Thanks for the replies. I took your advice and searched for midi files and Bob Wills and Lefty Frizzell had about 10 out there at freemidi.org. They imported as midi into BB.
It's progress, but I don't know if it makes the process easier since the midi file is like an orchestral score with all the notes, like 20 notes, combined in the melody part. And 12 clefs in the lead sheet. And the embellishments mean I'll have to isolate the melody to line up they lyrics.
Maybe I can do that easier in Realband?
does this sound right?
