I get the feeling many dismiss my sentiments out of hand without really considering them, but oh well. It's the internet.


I apologize if my remarks upset you. I was/am coming from the position of what a professional musician should do if they're using BIAB for demo submissions or singer/songwriter demos. If you're selling yourself as a songwriter to publishers, or making a vocal demo to submit to a label, you don't want anything to get in the way of your message. Telling a publisher or label "how you did it" or crediting the live musicians means nothing to them. It detracts, and that was my only point.

I understood your sentiments and considered them carefully before I made any response. I'm only pointing out that from a professional point of view, it isn't done, nor is it a good idea. If you only do this stuff for fun, then I agree with you; spread the word. I'm sure I've helped BIAB sell a lot of copies of this wonderful program. Hell, I even worked the BIAB booth at their first NAMM show so that Peter could take a break.

Yeah, it's the Internet, but I spent a lot of money on phone calls to Peter in Canada in the early days, and he considered me a Beta tester back then, so I'm not exactly new to BIAB, Peter Gannon, or the music industry in general.
