Please forgive my ignorance, jazzmammal.
GuitarHacker, your remarks concern one of the areas, or territories, of interest to this discussion, directly or indirectly, which is hip hop and rap. The program considered one of the genre leaders was Sony Acid Studio, with its vast selection of rhythmic loops. Those loops could be laid up on a time line, with all that implies, to be continued. The vocalist, or poet, or a little of both, was free to chime in with great success. It didn't seem to matter the backings all sounded about alike, and had the mechanical feel of artificial intelligence about them.
One of the unspoken questions to BiaB, "How do you guys manage to avoid the "mechanical" sound so often found in computer generated?" I know, don't ask, don't tell.
