My mom used to say to my brother and me, if we complained about something on the dinner table, " You want me to chew it for you?" Some things YOU need to do, and there are ways to do it. BiaB will sketch the basics for you, but if you want the signature drum roll from "in the air tonight" You either have to play it live, program it in midi, or sample it from the album. BiaB will never be a do everything for everyone program, there needs to be some participation from the user.

If you could push a button (that is mash to those of you south of the mason dixon line) and recreate a led Zep lead riff , what the heck would be the point, we would not need any talent at all. I struggle to make some riff on cover tunes sound real, but that is where i am always honing my skills.

Many of the features will grow and develop as time goes on. Still there must be a certain level of involvement on our part. Dive in at least it takes you far more than half the way there. Do a lot of research into things like midi programing, audio looping, cut and paste of audio one shots, all of these are options, get to know other musicians and some will colaborate with you. I did a nice version of Harrisons while my guitar gently weeps a couple years back, a lead guitarist i know played the lead riff and it was stellar.
