You really don't need to have much data to understand that software with a Windows 95/3.1 era interface will be a tough sell to the younger generation!

Those of us who LOVE what BIAB can do for us still admit that!

The first thing you need to completely understand is that BIAB is NOT a DAW. Making comparisons to Cubase, Sonar, Protools, Studio one or any other multitrack Digital RECORDING software is an innane comparison. Different purposes, different software.

Nope. When discussing music software tools it is absolutely appropriate to compare to other state-of-the-art music software tools. Great GUI is great GUI regardless of the program you are using!

The real magic is that BIAB integrates seamlessly with your DAW of choice

Well, "seamless" has a definition! When I open Kontakt inside Reaper...now that is seamless. But, as great as BIAB is (and IT IS GREAT), creating tracks and exporting them to MIDI or WAV files and then importing those into my DAW is anything but seamless! Yeah, it works but it ain't that slick in this day and age!

So go ahead and use you favorite DAW to record, but MAKE music with BIAB.

I certainly agree with you here. But, the conversation was not "we CAN'T make music with these tools" rather it was "how can BIAB be improved?"

Finally, this topic is for posting specfic ideas that will improve the BIAB experience. If you wish to vent your diappointment and misunderstanding of what you purchased, please take your opinion to the " Off topic" forum.

Quite the contrary, this is the perfect forum for this conversation. The GUI needs improvement so the wishlist is the best place to talk about this!

I do not mean to sound all negative as I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this product!!! But if we can encourage PG to improve the GUI it is a win for all of us, especially PG as their market would grow overnight!
