Yes I know. I recently got BIAB 2014 and it has RealBand included. I'm just not sure what the difference is between the two. In other words, why would I use one over the other? Is each one used for different things?
I do not have any kind of an understanding of either one yet. They both look like they are very complicated. |

| I usually input the chord progression in BIAB, pick a style, and save the file. Then I open Real Band and load the file. Then you can record an instrument or vocals and mix each track independently just like some of the more expensive recording systems. I also record some songs on a KORG D888 8 track recorder and then transfer the tracks to the computer. I then load them in Real Band and edit and mix them there. Real Band has eq, reverb, compression, echo and several other things to work with. When finished you can render it down to a file you can burn to CD. |

| OK. Now that's starting to make sense. I can tell that it's a pretty in-depth program. Any advice on how the best way is to learn the programs? Thank for the input. |

Bill I will tell ya how I learned from nothing to where I am today, with recording programs.. Every program out there has a learning curve to it. But every program is like peeling back the skin of an onion. Peel a little, experiment a little, peel more back experiment more. Slowly open up the depths of the program. Do not dive to the bottom of the program right away, go slowly and learn and teach your self how to get there. Yes there are many on here that can help you also but experiment with it, you will learn so much in the process. There are good ways and easier ways to get to where ya want to go. Find out who is using the programs you want to use and get pointers from them to make your journey easier and faster. But peel back that onion, one of the best ways to learn.

| When you have either program open, you can move your pointer over the tools above the chord chart or tracks and a box will pop up briefly telling you what it does. Click on something and if it is what you want to do, use it, if not, X out and try something else. In a little while you will be surprised how much you can learn. |
