You could then use those files as the basis for creating a BIAB midi style. There's a video in the "Advanced" section at the following link that explains how to use Style Wizard.

Also, there are several Real Tracks styles that use Bouzouki, but these tend to not be so closely 'Greek Styles' Best Trevor Attached Files (Click to download or enlarge) (Only available when you are logged in) 2015-03-04_13-54-01.jpg (71.24 KB, 99 downloads) BIAB & RB2024 Win.(Audiophile), Sonar Platinum, Cakewalk by Bandlab, Izotope Prod.Bundle, Roland RD-1000, Synthogy Ivory, Kontakt, Focusrite 18i20, KetronSD2, NS40M Monitors, Pioneer Active Monitors, AKG K271 Studio H'phones

I'm not all that familiar with the style but I know it sounds similar to "Zorba the Greek" BiaB 2024 Reaper v7.15 Melodyne Essential 5.3

You need to adapt a waltz style (3/4) to get your 9/8, but with a triplet feel Greek Zeibekiko style, if I recall from my original music theory, is a mix of 1/16 and 1/8 beats that make up a 9/8 tempo, but with a triplet feel. It can be done. I hope the results are satisfactory for you.

This would be a good starting point.
