I use Sonar X3c as my DAW. Why? Because I am very familiar with Cakewalk DAWs and it fits my workflow. That is probably do to the fact that I have used Cakewalk products for many years now. This is my main reason to using Sonar. I would rather make music with a DAW that I know than to learn another DAW, i.e. I don’t have a lot of time and I am a slow learner.

But I say to everyone who purchases BiaB if you don’t have a favorite DAW then by all means use RealBand. You already have it. RB can and has produced music as good as any other DAW. You can never tell what DAW was used when you are listening to music----period!

The fitness trainer asked me, "What kind of a squat are you accustomed to doing?" I said, "Diddly."


64 bit Win 11 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
