Biab ...
Doesn't get drunk and and out of time.

Funny, but I remember in the earliest days of RealDrums, that one was actually false. The state of the art in PCs ten years ago was such that things like wireless mice or misbehaving network cards could cause latency problems in digital audio. I used to describe the resulting sound as "having the drummer playing while falling down stairs"! I'm glad we're almost completely past that sort of problem now.
My experience as a BIAB evangelist may be different from most of you because, while I can play horns, I do not play piano, guitar, bass or drums. Thus, composing, or at least checking what I composed, was difficult. I received tons of inquiries about how I wrote all the songs on my CD, and the answer that surprised everyone was BIAB. I know I was responsible for some sales.
Richard, I will never be close to the best accordion player in any trailer park, but I've had a good run with music. For the last 24 years, BIAB has had a lot to do with that.
