shame. seems to me to be force to sacrifice those extra backing parts just for ( imo gimmicky ) harmonys/solo/ seperate gtr parts is bad design.

Istn BIAB meant to be about generating cool backing parts ?

Im sure some scheme could be worked out, whereby one either chooses to be in PURE BACKING TRACK mode ( ie no harmony/solo stuff - just backing tracks ) or "NOVELTY" mode, where one gets
the current 5 tracks plus harmony etc etc.

Althugh theres always loops etc, the great thing about working with BIAB parts as much as possible is that one can easily make changes to the arrangement - add/change chords etc. Once one is force to freeze stuff and work solely inside the sequencer as one must, making global changes is a lot harder.

Personally i'd like to be able to specify loops and custom MIDI snippets in our arrangements - and then have them follow any structural changes we make to a song.
