Acid Pro 2.0 and VV

Hi everybody,
I've got a new client that wants to create demos as a
vocalist. Problem is, she has no arrangements or musicians
to play them. I want to use acid and vv to create her
music. I'm not sure how to this (no acid experience), and
any help would be appreciated. I think it would go
something like this:
1. Using loops in acid create a rhythm section
2. generate a wave file in acid and import it into VV
3. use the wave file as a rhythm track and add on any vocals
or instruments in VV

Is there a better way to do this?
Can I generate actual chord changes in acid that would
reflect the song structure? or is it strictly for rhythmic
structure.
Any help greatly appreciated!!

Hi George,
I've just completed this with some great results, but a couple of
gotchas. ACID will let you do chord changes and tempo changes. It's
very useful for that but not for professional quality mixing/editing
which Vegas is great for. Feel free to e-mail with questions.
