Somehow I wasnt referrring to "infinite" amount of phrasing variations

Maybe I just dont know how MIDI works.

From a user viewpoint, here's what I had in mind as what I have seen in Guitar Pro:
1. The user inputs the tab arrangement. This is not infinite. There are only a limited number of tab positions. For example in Fret 1, there are only 12 positions (6 open, and 6 closed). For Fret 2, again 6 positions, for Fret 2 until Fret 12 for example (12 x 12 = 144 positions)

2. Whatever the combination is inputted by the user, BIAB does not care. All it does is play the certain tab (e.g. Fret 5, 3rd string, closed) position, singly ONE by ONE.

3. The different b/n Guitar Pro and BIAB is that BIAB can use a real guitar sound (acoustic, for example) and that it can do the synch with other tracks. I was tempted to generated from Guitar Pro from the latter can be recorded only from the Sound Card, and not from the VSTi, and also synching Guitar Pro track with BIAB tracks in a sequencer like Audition or Sonar become a time consuming play or accuracy in positioning the track.

4. Can BIAB assign codes to specific guitar tabs (NOTE by NOTE) and generate it?

That would make BIAB the ultimate music software... because there thousands of Eric Clapton and Eric Burdon and Eric Carmen guitar tabs out there...

The closest you could get to this is using something like Bandstand or Garritan.

In order for RealTracks to play written melodies, there would have to be an infinite amount of phrase variations recorded so Band-in-a-Box could find and assemble an arrangement seemlessly.

If each note was sampled individually, then it wouldn't sound like a RealTrack (it would sound more like Bandstand).
