I have to tell you folks - I purchased this software 3 or 4 years ago. I RETURNED it promptly because I hated the product. Couldn't stand it. It didn't do what I wanted it to do. I complained about the MP3 thing not working and how I was instructed to use a third party convert - yada yada yada ...

Well - I'm here to admit - I was a complete idiot! AND I'm so sorry for being so arrogant to the PG Music folks - All they were trying to do was to help me - and I was settled on the fact this software was lousy and poorly written.

ALL because I didn't give the software enough of a chance.

I repurchased 2018 - and ALMOST reverted, well, I did, to being arrogant, because the so called issues I STILL had - but - ALL user errors! And mostly, because I didn't know what I was doing.

So - I'm SOLD now on this product after learning how to:

- Change a style in the middle of a song
- Change tempos on a specific bar
- Understand Rests Silence Holds, Shots, etc.
- Be able to insert a RealTrack anywhere in a song
- Understand that RealTracks require at least 4 bars when ending a song
- Control + T - THANKS Joseph!
- Upgrade the product from 516 to 520 - Thanks Joseph!

There's a lot more to learn - but - folks! I've made 3 backing tracks so far and they really turned out AWESOME!

So - If you're new to this product - Give it an honest chance before you decide to think about giving up on it.

Maybe there are QWIRKS - but, I'm guessing there are workarounds.
