I am just in a time crunch right now. This CD has to be done and ready to record by fall because three of the players are music teachers. One in junior high, 2 in college. Once school starts, I lose them.




This is the problem and I'm not blaming you, you didn't create the time crunch but you are frustrated because you're trying to use a new tool that you're not familiar with on a project with a very short deadline. That is a recipe for disaster. I totally understand too because I've done it. Or, more to the point, tried to. A few years ago my good friend Eddie Greely who's since died was having health problems and I subbed for him on a solo gig so I put Biab on my laptop and thought I could use the Conductor feature live and do the gig that way. I had only read about that, not actually done it. Well, yes it's possible but not in a week with me still doing my full time job. It wasn't doing what I thought it should and like you I was burning up the paint on my walls with juicy epithets. I was running out of time so I fired up my old rusty, dusty Alesis SR16 drum machine and did the gig that way. That Alesis with just me playing keys sucks compared to what Biab sounds like but I was out time and that's it. A few weeks later I had it all figured out and now I know how to do a live gig using the Conductor but you can't all of sudden put that kind of pressure on yourself with a brand new product you're not intimitely familiar with. I'll say this though it does focus your attention and you can learn a lot quickly as long as you keep away from that ammo box...
