Welcome aboard Charlie!

Just my thoughts . . .

#1. When I am previewing styles I do so without realtracks because the load time is a lot quicker with just midi.

#2. I insert the chords and tempo, often just a few bars.

#3. Select styles that common sense tells me might fit this song, and hit play.

#4. When I find one that fits to my satisfaction I label and save it, then go to the next repeating this process until I find the best match.

#5. After I have chosen the best style for the mix, I start auditioning realtracks and real drums using the same approach.

Later,
