Seems to me like they’re on it, and knowing Toontrack will come with an update out of the blue which will make everything right in this world again. 🙂
Cant wait till EZkeys develops into something i would gladly fork out my hard earned ca$h for.

I hear ya, a BiaB alternative (and my that i mean a real alternative) by Toontrack would be heaven on earth. Well musicproductionly speaking then….. 🙂

Never mind above post, its been cleared up.

@Tombuur; its totally clear now, and at first i couldnt uderstand why Toontrack would leave such an opportunity untaken by not including the features you mentioned. But Daves post clarifies that its not as simple as i may think.

Funny, i just recorded an entire album using mostly BiaB Realtracks (and SD) to accompany my guitarplaying and singing. Ofcourse the Realtracks are limited so if you know them well you may spot them, but overall i think it sounds pretty natural.

Thanks Dave,

but i still dont get it (maybe i should get the demo but im too lazy :)) If its not like BiaB then what exactly does it do? It seems to me like it generates a random song? Which u can change but the interface makes it a total drag to do so?

Id like to ask you to read this thread i started: http://www.toontrack.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=125086
Maybe im wrong, but it seems you have a different perception of EZKeys than the poster that replied to me. Id like to hear your thoughts on this.

Like i said, i use Band-in-a-Box as a tool to ,for instance, add a mandolin to a song i wrote. I have this progression say C-F-G, type it in BiaB and the mando track will be played. The soundfile i drag into Logic and i incorporate into my already recorded tracks.
Would you say i could use EZKeys in this way for pianoparts? Or would you agree with the poster that said its a little complicated?

Cheers

Yeah,

BiaB could so use some good competition, Toontrack is the company that can be that imo.
As soon i wil get word of the changes you suggested and the intention to expand to other instruments im gonna be a happy customer. Until then ill have to stick with BiaB.

Thanks for the heads up, that was precisely what i was thinking. Now that you have clarified this i can save myself 139 Euros. I was indeed hoping it was a very good BiaB-replacement for piano, and hoping they would expand with different instruments. I would definitely have bought it in that case. Now that it seems to me that the interface is not intended in the way i use BiaB i will be saving the money to get BiaB 2012. Unless Toontrack changes EZKeys to work like you described and is planning on adding other instruments i have no use for it. Again thanks.
