Om, tech fails and becomes obsolete, music changes. As long as there's music, there's a place for BIAB. The Airbus a380 was the largest passenger plane in the world and was obsolete and discontinued in nine years. Radio play of Adult Contemporary, classic rock, country and oldies all attest to the lack of obsoleteness of music genres.

Regarding the diversity of Amazon and Walmart, The diversity of BIAB is it doesn't make only one genre of music, only have one RealTrack, one style, one mixer track. The same as Amazon and Walmart, BIAB has lots of products. Its product is thousands of Styles, hundreds of genres, thousands of instruments, thousands of midi styles and instruments consisting of midi, SuperMidi, Sforzando, KV331 Synth, Synthfont, midi notation, midi piano roll, and Playable RealTracks and many more. There's DAWs that don't have the ability to read chords, analyze audio like the Audio Chord Wizard, and none can generate real instruments by real musicians without actually having real musicians playing real instruments.

BIAB has an amazing array of DAW features that are built into the main algorithm. BIAB uses WAV Instructions to automatically and professionally do Fade-in, Fade-out, crossfades, soloist intro's and outro's, it's programmed to mute, return to normal, fade per bar, louder per bar, change by user directed amount. The Audio Editor does all of the most common edits necessary to edit a track.

The Mixer can have up to 264 instruments in a single SGU file. Each with individual pan and volume settings. BIAB has two Audio Edit Tools, BIAB has included effects. The BIAB Mixer functions as a robust, digital multitrack recorder and player.

There's a post here in the Windows Forum where I detailed the steps to create a four style MultiStyle backing track with a medley of four soloists that change with each change of style. You should look at that post, try your own demonstration and decide the next time you encounter a new user, if you think they'll find your MultiStyle demonstration more impressive than a vertical curser or the Live Tracks view.

A lack of DAW features isn't a limitation of BIAB. Every demo, tutorial, and lesson produced by PG Music is finished in BIAB as an SGU type file. Not as a DAW product. PG Music uses DAWs for the things DAW do better, faster and more conveniently but bring those tracks into BIAB not BIAB out to DAW. Check out the PG Music demo with vocals and you'll see they are pro grade.

It makes sense to create and edit tracks in a DAW and import them into BIAB where you have 100% of BIAB's features, tools, instruments, mixer, effects, and Chord Chart to generate and polish your song.
