Hello Everyone and Happy New Year!
I use Band-in-a-Box® for Windows
Version 2017 (471).

I am trying to create a blues lick library using the melodist generator (Shift F5)

I am running into a few problems that I am hoping someone can help me out with:

1. Can anyone suggest a melodist that sounds like accoustic blues from the 1930´s (Delta like Son House or Robert Johnson) OR a style that would match any of the Chess Label artists from Chicago in the 1950´s and 1960´s (Muddy Waters, Holing Wolf, etc....)? I used the search option in the melodist dialog box, but there are no blues styles found on the list of options.

2. For the backing track, I am using Bluesy.STY.Bluesy1 - Blues Shuffle BG style. This does indeed give me a cool backing track that has a shuffle feel, but when I select a melodist, the melody doesn´t seem to adjust to a shuffle feel. It tends to give my quarter and eigth notes instead of a tripplet feel. Is there anyway to correct that?

Thanks very much for your help!
