Hey Leovigild
Everything you save in the stylemaker’s piano or guitar has to be C7. For most chords, biab translates it just fine,
But once you want certain chords with #11 or the 13b9 Bob refers to, biab can’t handle it properly.
The way I go about it is
limiting the color tones, like 9ths, 13ths in the styles (which is sad, but ...)
using slash chords (lydian over maj 7th in the bass for phrygian)
Trying to hear the sounds in my head and playing over them, rather than relying on biab to play them correctly.
Bob is very accurate in his analysis. Biab handles 7th chords. And the rest is often inaccurate. As a non jazz player, Bob nails it. Upper structures or triads are often the way to go on guitar. Don’t play more than 4 notes in a chord.
That being said, Oliver Gannon has a jazz instruction soft here on PG music, about playing jazz chords. It’s very intricate and influenced by Ed Bickert. And he plays a lot of very dense and wonderful 5 note chords on his guitar.
Playing that behind a soloist would be limiting, but for chord soloing, a great soft. Essential jazz guitar vol 1 and 2: high and low voicings.
So, Oliver Gannon and a lot of pg musicians (check the modern jazz piano soft, it’s great) can play intricate chords, but the algorithm can’t turn them into styles.
Too bad, cause it would be great for learning.
Biab, Kontakt, Sampletank and lots of nice libraries, from Fluffy audio to Abbey Road drums.
