[following is generic ending for
dbut sequence descriptions]

do you have any favorite sequences
or sources to share?
do you ever try to improve on stuff you download?
my sequences are all rough drafts
i'd love to hear improved versions.

I use BIAB to create a rough draft which might
be refined later w/ a sequencer like Cakewalk
which can handle editing like pause & slow down.
usually I add extra choruses, omitting melody 
on every other chorus, for a 5-10 minute jam
which i'll accompany on mandolin.
this is a rough sequence created in an hour or two. 
typically w/ BIAB i first spend about 10 minutes
selecting style & voices, typing the chord prog,
setting part markers, looping, & ending points.
in another 5 or 10 minutes I can add a simple melody
& be ready to jam.

sometimes I record a bass line in the 1st chorus of 
melody track, copy it to all choruses, then overdub.
but often i'll just play a simple melody & rely
completely on BIAB's accomp.
BIAB will also generate harmonies if you want.
i usually don't.
channel 4 is the only channel set up for recording.
so if you mute/solo channel 4 you can hear 
the generated & live parts separately.
