I am of the opinion that we can make our own real styles. Real styles are not like midi styles which involve coding. Real Styles are nothing more than; set the key, set the tempo and select a grouping of real tracks for the instruments.


Creating a style is more than simply choosing different realtracks -- creating a style means providing the data like the stylemaker requires for midi styles. To create a style you have to tell the "players" what to play, how to voice the chords we want. And then we need to be able to save that as a separate style which will work as we want it to whenever we choose it. I still don't see how to do that and nobody has provided any instructions.

If I start out with a blank style and then select realtracks for the different patches, I indeed get new sounds. However I can't save that as my own real style. And if I open up the StyleMaker, and save the current style under a new name, when I select that style it shows up with no instruments in the various tracks.

So again I ask, how does a user create their own real style?
