Robertleo, welcome to the forum and BIAB. I also just read and responded to your other post. Inferring between the two posts to what you are attempting to do, I suggest you try an alternate method to 'building' your own style. Regardless of the version you purchased, many styles come with BIAB.

You can use the 2018 StylePicker to do a search for a song. Search for similar songs tempo, genre and groove of your song project. Locate a suitable style to work with from the list generated by the StylePicker search. It doesn't matter if you are dissatisfied with some or all of the loops, samples and audio, drums and midi instruments of the style you've chosen. If you have a song in mind that isn't in the BIAB database, Google the search parameter information for the particular song you have in mind for your reference song.

Your goal here is to structure your song form. Determine your structure similar to Intro, Verse, Verse, Pre Chorus, Chorus, Middle Eight, Chorus, Verse, Pre Chorus, Chorus, Chorus, Outro. Place whatever you want the structure of the song to be. Determine the key signature and tempo. Create a rough draft of a drum track, Bass track, the chord progression and create a melody.

From this point, you edit the song into its final version, adding instruments, bringing various instruments in and out. Adding percussions, sound effects, vocals, backing vocals, and any other creative ideas to build the song you hear in your mind. You can use loops and samples that come from BIAB or any other library or create your own.

At some point you may prefer to move your song over to a DAW to complete the process and make the workflow easier but it's not absolutely necessary.

Hope this helps.
