Jamming with other musicians is the best. A musician developes his chops, he learns patterns and fills and segues that he can slip into at any moment during a jam. In TBD, chops become Players, short patterns that are made to repeat. Players can be drum tracks that use multiple drum instruments, or pitched melody tracks that use a single instrument or patch. You can record players live from a keyboard or drum machine, or you can build players by clicking on a Play Grid that divides each beat into divisions when sounds can be triggered.
Many players can be in memory at one time.
Groups of players can be played in the background while another player is edited. After developing a group of players, you can use the Jam Editor to combine your players into a jam. Your finished players and jams can be saved as Standard MIDI Files, and used in other MIDI programs. It's important to realize that TBD makes no sounds by itself. Like all MIDI programs, it only sends events into your MIDI network, and it's up to your MIDI equipment to respond with actual sounds.
