Eddie,

I would say that applies to BIAB and Real Band. To me they are so well integrated that they are almost synonymous.

I also compose by just sitting down at the piano and playing with Sonar (or Real Band) set to a midi channel and hit record and have it on the entire time I am noodling. It is a lot less expensive than tape!!

Then I can export the midi and use BIAB to tell me what I just did. (Chord recognition yo.) Love it.

I may change some of the chords back to what I had intended, or I may say Eb6? Thank you Band in a Box! Never thought of it. But I'll go with that!!!

smile

When I am just laying out chords though I will work with a BIAB style that approximates what I am trying to do, and work with that until I am ready for export to a DAW.

I honestly cannot grasp any complaints about BIAB and RB. They are quite honestly the most amazing tools I have ever seen if you use them for that they were intended for--generating tracks and composing.
