Hi Ed,

Great work with the songs.

Regarding Realband where you said...
Quote:

My understanding about Real Band was that once the tracks (instruments) are in RB, there is no re-gen time required

Whenever a track has to be generated, as I'm sure you're aware, it requires samples of pre-recorded files to be sliced up, rearranged and compiled to create a track that conforms with the chord progression that a user has put in. This will always require computer time to accomplish. Maybe the person who misled you was talking about loading a song back into RB that had been saved as an SEQ file. Since this is a complete file, and regeneration of the tracks is not required, the song will play much quicker.

As I understand it, Realband and BIAB both take about the same amount of time regenerate a track. A BIG difference though, is that BIAB begins playing before regeneration is complete and the remaining regeneration is accomplished as a background process. RB, on the other hand, fully completes regeneration before commencing playback.

Hope this information is of use,
Noel
