Hi Andy,

Over the years of using this marvelous program, I have found that it is virtually impossible to sort Styles and RealTracks by merely reading the category names and descriptions.

There have been many times where I find the "perfect" style or Realtrack for a particular songfile from listed genres, styles, feel, etc. that would seem to not be apropos for the one at hand.

I tend to think of it as the styles being able to "crossover" from whatever their listed genre may be, to one of the other genres.

For example, there are many of the Country RealTracks that can be inserted into Jazz, Pop, or Rock songs with very good results. And the end result does not sound, "country". That's only one example.

Having all styles available for Audition from within the Stylepicker, then, is my recommended way to go here.

The cost of USB external hard drive for storage of Realtracks and Realdrums has never been lower than it is today, and we can install "just" BB's main program on the C: drive along with the necessary fonts, plugins, MIDI synths, etc. with a relatively small footprint, pointing BB's use of the RealTracks and Realdrums to that outrigger USB storage.

It works a treat and won't keep you from using all available resources in your work.
