Everyone here knows that I use MIDI almost exclusively in my original songs. I have never said that I hate RTs. In fact I have used a few in my songs and I use them almost exclusively in customers songs. I also use them in some of my covers. Since I can not post the songs I use with RTs you never get to hear how I use them.

My rule is simple, use what is best for you and for the song.

Ps - I think more people don't like MIDI based on the very inexpensive sound source that comes with MIDI (put those MIDI sounds against RTs and RTs wins by miles or kilometers for my foreign friends). They think that is how MIDI sounds, it is not. When the free ST 2.5 was added it did awake a number of users about better sounding MIDI sources however today there are much better sounding sources than that available. Plus now with jBridge you can add those better VSTis to BiaB and RB. It's a win win situation.

I just posted a selfie and all of the responses were get well soon!
