I just walked in from a gig with BIAB and read this thread. I’ve been playing live with BIAB for years, straight from a laptop through the mixer/PA, along with guitar and vocals. Never had a major problem. Even though I often use mixed-down wav files from a tablet, the BIAB files work well, when other musicians sit-in and I can add extra choruses for soloing. Plus, I have many folders of tunes save, such as, country, pop, jazz standards, rock, waltzes, Broadway/show tunes, movie themes, and such. I can access any of these rather quickly. I average about 3 gigs a week on the “retirees” circuit.
