Thanks Mac. What you suggested is the last thing I tried, but no luck. I thought I struck gold when I first saw that "normalize midi volumes" under "Arrange". I was confident that would work, but when edited, saved, opened and replayed the song, starting at all instruments on 90, it would revert right back to the default volumes beginning at the bar where I did the style change. I tried several different volume levels with no success.

Again, my BIAB is the 2007 version, so I guess all my styles are midi based. I'm not familiar with Realtracks...at least I don't think I am... With my Roland keyboard doing the midi voices, the styles sound great. Many songs I use the Real Drums, if they have the right groove. I've got the midi channels set so that for some songs, the instrument voices come from the Roland and the Real Drums comes from BIAB off the computer. I wish I had more Real Drum files. It's an excellent blend.

The drums and percussion on my Roland are almost as convincing but I love the Real Drums. The acoustic piano on the Roland is one of the best I've heard from any synth, so the acoustic piano sounds amazing with BIAB.

Thanks again Mac.
