for some reason RealBand seems to load my projects very slowly. A project that loads and generates in about 10 seconds in BIAB takes 90 seconds to load and play in RealBand. And if I export my tracks into Reaper the project loads and plays instantly (of course I understand it is not generating RealTracks!)



John, look at what you just said here. "export to Reaper". Do the same thing to Real Band and it opens instantly too. Use the D&D DAW function. You're opening a Biab file in RB so yes, it's regenerating all the parts. What RB is telling you is how long it really takes to generate those tracks. Biab has a trick called "fast generation". It starts playing your tune before it has finished generating because 99% of the time you don't stop the song right away. If you stop it too soon and then hit play immediately after, Biab locks up because it hasn't finished generating.
