janicelynn, if I remember correctly, what is called a 4-bar ending in newer versions of BIAB is actually a 2-bar ending that is allowed to decay for two more bars, making it sound more natural.

Keep in mind that endings are much improved in BIAB 2011. For the first time, I am now able to record a BIAB song straight, with no editing, and make a creditable demo. Since you are particularly concerned about endings, I believe you would be very pleased with the upgrade. You can still do editing afterward that rharv mentions, but there will be much less of it needed.
