Using consolidated wav files it very limiting but with the section data you can extend any section like in a soloist to blend one riff into the next without the gaps as each section contains the whole source file as it's using non destructive editing. Why create wav files of the same files you already have in your RealTracks folder ?
These things you will only see by actually trying, I think that is the main fear users have is fear of the unknown and they would rather stay safe with what they know and have been accustom to doing for so long even if it's a long winded way. Look at the track view now in Biab it allows direct section data editing though it is very basic and limited it does allow this though how many have even tried this. It's like cow paths they never venture of the same path, they are well worn.
The day the Plugin was first released it served no purpose at all as it was quicker just to drag tracks from Biab into your DAW.

How do you do things on your Mac without RealBand ?


Now I showed this direct play arranger using Reaper and Biab track data long before Ketron released it, I asked PG to act on this as there would be a keyboard arranger coming out with Real Tracks, but Ketron acted but not PG, many here said it would not work without even trying it, again fear of the unknown, stay safe with what we know, a well worn path. When I was away last year for a long time DeconBlue09 was asking in the Plugin forum about the Reaper scripts but no one at all could help him.
