for a starting point.


I'll share my method for finding styles and forgive me if you are already aware of this. I use this method a lot as a starting point to learn new covers with good success. I imported an original Platters performance version from youtube and ran it through the acw to create a chord chart and temp map. It came up with chord progression in Eb key at average tempo of 82bpm. Based on these parameters, the above style matches closely with very little editing needed. As Pat Marr Says, your mileage may vary.

Using Band in a Box rather than RB works better for me in most cases. Editing the chord chart and tempo seems easier to work with in BB. Begin by hitting play before you generate your style and only the imported .wav will play and you can easily listen and edit your chart and tempo to the existing song because BiaB requires you to choose a style before it will generate the tracks even if you have a chosen style listed. When I've finished with my chart, I open the style picker and the choose either the existing style again or search for another more appropriate style. I then vary between including the audio file playing or not according to what's needed to tweak my chart. Hope this helps and I've been clear and complete enough for you to follow.
