Zeke,

Just keep asking questions and we'll keep coming up with answers. I understand what you mean about RealBand not making sense.

There are days when RealBand or Band-in-a-Box don't work for me. Most of the time it's just one or the other so I can still get things done.

Both programs are like photography, easy to start but a lot of depth. It's actually pretty easy to put a song together and get it 85% of the way you want it. But the other 15% takes a lot of digging, expermentation and learning.

There are many experienced users on this forum that enjoy helping. There are normally multiple ways to approach an issue. Most of the time somebody will come up with an answer that makes sense to you. When that happens, and the lightbulb goes off, it makes everyones day brighter.
