2. The midi section is SO outdated, I STILL can't use a decent midi sound set to record midi with in BIAB, We should be able to use Kontakt without issues, including ASIO issues that I STILL have. Yes, the ability to plug in other Midi instruments. I use Toontracks EZdrummer sometimes but it does not integrate into BIAB.

3. Notation>Its nice to see the notes, but the notation is still clunky and inaccurate. Why can't we have real Notation features, like Finale or Sibelius? Why is it so hard to edit notes? Why can't we save different sets of Notation (ex>Bass clef only, Treble only, etc) and save it for EACH song so that it works with the Jukebox, you dont need to go into the Leadsheet view and waste time.

4. Intros and Endings? I think you all know this is a huge weakness of BIAB, its time to address this. I don't want 2 bars of Bass hanging over, etc.
Yes intros and especially endings are not great and can spoil an otherwise great performance.

5. Its time to start putting packages together that address the tastes of each buyer. Why pay big $$ for RTs/RDs that you never will use, and take up HD space? Have 1 Package for Jazz Users, another for Country, another for Pop, etc. It brings the cost down, and makes it possible to pay for what you would use on the gig. How many of you are going to use "Loops"? Why should I pay for that? If I wanted Abelton Live, I'd get it.
Yes that would be good because I don't do any Jazz BUT it might be the only way BIAB gets paid for. If packages were cheaper it might not be cost effective to continue making?

6. RTs>There just isn't any "Life" in them! As a Trumpet player, the Horn RTs are a BIG let down. The problem is that the way RTs are recorded is very restrictive, there needs to be a better process in terms of the rules used.
Yes definately! I love having access to RT but I'd like to have new ones that sounds "hot" not bland. I wonder if they are over compressed?


As I've already said before, less Country and more "other" styles. More contemporary Praise & Worship styles, more pop, more rock, more reggae, more folk....you get the idea! I like making some country songs but I don't want to make everything Country. People like myself who play in church would use this but there's not much on offer for them.

Not trashing BIAB as you know, just giving feedback to an otherwise enjoyable program.
