>> Although it would take a comment from the programmers to confirm, I believe this isn't quite correct. While the calculations to fit the phrases to the song have already been done the bulk of the work remains. The phrases still have to be assembled from the master audio files and any pitch correction and stretching still needs to be done. It'll be faster, for sure, but not immediate.

Paul,

Yes, this is correct. On a fast machine, this appears to be instant, maybe 1-2 seconds until playback starts.

(RealBand is different. It saves the actual audio, so playback there would be instant, and every song is "frozen")

Have Fun!
