As a musician I don’t see these tools as competing with what I do but enabling me to do so much more. It takes a lot of time and money to create a professional recording for my songs and drum machines and synths just don’t work for Americana. These tools offer the possibility of backing tracks that sound like Willie Nelson’s band from the 70s but at a fraction of the time and effort. I can’t wait until they get to the point where they’re more composable or auto-accompany given an acoustic guitar and vocal input.
