Sly, I just bought this bundle and it is amazing! the tools are incredible and the presets can save you a ton of time! now some folks will poo poo presets and advise you that you need to study for years until you become an "expert" but I say "Bah, Humbucker!" Jump right in, grab a preset by the tail, tweak it a little and you've got a pretty great result! Rinse and Repeat until you have an album. Master it with Ozone and make a down payment on that Ferrari! (ok, maybe wait to buy the Ferrari!)

The one qualifier I will add is I do my mixing in Reaper, not BIAB or RealBand. So someone here will need to help you figure out the ins and outs of integration. But from my own personal experience, I'd recommend checking out a DAW like Reaper anyway. My workflow is, 1) write song, 2) use BIAB to generate tracks (if I need them), 3) export tracks from BIAB, 4) import BIAB tracks into Reaper along with my vocal and other tracks and then 5) do all my mixing, editing, mastering, etc. in Reaper.
