This is a tough choice for me because the two choices don't offer much nuance.

In the way that I use BiaB I either don't notice the bugs/clunkiness/dated feel or if I do notice I can live with it since I get out of BiaB and into my DAW as soon as possible.

But on the other hand if the programmers could incorporate truly new and useful features then I think I'd be happy for years. [To be sure, I'm happy now.] I really don't need the "business as usual" with more pre-defined styles added onto the zillion styles we already have, many of which seem to be duplicates.

Two noteworthy new features for me would be:

a. an AI capability that can accept an audio file as input and create a BiaB "style" based on that audio file

b. the capability to craft or find a drum/percussion pattern similar to the EZDrummer capability

Forced to choose, my answer is 1 (but I don't need 50 new features or 212 more RealTracks)

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.
