RealTracks styles are generally based on pre-existing (or in some cases, newly written) MIDI data. You may notice that some of the RealTracks styles contain the name or a reference to the name of one of the MIDI styles.

The RealTracks Soloist entries are not based on Style files, but on Soloist rules, which are related to the MIDI Soloist rules in many ways, but not to the point of single note selection. Rather, in the case of RealTracks, I'm pretty sure those rules are applied as concerns phrase choices.

When you import into RealBand and then kill all of the RealTracks, the only thing left for generation are the underlying Patterns in the MIDI Style file, which are going to be different from the phrase choices found for RealTracks. Those phrase choices are chosen for their ability to fit over a chosen chord sequence while the Pattern Choices inside the MIDI style are static, with different choices made by weighting and other considerations. I assume that if a certain RealTrack contains loops that could be interchangeable that they too, are subjected to some sort of weighting routine.
