From my comments in the Wish List Forum where I was admonished to stop making so many "BIAB can do this" comments, it's probably the best advice for me to take in this thread too and only answer any questions directed to me how to or can BIAB do a task. It's a great discussion so far and I'll be following along. I'm glad you thought to post this thread.






Charlie,


I did not think you were "swiping" at anything. I just could not think of a better example than Audacity to show a tool that I use and love that seems to get bashed here a lot as having no place in this world. Even my lowly recorder (flute) has a place when I need it.

On the talking too much about Band-in-a-Box part, this drives me nuts (not you saying it) but the idea.

I personally have had it up to my digital eyeballs with that kind of stuff really.

This site is made possible by the flagship program here called Band-in-Box. It pays for this site. It pays for the tech team, it pays for RealBand. It funds these discussions. It pays for giving people a chance to run their mouths and say smart things and stupid things.

Unless you are obtuse (not you, just people in general), you will see on the homepage that this company sells Band-in-a-Box.

Therefore, unless you have been hit in the head with a hammer, you might guess that this site is primarily meant for, hmmm, let me see, people who are interested in learning how to use Band-in-a-Box--alone, and in their chosen recording environment.

Nowhere do I see Peter Gannon saying he built this site to help people make a better computer selection on Tiger Direct, or decide on which audio interface deal is better over at Sweetwater.

Nor does it appear the owner built this site to explain everything you can do with Fruity Loops and Reaper. Although, you are free to do so if that is what floats your boat. But just remember, your magical musings on Reaper were just funded by...Band-in-a-Box.

Admittedly, the love fest created by generating BIAB tracks for use in every DAW on the planet is the core attraction. Certainly.

But yes, it does indeed seem that the major theme running across the dark blue banner above is, let me remember, on yeah, Band-in-a-Box.

Therefore, unless I am trippin', I would say you should feel free to post as many "how to use more tricks in BIAB" posts as you can.

Because I think, and I could be wrong, that if folks did not buy Band-in-a-Box this site would go away and you would be be all alone on Twitter.

Crazy talk, I know, Charlie. Crazy talk for sure.
