I have done the same . My results were actually better with the arranger and any multi track recording system. Seems to go quicker. It's great for getting those song idea ,projects down quickly while the creative juices are flowing. Then maybe use the computer daw system to tweak , enhance, my work but I hardly ever use it. I just record, store my song in a folder on my laptop,desktop, or MP3 player for use on stage . Pretty simple process that works for me.
