I also upgraded to 7. I like it a lot. Things seem to be snappier in response and especially in the initial scan/load. The transition was seamless.

I admit I haven’t done anything complex yet but I wouldn’t even know it changed other than the new stems feature. That’s a compliment, not a criticism since I expect to find and use the new features and haven’t read any feedback of serious problems.

Mario, thanks for the tip to check tempo detection. I use Song Master Pro for that now. This is one serious weakness remaining in BIAB (but not RealBand): non-integer tempo handling.

The stem separation has I think only four tracks (have to check later) but it produces a bass track that’s actually better quality audio than Song Master Pro does. From comments I’ve read, this is not just another Spleeter clone.
