Yes, That's exactly the way I do It. I create a melody part in software, such as Music Time Deluxe, save it as a midi file, and import the melody (midi) into BB by using BB's import midi function. When you change the melody to guitar, the tabs show up in the guitar tableture and fret board. There, you can adjust the "note number" up and down the neck to get the position you want on the fretboard, that which is easiest to play. However, you can use BB alone using the music edit program, but I find the way I do it faster. By the way, I am a guitar player and have used this function for years, thanks to Peter and his crew.
