I was blown away by how good the pedal steel and fiddle were. Judge for yourself, also any feedback will be appreciated as always. Thanks!

I use to spend hours finding the right steel or fiddle loop on parts of a recording that I could use. With BIAB it sure makes it easy and you sure have mastered it my friend! Thanks again, RodM

The bumper sticker said "I'm a veterinarian, therefore I can drive like an animal". Suddenly I realized how many proctologists are on the road. 64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
