There are great GUI designs out there (Cubase, ...) which you could imitate.

Even better, go all the way to look at MS Office latest smart "ribbons"............

Biab was designed and programed by musicians not GUI artist, it's all been said, mentioned, complained, pleaded about for years n years n years.
If you go through that post you will see the GUI Saga, PG was approached by Universal to make a movie about it.
It's just how it is, you just need to persevere with Biab or use RealBand.
I purchased RapidComposer some time back and gave up on it as it was too hard to work out, but I went back to it and learned a bit more and found out how good it is, my perseverance paid off.
