I am always confused by the request for making BiaB more like Logic, protools, and Sonar. First off it is nothing like them period, it is an autoarrangment software, they are sequencers. Those other softwares do very little of what Biab does, so to me it is not important to have Biab do much of what they do.

Isn't that the job of powertracks and now Real Band? to grow into a competitor of the big name DAWs? In my opinion the only thing holding both RB and PTPA from being a direct competitor of Sonar, or Logic is the fact it is a bit behind in VSTi implimentation.

As far as multiple VSTi output that might be nice for the play live crowd with BiaB. To be able to use better synths would help, but i would hate to see it head directly toward the full DAW market. I like the fact that it does what it does. I have four different DAW programs on my system for tracking, one RB allows me to send BiaB files directly over and add what i want to them.

When you go to forums like Sonar, or Logic, one of the biggest complaints is that the programs are becoming so big and bloated that the are not stable. With all that Biab does not to add Something like Sonar into it, would be to me a kiss of death.

I would rather see what can become of RB for the next two or three years, and let BiaB make some samll tweaks for the time being.
