've tried it with an event right before an encounter is engaged, but the song won't play (interrupted by the battle that starts). If I put it on a battle page (turn 1x), it starts playing a second or so after the battle has started, and has the regular theme playing right before that.

I'm thinking the only way is to have no battle music set under System, and just manually set it on a battle page? Or is there a way that I have missed to have another song to start playing the same time regular battle music would?

Doesn't the "Change System BGM" event command change the BGM assignment without playing it? It seems like it will change any of the system BGM assignments.

Ah, lol. I knew I was missing something. I had been looking through the list of events, can't believe I actually missed that. Thanks a lot.=P

Also, make a common event called "ResetBattleBGM" that changes the battle music to the BGM that you have set in the database. This will make things easier if you ever want to change the default/regular battle BGM in your game to a boss BGM, for example, and then want to change back.

Yeah, I have a common event playing right before an encounter, and one right after in which I set and reset a bunch of stuff.
