You certainly play well enough to hang with those guys. Good stuff!

The economics of producing your own albums with the level of studio musicians you are talking about most likely never was economically advisable.

I admire Matt for doing this while the opportunity was there.
/"economically advisable" may not have been a criteria at the time <grin>

He may have just did something he always wanted to do, and the value to him was worth it, I'll let Matt comment on that.
We enjoy the benefits of the experiment without all the cost.

What I always thought would be fun would be to see how the BiaB file sounded compared to the final product. Not for performance or sound quality comparison, but to discover what the live musicians had to work with and how they interpreted it... and how much it may have affected/helped.
Matt may choose to comment on this too.

//I know, I'm weird like that; looking at things from a different view than most.

Did the performers ever 'hear' the BiaB file?
If so, where any RTs or RDs involved?
Did they just see the notation generated?
etc.
