I am not interested even if it is free. Cakewalk played that game with me and thousands of others. A tethered software that can be unplugged any time they wish to do so (even after mr.Meng promised "decades", at time when Gibson went belly up). No subs or tethered software for me please.

What PGM should do is make use of AI + their catalog to enhance and expand existing RTs, so they have more variation, different octaves, inversions, etc. Make User Tracks creating process in line with a second quarter of 21st century... again, perhaps making use of AI, so there are no "shortages" of genres and other qualities.
I'm not sure that there's much out there (other than Celemony's tools) that can disassemble and reassemble audio like this, but I haven't looked in a while. And besides, there's more than one way to solve this problem. Since pitch recognition is currently quite good, audio -> midi -> audio giving users direct access to notes is feasible in BiaB (assuming someone wanted that feature. It's there already a "Use Only Chord Tones" option that does this in BiaB?

A better search tool and "smart" connections (which BiaB sort of already has, due to the sampled progressions).

It seems there are a lot of ideas here that BiaB could use, at least in terms of the UI.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
