MMgWjo, welcome to the forum!

Your computer can receive audio from the Digitech Trio through your computer's line in jack or external audio interface.

PG Music provided the styles and instrument patches to Digitech. Band-in-a-Box has styles and instrument patches similar to the ones used in the Trio plus many more of each.

From a jamming / practicing standpoint one way the Trio and Trio + excel over Band-in-a-Box is start up time. You have to wait for the computer to boot, Windows to load, Band-in-a-Box to open and a song to load before you can start to play. The hardware based Trio / Trio + starts providing audio almost instantly.
