Hi all - hope someone can answer a couple of queries.

I dabbled with BIAB when I first got it about 9 months ago, but didnt make much progress. Its obvious BIAB is musically excellent, but I find the interface very unintuitive and dont have too much time spare.

Anyhow, I'm having another go, and downloaded some new Real Tracks - 127 Jazz Funk, that being my "thing"

I can see the little fellows in there, cos when I go to the Realtracks icon they are listed - but I cant persuade them to come out to play.

TBH, I simply dont get the relationship between Styles, Midi styles, Real styles, Songs, Tracks, and Real Tracks. What I need is probably an overview of how to use the whole product - but the help pages dive into so much detail without giving the real basics. If you grown up with the product since its inception I guess its obvious, but for a newbie its too much.

So far have figured out I can load a style, and then set the chords of my choosing. Or, when loading the style, I can load a demo song, which gives some preset chord changes - and subsequently I can alter these.

But I dont understand which real tracks these styles are using. When highlighting one style for example, the right hand info window shows: RT404: Sax, Tenor, HipHop Rock Sw 100, Jack Stafford. Is this Real Track 404? I only have RTs up to 127, so this doesnt make sense.

I assumed the style would determine the Tracks/Realtracks. So I tried loading a style, with demo song, and then going to Styles menu to edit this style. But this only seems to alter the pattern of the music, not the indivual tracks.

So I tried adding Realtracks via Realtracks picker dialogue box. But the tracks dont seem to generate. I tried the help menu - lots of returns when i search on Realtracks picker - but none which cut to the chase.

It doesnt help that the Real track picker dialogue header says "add Real Tracks to Track". Presumably this means
add Real Tracks (as opposed to Midi tracks) to Track in the mixing sense of track.

So I guess my questions are:
1 Is there a simple guide to explain how to use BIAB, especially a general guide on how to use styles/tracks etc?
2 Does the style determine the Midi or Real tracks used, and if so can I modify or create a new a style?
2 Specifically, how do I use the realtracks which I've just downloaded?

I'd be very grateful for any help!
cheers
Tom
