Well, I didn't ask the question because Band-in-a-Box works for me in every possible way. I thought I implied as much in my initial post where I listed multiple automation functions that my DAW of choice, Cakewalk, can playback at one time.

The original reason I asked the titled question is because I thought the responses would be along the line of what features DAW users miss in Band-in-a-Box and would like to have in Band-in-a-Box.

The responses so far are not what I expected. I thought the discussion would be about added functionality that would enhance Band-in-a-Box in a manner that DAW users would stay in Band-in-a-Box longer. Something like: "I can use my big money surface controller in my DAW but can't in Band-in-a-Box" or "My DAW has more automation functions than Band-in-a-Box".

Perhaps but I don't know. I'm thinking that in terms of shared, common DAW functions Band-in-a-Box can likely perform it. While every DAW shares some common functionality each DAW also has strengths that make it unique from other DAWs. I wouldn't want the discussion to veer into a discussion of specific DAW strengths while overlooking some common function most DAWs share while Band-in-a-Box does not.
