Better designed user interface, you won't need a manual. It has many built-in styles, which sound perfect for practicing solos. Plus, it exports to midi so you can load your jam track into a DAW and start recording your song. ChordPulse doesn't do automatic solos, but who really uses that?

it's cheap. incredibly easy to use, it's very comprehensive in its chord choices and in many styles that sound great. Also, having a built-in mixer for separate tracks, such as bass drums, helps me a lot. I also use it to create chord progressions that you can export to text and MIDI that I then import into my recording software.
