I tried different .ST2 as knowledge base and also many different settings in the solist editor, but never get such simple solos. Almost all generated solis nearly always consist of an eighth note and a quarter note in a row per beat. This is with Band in a Box 2018.


I think I might have exaggerated - maybe not "mostly" - but a lot of
quarter notes. And honestly - those were not very good solos - lotsa
"ketchup over brownies" moments (to borrow from Greg Fishman) like eh
playing Bb on the beat over E7/B (or B over E7/H if you are in Germany).
Stuff that no improviser - even complete beginner would do. I think that
setting 1 note per beat might over-constrain the algorithm. Doing 2 notes
per beat sound a bit smoother. The whole process is tad frustrating - I am
very much NOT a tweaker - no guitar pedals (with small exceptions with more
than three knobs. I like playing music not twisting knobs.
