What I am still confused about, the topic "DAW Features In BiaB..." what exactly we are talking about? To have civilized discussion please give specific DAW features, functions of which are not present in BIAB that are being offered, and what exactly you don't like about these newly proposed features. Details.

You are correct RustySpoon#. Those are the questions that need to be discussed outside the threads Andrew posted soliciting suggestions. What DAW features do you WANT to see in Band-in-a-Box? What DAW features do you think NEED to be in Band-in-a-Box? There are multiple threads to list specific DAW features. This is a thread where you can advocate for those features, others can advocate against and discuss alternatives.

For example, in +++ THIS +++ I suggested 4 changes to the existing Audio Mixer. This prompted a discussion about the mixer. I'm suggesting discussing ideas in this thread with a goal of meeting Andrews direction.

Also, Simon said in +++ THIS +++ post, "UI, UX, and workflow are a big focus for us right now. We're going to work on both looks and interface functionality with a focus on workflow."

We can stretch to meet Simon's focus on workflow but, as we do we need to define what user workflow we're aiming at. There is singer songwriter, audio producer, educator, hardware DAW user, create backing tracks. I'm sure I've overlooked some so add to the what workflow are we talking about list.

Band-in-a-Box currently supports JAW scripts for the blind. JustAnOldMuso reminds us that the graphic interface needs to work for those that have vision issues.

I hope that addresses your questions.
