I bought BIAB 2016 in December. I loved the demos and thought the real tracks would be great to write and record with. Since then I have learned that pushes don't work too well. When I called PG, I was told they work in some styles and not in others. Does anyone have a list of the ones that don't work or the ones that do? No pushes makes for a dull song.

So I thought perhaps I could change the drums to midi and use a Hi-Q patch. That way I could use notation or piano roll to get pushes. Then I would record audio bass and guitars on top of that. No good on that either. I can't find Hi-Q patches for drums. And, when I get a midi patch for the drums, all I hear is cymbals.

I tried starting with a midi style and adding a couple of real instruments. No go there either.

I watched the videos. None of that worked. Frustrating.

So here is what I am looking for. I want to be able to make tracks that have some pushes and have some real tracks or high-quality drums. Anyone have any suggestions? Anybody else having these problems with 2016?

Thanks.
