If RB is working for you, then technically there is no downside.
You can get the same quality recordings and end results in RB as you can in other DAWs .. it's basically a preference. Mainly from a comfortable workflow point of view.

You can do things in other DAWs that you can't do in RB .. and you can do things in RB that you can't do in the same other DAW.
If RB starts causing issues or limitations, worry about another DAW then, but until then keep making music. smile


I am a user of another DAW, i.e. Studio One Pro. I do use RealBand on occasion. BUT I have always said if you do not have a favorite DAW then by all means use RealBand. Even if you do have a favorite DAW there are things that RealBand can do that others and BiaB can not do. I learned that from rharv.

Thus I agree with him and start with RealBand.

A final note; the sound of the finished product has nothing to do with whatever DAW you are using. That sound depends on whatever sound sources and effects you are using.

Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.
It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
