Icelander,

Two HUGE advantages RealBand has over (the Windows version of) Band-in-a-Box when working with RealTracks concern features unique to RealBand.

Feature 1: With Band-in-a-Box a complete track is regenerated but in RealBand you can highlight a track section then regenerate just the highlighted section.

Feature 2: With Band-in-a-Box you regenerate as many times as need to get the track the way you want but in RealBand you can not only highlight a track section for regeneration, you can specify "multiriff" regeneration. When "multi-riff" is engaged, the section will regenerate seven times. The seven regenerations can stay on the same track or occupy seven empty tracks. You audition each separately then check off the keepers.

My guess are most likely the most used features of RealBand and the reasons why many people start to use RealBand.

Because I consider BiaB an accompaniment program and RealBand more of a track editing program I do not agree with this request.
