Band-in-a-Box.
I know there've been many threads on and off of the subject but this one is different. I'm now looking at buying Band-in-a-Box and would like some feedback on the subject.
I need something to help me out with TAB, backing tracks, recording and playback. I'm currently reading all of the help files and tutorials on their site and intend downloading the demo prior to coughing up. My feeling is however that I'll probably leran more about whether or not I should buy it from blokes who've been there and done that.
Any info and suggestions welcome; PLEASE!!!

Hi DE SOuth
I have Band-in-the Box and it probably works wonders.
I needed something that was simple, required little reading of a manual, something that I could create tabs, read other artists tabs (there are thousands of tab-tunes you can learn from, scales, exercises, riffs, blues, jazz, rock, whatever.
I use Guitar Pro 5. check this one out before spending a fair bit of money.
GRP5 is very user friendly.
Regards
John

Hey DE,
Did you see this thread that was posted here just a couple of days ago? - BAND IN A BOX help - might be of some help.
Cheers

Have a look at Jammer before you decide.

Thanks guys. I will certainly look at Jammer too. My feeling is that I need to be on top of the software before deciding, so I've downloaded the demo BIAB and am learning...
Also cam across THIS if anyone else is looking.

Thanks for that link, DE. I've subscribed so that when I pluck up courage to attack BIAB again, there'll be somewhere I can turn to to prevent madness! J/k - I'm sure it isn't all that difficult to grasp once you put your mind to it

The GfB&B Guitar Slide Rule
Download the PDF of the 'Guitar Chord Slide Rule', print it out, fold it together and you'll have at your disposal a very neat tool that will not only show you all the positions for the main flavors of chords, but will also teach you a very important lesson about how the guitar works... It consists of a folded sleeve and six double sided inserts, instructions for cutting it out and folding it together are included with the PDF ... it's very simple to do, and if you botch it, you can simply print it out again!
