Thanks Mario! I actually replaced the SoundCloud file with a new version with a re-done vocal and a bit of work on the drums.

As I've been listening to more of other folks' tracks with the many available RealTracks styles, and reviewing what is in each $79 to $99 package, I decided that I "needed" to buy at least 3 or 4 additional RT sets. So this morning I decided to just bite the bullet and order the "Ultra" package on a hard drive.

I figure that every music making tool I buy is good for at least one song, and I've been getting a lot of mileage the last year out of cheap music apps on the iPod Touch and iPad (my favorites are GarageBand, ChordBot, ThumbJam, Animoog, iShred, and StrumStage - all under $5 each when I bought them, and all have produced at least one song, though GB has given birth to dozens). Of course BIAB has launched MANY songs over the years, and I figure that each RealTracks set probably counts as a "tool" - so I am looking at hundreds of new songs from this one purchase! A "bahgain" as we say in New England.

Cheers,
Bruce

P.S. "Dozens of songs" makes it sound like I'm incredibly proficient. I am - at STARTING songs. And often with producing a first verse and chorus. It's those pesky second verses and bridges that hold me up. What I need is a good second-verse generation app. Or maybe RealLyrics for BIAB?
