dont get me wrong my fellow users.
RB has a LOT to commend it.

just little "niggles" that have bugged me over the years.
so what i do is, instead, in biab , heres my workflow.
1. i ruff out a basic song arrangement. save it.
2. THEN believe it or not !! i actually audition EVERY SINGLE INSTRUMENT RT and midi (takes a long time !) to see what little accidental "sound pictures" get genned.
i might save 50 bb files all with different instrumentation, but same basic original arrangement/chords ive entered.

i NEVER keep to the plain vanilla ways/methods.
cos my way i get pleasant accidents.
for example i'm doing a song right now (bit different for me) and used steppin out as the beginning BASE STYLE, BUT all the chords and instrumentation is diff.
ive saved about 30 audio traks so far from RT's. with a base stereo bed trak.

i import lots into rb and/or reaps for added experimentation.
add my vocs voila .
but i use reaps lots of times cos of automation // editing tricks and also the waveform redraws are BAM! INSTANT. its difficult to describe.

as i said i'm not knocking RB , ive used it a zillion times over the years. just "niggles".
ps another little trick i use is EVERY SINGLE RT HAS ITS OWN PAGE WITH COMMENTS in 3 ring binder.
so i can look up my favorite RT's comments.
ie id no of RT followed by comments. 2 columns.
when i updated to 2020 last year i went thru EVERY SINGLE RT and STYLE and MID IN DETAIL,
and documented in my master binder. thousands of entries.
ive developed tons of strategies over the years .

i'm sure ive used rb and biab in ways never intended lol.
and different from the normal user.
i do a lot of wacky songs and ideas.
been doing this awhile. lol
