Hi....while I've been learning how to make backing tracks in BIAB and also bring them into RB for adding more midi instrument files or already existing audio files, I'm a total novice when it comes to the idea of recording something "live" into RB. I've made a few tracks in both BIAB and RB and now want to try to add myself both vocally and on my horn(I'm a trumpet player) to make a demo CD,etc. Is RealBand like a recording program to be able to do this?(not that I'm knowledgable on those either,heh) If so, what do I use to plug mics into and/or where would that plug into the computer? Am I able to have "playback" of the existing song while I record?

Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated.

thanks,
Phil
