Band-in-a-Box Software

Hi Guys, Brother in law on lead and me on Bass and nobody to play the other instruments. We get guys from time-to-time but they never stick it out or want to practise-a-plenty. Has anyone used Band-in-a-Box to create backtrack music that one can play to? Conversely, what can we use to easily make backtracks to play with when we do not have the other instruments around? We would like to add piano/rhythm guitar/drums, etc. Regards ........ BassBarry

i recently purchased a pod studio kb37. the entry-level pod studio device is the ux-1 (1 guitar and 1 mic input - both 1/8th inch jacks), comes bundled with "Ableton® Live Lite Line 6 Studio Edition 8-track recording software and RiffWorks™ T4 recording software for instant pro recording and idea capture right out of the box." (straight from http://line6.com/podstudioux1/.) i had the predecessor to the ux1, and it worked abfab for me, only reason i upgraded was for the integrated keyboard and more inputs. the pod studio devices work ferpeckly well with reaper (so far). not sure about pricing though...

good luck!

Would you care to elaborate a bit on what these different applications do? I udnerstand that Ableton Live is a sort of DAW but with a slightly different approach which facilitates live editing more than the likes of Cubase, Cakewalk or REAPER. What exactly does RiffWorks T4 do?
