3) Create a Chord File with tempo, time signature, key, and lyrics
4) Allows me to modify the style with BIAB
5) Create a backing track with lyrics (minus the instrument I play) and chords
6) Add a click track
7) Store file as MP3/WAV with metadata that has the full fields you would find for MP3 meta data

And do this all within one application, or with an easy workflow that let's the computer do the work, not me!

My goal is to go to a gig with my playlist of songs (on an iPAD or computer) that have been created, hopefully using BIAB (only) and sound like the original (except with my selected Styles), but the lead (melody or rhythms) played and sung by me.

I think a reasonable time to create this per song should be between 15 to 30 min max.

Please advise.

Thanks, DJLu


What you are proposing is possible, but not with audio files. Find a good MIDI version of the song(s) you want to do; there are many good free and ones for purchase out there. Bring them into your DAW, RB, or BiaB. Assign a MIDI sound source to each track. Note there are better sounds out there than in BiaB's GM. Some of the free Soundfonts (SF2) are better. Delete or mute the tracks that you want to do and save as an audio file. With everything you need on hand the total time would be around 15-30 minutes. I know as I have been there and done that. YMMV.

OK, a random thought;
Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

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