This is especially true if you narrow down your MIDI synth/sampler possibilities to a few that you can come to know really well. Once you've been through it a few times, it is possible to use a rather simple sounding GM synth inside BB, say it is set for an Electric Piano, get the thing working together well as a basic songfile, and then export to your DAW in the knowledge that once you substitute that special sounding and lush Rhodes patch, you will have what you want or what the project demands. So unless the songfile I'm working on is destined to be played back inside BB such as in a live performance using the laptop, I'm not all that concerned with BB being able to entertain me at the moment. --Mac PGmusic FAQs, Tutorials and Updates! click here You must be Audiominds. www.audiominds.com
