Now to run away and hide!!!

By that logic, isn't using BIAB also cheating?


Please elaborate, John?

For years, I just used BiaB as a very large set of backing tracks. So it depends on what you're using it for, seems to me.

I'm not saying it is cheating. But if using Melodist is cheating why not BIAB?
