You can't convert it. Accurate audio to MIDI conversion may happen one day, but it's bmnit really here yet.
That being said, some (not all) RealTracks have notation associated with them (you'll see an underline under the green track name in BIAB). You can use this RealChart as a basis for MIDI represention of the RealTrack. But it won't be exact (many were notated by hand after the fact), And you won't get the performance nuances (just the notes).
Lookup RealCharts in either the help system or in the pdf user manual for more info.

Real Charts?
Realcharts are MIDI representations of RealTracks. As John indicated they may or may not be identical to RTs but very close. Plus not all RTs have Realcharts associated with them, again as John indicated.
Now this is on the PC side of things. I do not know if the Mac side has this. To check I would load a bunch of RTs into songs then look for the underline.
Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer. It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

The piano/keys RealCharts as far as I know are recorded on the Yamaha Acoustic + Midi piano so are the actual playing. They need to use something like the Fishman Tripleplay to capture the guitar midi then we can have Real RealCharts and Guitar Midi SuperTracks with the actual bends and other articulation. There are midi pick ups for other instruments as well.
Just to chime in from the Mac perspective: Realcharts are absolutely featured on our end too (thank you Mario for not just presuming!). You enable this thing inside the "Realtrack Settings" dialogue. Make sure all of the applicable options there are checked and you should be good to go. Also, for that particular String Quartet example, your optimal choice should just be the equivalent String Quartet Supertrack, which already is all-Midi. Always a good idea to check first if your target Realtrack for this purpose has a corresponding Supertrack.
