I will end my participation in the thread with three parting comments:

1) I already revealed exactly how to add 90% of the signature intros, solos, endings etc without having to play multiple instruments. Subsequent replies suggest that the writer didn't read what I wrote.

2) the statements "I don't know how" and "it's not possible" do not mean the same thing

3) to BobC regarding the statement that he would be incensed if somebody represented BIAB/RB as being capable of making backing tracks: A recurring theme in your observations about BIAB is that you see it as a totally automatic no-talent-needed song generator. You even compared it in the past to a graphics program that generates pictures, and expressed amazement that people claim credit for songs they created with BIAB. BIAB is a toolbox full of music making tools. Any toolbox is limited by the resourcefulness of the person who uses the tools.

I've heard harmonica players performing complex classical pieces... But *I* can't do that! Should I feel incensed if a music store salesman suggests that the harmonica is capable of that?

I speak to you as an accomplished and award winning guitar player: You can probably play passages that I can't play. Should I feel incensed if somebody suggests that the guitar is capable of things I can't currently do with it?

The answer is "NO" on all counts. The amount of investment in practice changes what is possible.

Now, I will agree that you can't plug in a bunch of chords, hit PLAY and have a note for note backing track come out the other end. If that's how you use PGMusic products, then that explains the direction this conversation has taken. That's NOT how *I* use the products. I can only speak for my results. But I stand fast in my original assertion that for me, the best and fastest way to get a backing track that sounds like the original is by using Real Band. (for this particular task, I don't use BIAB)

Merry Christmas!
