J just to clarify one thing. The pedal automatically senses your chords and chord changes, over a phrase, then lets you quickly select a style and jam. BIAB may have that capability as you referenced in the old video. BIAB is not as easy as just play a chord progression pick a style and start playing along with yourself. You have to put the chord progression into the BIAB program. Easy to learn how to do.

But, Trio has a limit to the styles, many fewer than even the basic package of BIAB. It has a limit to the length of the progression you can record. And you only get 2 instruments in Trio Bass and Drums. The number of instruments in BIAB that you can play all at once is 7, and also record an Audio Track. In addition to that Trio cannot easily save, edit, orchestrate unlimited compositions that you create for future use.

You can make unlimited .mp3s of your song Ideas in BIAB/RealBand (PC Version) and email them to your musician friends, put them on your iPod or other media player, phone, tablet.

PG has a 30 day money back guarantee and so you can try BIAB out if its not what you want then you just let PG know it and they will give you your money back.

GHinCH is correct if you want to COOK use the TRIO, if you want to become a CHEF get BIAB.
