First of all, are you thinking that RealTracks will play the notes for each part from the MIDI file you imported? If so, that's not going to happen. RealTracks are pre-recorded riffs that work within the chord progression of the song.

That being said, as you have discovered, a MIDI file is loaded completely to the melody track. It does not split out bass/guitar/piano/drums to the drum tracks, because those tracks are all controlled by the selected style. If you did copy those parts to those tracks, they would just get overwritten by the style info the next time you regenerated the arrangement.

One thing a lot of folks do is to load a MIDI file, strip out everything but the melody (and maybe a counter-melody or some unique riff), but it all stays on the melody track (or you can move some of it to the soloist track). Then select a RealTracks style appropriate to the song. RealTracks will provide the backup, but the melody would still need to be played with MIDI sounds. You won't get RealTracks to play the melody for you.

That's how it works. Hope that helped.
