BiaB is a unique composition tool that is not like any other program available. It uses artificial intelligence to compose music in a way that no other program can do.

RealBand is a little more generic. It belongs to a type of program called "Digital Audio Workstation," or DAW. It is analogous to a recording studio. There are a number of 'tracks,' each with its own instrument: piano, drums, bass, etc. There are a number of other programs that work this way.

Both programs can use Real Tracks.

It is possible to create a complete song without RT's. When you use them, its as if you called up some musicians to be on your song: Bob on piano, Tom on guitar, Mary on Bass. Each 'person' will play the chords you tell them to, in their own way. If you don't like what Bob did, take him out and get another piano player.

If you look closely at all the information on the RealTracks, you can see the musician's names. These are real people. They work for you now.
