I'm kind of a newbie here, and hope this is not too obvious a question.

When I bought BB, I had the impression that every time I hit the play button, BB would generate a new version of a song with different performances on the various instruments.

But with MIDI tracks -- and it seems even more with Real tracks--I very often get identical tracks, no matter how often I click the play button.

I looked a little at the "build your own style" windows and it does seem to allow the style-maker to add several variations to each instrument. I know I could dig into this complex feature, but the reason I bought the software was to get interesting variations on instruments I can't play and have the program do some of the work.

In Real Tracks, are there ANY variations to the performances? Seems like there are a few in the MIDI stuff, but I haven't found any with RT, often, even when I put a new section in a tune

I'm debating on upgrading to 2011.5, but I am concerned I won't get that many useful tracks.

Am I missing something?

Thanks for any help.
