Years ago a schooled player called those scale tone sevenths because in the real world of playing, they're all 7th chords. Either dominant or major 7ths. To those who don't know, a dominant 7th is like a blues or country 7th. It's the Bb note in the key of C while a maj7 is the jazzier sound but of course there's plenty of exceptions in all genres. The maj7 is out of the major scale or the B natural in the key of C.

Silverback, this is an example of you don't really need to be a schooled musician to use Biab UNTIL you start getting into more advanced stuff. Biab does follow correct music theory so the more you know the better off you will be.

I don't know why so many users simply overlook Real Band. To me RB is the big kahuna in PGM's world. Biab has the bigger name and is great for simple song making but only 7 tracks and limited features while RB is where you can do everything you're talking about.

It's true that the RT soloists can be pretty good but many times the phrasing goes off course with certain chord changes. Creating a ton of different versions of the same solo in RB allows you to cut and paste to your hearts content until you get what you want. AND, to get even more advanced users will use Melodyne to tweak a RT solo even further by changing the actual audio notes.
