And when your answer is ___________________, then please tell me if that DAW program will generate drums, bass, piano, rhythm guitar, banjo, mandolin, fiddle..... so I don't have spend hours playing and replaying stuff to fix all the clams.




This is the ONLY thing that RealBand has over any other DAW, and that is even questionable UNLESS folks like us like & use the fantastic AI that PGMusic supplies us with. There are a lot of folks that still consider RealTracks / RealDrums "cheating", and in the ball park of cheap Casio Auto-Arrangements backing tracks...their loss!

The gist of almost every one of those conversations is "I have been doing it this way since before there was electricity." I would like to ask someone to compile a list of what these glaring shortcomings are in RB that would prevent someone from working.

It looks like this was covered in the above answerers & else where on the forum. Since it does not affect yourself why do ya need a list? You have experience with Sonar & ProTools, how about you create a list of what RealBand does better-faster-slower-does not do....besides creating realistic tracks from the chords you enter!


/hacker hat on

I gave my list of what problems I was having, and a short list of software that was having problems in RB. If you feel the need to spend the $$ on them, be my guest! LOL

//hacker hat off


Tempo Matching & Solid VST Support are a need, not a feature in today's DAW world. These shortcomings place RB in the Linux Audio world, because you can record-edit-manipulate audio all day in Ardour/Mixbus, or midi in Rosegarden & Open Octave, but since I can not either tempo match a drum track or delay, OR use the VST-VSTi's that I have inve$$ted in it gets put to the side for something that does work with these items.


And I agree that the crew at PGMusic are heads & shoulders above a LOT of companies out there both in vision and programing. The problems are NOT show stopping, you can still use RB & work around them, but why? I found a system, a work flow, that works FOR ME. So instead of sitting around waiting, I am making music using the BiaB - DAW of choice & loving it!


And all of this is, once again, a IMHO, YMMV, yada yada post. RB does not work for everyone, and there is a list of problems that has been there for a long time.
