But what you said about making it up manually, the way I did that was you generate up a lots of a RealTrack in RealBand then the part you like just highlight the section in the chord sheet then drag the track number out into the DAW.
I'm just used to finding workarounds as you could die waiting for PG to fix things, so if they don't get around to fixing it in a hurry you have an alternative, but if all else fails you can go to Jim himself http://www.realsax.com/
