...people were skeptical about elevators at one point too.

RobH, Things change... I am talking about ideal world. If you read carefully where I fantasized about a single program, I said, I would prefer both programs to be modular, so the user can design interface as they see fit for their needs.

You would have your "lenses" as available in what you mentioned as: "far less complicated DAWs like cakewalk" Where you can have your RealBand just the way that is dear to you and by switching to another "lens" you will have your BIAB interface, I will have my hybrid lens, John will have his own set of lenses, Mary will have her own design, etc. But all would be working with single project in one program.

In any case, this is my fantasy, your vision is different. That's all smile

P.S. Mario, this is great:
