Rharv, Thanks again for the reply. I read your posts daily and can tell that you like RealBand as an end product. Perhaps you take things a few steps farther than I do. I do have RealBand [2013 Everything Pak.], and there are times when I mess around with RealBand. I do find it rather hard to get interested in. I also have Studio One, Reaper, Cool Edit Pro 2, Anvil Studios plus Sony this and that. All have strong points. Cool Edit Pro 2 being my favorite. It is out of date to most folks, but I find it to be user friendly. I have used BIAB since Version 12, next was 2008.5, next was 2010.5. I have since updated to each new version except 2013.5, and that hasn't happened yet smile Let me ask this question. If I start a song edit in BB, send it to RealBand to add Audio files as you suggested. Can I then open it back in BB to play, as if it were a sgu or mgu? Because I like using BB on my lap top. I do not need 48 tracks to make a big production. RealDrums, Piano, Jim, and myself on vocals and 5 string bass. It has worked for me. Most gigs are coffee houses, plus we have lots of winerys in the area which are great venues for a duo or a single performer with BIAB, a small mixer, a pair of QSC K12's with a Lap Top on a music stand.-----Leon
