I agree it will be helpful and nice for as many users and forum members to submit suggestions. I'm sure everyone reading these threads have thoughts on what changes they would like to see to the Band-in-a-Box graphic interface.

However I will point out that jump-on-the-bandwagon support for some ideas seem to be better acknowledged than dissenting views or the start of a discussion seeking clarification about how an idea will work in certain situations such as a middle chorus.

A lot of good ideas and especially mock-ups have been presented. But it seems as though most of the ideas are to make Band-in-a-Box more closely resemble a DAW. Less thought is given to Band-in-a-Box features that support it's strengths of song arrangement and backing track creation.

I believe RustySpoon# said it best, "Unlike DAWs BIAB main task is arrangement. You have to be able to quickly try, change, flip items."
