I was able to play the RT part through a Midi synth.




how do you do that RT=audio? did you convert the RT to Midi
i'm probably missing something

I suspect Rachael was referring to a RT that had a RealChart associated with it. If a RC exists, it is designated by "N" in the column labeled "chart" in the RT picker. From the help file associated with the RT section under Preferences:

"The RealCharts can be saved to MIDI files or with Band-in-a-Box songs (MGU).

RealCharts are optional and are selected in the RealTracks Settings dialog. Ctrl+click on the RealTracks button or click on [RealTracks] in the Preferences dialog.

þ "Show RealCharts notation from styles and songs" will show RealCharts that have been generated from styles or songs stored with RealTracks.

þ "Show RealCharts notation for Soloists" will show RealCharts that have been generated from the Select Soloist dialog.

þ "Save RealCharts in MIDI files" will save the RealChart to a MIDI track so you can analyze it in other programs.

þ "Save RealCharts in BB Songs (MGU)" will save the RealChart MIDI information to the MGU file."

IOW, with that third option enabled, we can save the data to a MIDI track. I've never done this, so am not sure how it is actually executed. I suspect simple drag 'N drop to a sequencer would be one way.

HTH -Ron

EDIT - Hmmm Drag N Drop doesn't seem to work for me. Using RB, the audio drags but not the midi. This seems to work: mute all tracks except the one with the RC. Under File, choose make a standard midi file and direct it to the clipboard. The data can then be pasted into a sequencer's midi track. Presumably, you could make a midi file this way from as many RC tracks as there are in the song. There may be more efficient ways, dunno.
