Are these supposed to show up in my songs window or was that not classic (too long ago to remember)? Right now they all show up on my normal buff effects window. Using duxa UI if that has anything to do with it.

Classic

Bard songs originally went to the normal buff box/bar, which classically only has 15 slots. The "short duration buff" window did not exist during the original trilogy, looks like it came into existence on Jan 9, 2003 with the death of the Classic and Velious UIs.

We have added a new window to the interface along with new game functionality. The Songs window is a new buff window that holds up to 6 bard song buffs. This increases the potential maximum effects that a character can have to 21 (15 standard and the 6 new ones). The new window only holds certain bard songs (generally the 3-tick songs). Only beneficial songs will qualify for the new buff box, and not all of those. Any buff in the new Songs window is considered temporary and will not be saved when you zone.
