That said, I can easily see how issues could arise synching the lyrics with the rhythm, especially when the emphases don't match. Just asking, really.
(I might think the astute BIAB user would also be proficeint in drum machine.)



Hi Ed,
FYI
There has been a number of times BobH and I have been recorded live. That means two guitars and singer(s) going into one track. We do this just for fun but sometimes it really sounds good so I will add a drum track, a bass track, and maybe some other tracks. Since these are recorded without a click track I do all of that work in my DAW, usually playing live with my bass and MIDI controllers. The drums are either MIDI drum loops (BiaB drums or other companies) modified to match the tempo changes or inputted via drum pads.

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