Hi Pooch. A combo is not simply an audio file. It is a selection of individual instruments that can be midi, super midi, a combination of RealTracks and midi, a combination of RealTracks and supermidi, or all RealTracks. RealTracks are audio files. Regardless of what different combination instruments or midi/supermidi/RealTracks is - the combination of instruments is called a style.

Every style, regardless of its makeup, can be modified by replacing any instrument with any other instrument you choose. In other words, you do not have to replace a guitar with another guitar. You can choose any instrument. It doesn't even have to be a stringed instrument, it could be a piano, accordion, trumpet or Sax. You can create and save your own combo from scratch if you want to.

Knowing and understanding the concept of styles in BIAB will greatly enhance your benefits and fun. With BIAB, you can easily enter chords, select a tempo and time signature and choose from the thousands of available styles and have your song playing in 2-3 minutes with a complete band for backing tracks. You can easily replace instruments of a style with other instruments and make your own custom style for your song. Knowing the difference between even and swing styles is important as well as the difference between 8th notes and 16ths. But, you may find that an even 16th soloist guitar is perfect for your swing 8th song. The rules are not hard and fast.

You can spend a lot of time searching the hundreds of available instruments that may be midi, supermidi aor Real instruments to find the perfect instrument for your track. Knowing and understanding about the RealTrack Picker and Style Picker can help a lot in filtering your search down to a manageable level.
