Guitarhacker.... You are refering to Band in a Box. I have it, but have never had much success with the loops. 

I assume that you first insert the chords that you want, and then select your instrument to play those chords, and then edit till you get the phrase you want.

I would appreciate if you could you explain your process in a little more detail.

Cheers

It's the dark side of the force... It is enticing? But it is evil...


Especially for a musician as talented as Hacker? And with as many contacts? He'll tell you it's just a tool?

Well I've been called a tool too? It may have been in a different context, but "whatever." 

My "personal" belief is that talented musicians, should represent their art, and if needed use other talented musicians? With that said, Mr. Hacker does produce some excellent results using "the dark side of the force..."


But it's still the dark side "IMO."

yes, from the PGmusic Real Band tracks.  Someone once commented that he could "hear the rosin on the bow" of the fiddle.

Thanks Scotty.... I thought the same thing about guitar samples for acoustic..... my early attempts to record a nice acoustic were disastrous.... the samples sounded OK but they were way too easy to spot from a mile away...... A better mic, a new Taylor, and new strings goes a long way toward capturing decent acoustic.

Herb,
 
Great song and production.   I like how you integrate BIAB into your songs.   I have used it a few times and know that it isn't as easy as just plugging in chords and generating parts, you have to know what you are doing.  You definitely know what you're doing.   Nice work.  Sounds amazing and great message......
