It's funny, I woke up this morning with a similar question and I'm trying to do the same thing but not as heavy. I heard some of your explanations of Band in a Box before Chris but still wasn't sure if how it would work. I've been putting together tracks with sonar and it's taking to much time. I think I'm going out this weekend and buying B in a box and start work with it.

Thanks to both of you Damiond and Chris.

NO, I haven't considered that. How would it help me?

It generates, automatically, bass, drums, piano, guitar and strings, or a similar grouping of instruments depending on the style of music.
1. Type in chords to song.
2. Pick a style like rock, jazz, country etc.
3. Press play and your backing track is generated.

Now, to get really professional results, you'll want to save that as a midi file and load it into your sequencer of choice for fine tuning. But a lot of the building blocks will be there already, automatically generated by Band-in-a-Box.
