#BAND IN A BOX FOR IPAD PRO#

I guess the power of weed knows no said:Īnd now you can export the MIDI files into GarageBand to get rid of the rather horrible on-board sounds.Īnd 'now'? iReal Pro has had MIDI export for several years, not just now Hip hop dude was somehow convinced he could used HarmoGnome as a beat making tool or even a DAW. I'm reminded of a conversation I had with this aspiring hip hop producer guy about HarmoGnome, another app created for practice, not making records - created in fact by a violin player for his personal practice. BIAB admittedly simulates this more effectively than iReal Pro, partly by using samples of real musicians, but it's still going to sound like a simulation rather than the real thing.

Jazz is all about the ongoing conversation between the drummer, bassist, etc. This is a genre where you want to use real instruments and players as much as possible, it's not like techno. That's because it's designed as a practice tool for instrumentalists, not for making records.

to the best of my knowledge no one ever has as of yet. I can’t see using BITB on an actual record though. (but of course there are backing tracks available for less said:

#BAND IN A BOX FOR IPAD SOFTWARE#

(you may look for it on eBay, it's frequently sold for about half the price or less - depends on release date, 2 years back is ok, 5 is not so cool)īiaB is pretty unique, I don't no any other software with comparable features. If it's your cup of tea, then the UltraPack (shipped on a harddisk) is what you want. The entry version of BiaB is just that, an entry to check the software out. In the Jazz or Country domain it's almost a no-brainer, but PG Music opened up to modern styles a lot in recent years. It's only worth the effort if you consider sounds and styles fitting your ideas. The Realtrack/Drum approach is very close to recording real people playing - it's close to impossible to achieve the same with traditional sample libraries, let alone within the same amount of time.īiaB in fact looks like a piece of shite on screen - and it definitely has a learning curve. With any midi soundgenerator/sampler the software can still apply all it's (midi) style 'knowledge' on any midi file. You can create own 'style descriptions' which includes to teach BiaB your personal musical style. The audio quality is flawless with 1:10 compression, the 'audiophile edition' is uncompressed. These tracks are live studio recordings (length up to 10 Minutes) and are indexed (with extreme detail) in a way that you can turn a Swing performance into Reggae, Hardrock or whatever with 1 single mouseclick.ĭuring repeated playback of the same track the programm slightly alters it's performance like a human player would, and keeps the style according to genre/artist. The answer you got was correct in regard to amount of cash, but there's a huge difference of BiaB soundsets (called Realtracks and Realdrums) in comparison to regular sample sets.
