Why are you scared of RB? What's up with that? I use it ALL THE TIME especially the selective generation part. It has 48 freaking tracks! You don't even need to mess with an already generated track by highlighting certain bars to change, just arm a new track and use that.

Say you want to wind up with 7 instruments. You can start with one Biab style for all 7 if you want but with RB you can have a different style for each track along with different chords for each track plus different part markers. RB is a DAW you have full control over everything!

You want to test an and experiment? You can set up 5 different tracks for each instrument each with it's own chord grid and style. Midi or audio. Different synths for the midi tracks, different RT's for the audio tracks. For your 7 instrument song you are STILL only using 35 of the 48 available tracks! Do you see the possibilities here? AND, this is using each track to individually test each instrument. You can break each track down into groups of bars and separately generate those sections. How many choices would have then? 35 tracks broken up into say 8 bar sections? Are you kidding me? You could spend months auditioning and mixing all those combinations of styles, chords, drum tracks, fills, all using midi and audio.

RB is not perfect but it is NOT some useless POS program that crashes all the time! Anything can be improved including RB but because of all the criticism it looks like all focus is on the plugin. OK fine. It can't replace RB yet but it's getting there but for now RB is pretty much solving all your concerns.

I just don't get all the disdain for RB. It's fantastic imho.
