If I understand it - there's no live playing on this one? Just the solos as come with realtracks bundled with BIAB.

This explains the strange transitions. My first impression was - great playing! but the guitarist needs to work on resolving or I was wondering if the solos were not following form (I was fairly passive in my listening).

I was also noticing strange jumps in range - so using realtracks I understand. As this is a "feature" of the realtracks solos that stands out. Sometimes the range will shift abruptly seemingly mid-phrase and this is just a case of not all phrases link together perfectly.

As far as the bass playing - I thought it was great (not N.H.0.P. great, but still great). The start was a bit "off" but interestingly - it kind of sounded like what a human would do if the guitarist didn't sound like they resolved and the bass player was put on the spot to start a solo where they felt the guitarist would go on for longer.

Which kind of folds into a wishlist:

1) Ability to make end of solo play a more resolving phrase
2) Ability to limit difference of last note of a RT "segment" to the start of the next RT "segment" (which can cut down on the "jumps" if that's what you want)
Note there are other cases where "segments" do not fit together. Some tracks the soloist has a wide range of tone (Eric on Sax for example) so darker phrases and brighter phrases stand out when merged together.
3) Ability to limit repeating an RT "segment" (I didn't hear anything that stood out in the recording here). Although it would be interesting if I could go to a RT rendered part - click on the chorus#/bar# and swap out just that one RT "segment" (phrase) to something else if there was a part I felt was not satisfying enough. Maybe RealBand allows this as I am more often using BIAB.

It's great that BIAB keeps you guessing between computer produced and live. Nice showcase.
