I have a MIDI tune that I pulled into BiaB. I asked for a new arrangement and it did so. I like the tune and the arrangements for each of the instruments. Now I want to take exact notation for the MIDI vibes and I want to convert this to a RealTrack (same arrangement, same notation but different source). Can do?




You just described the common MIDI Sampler.

RealTracks don't work that way. RealTracks are samples of whole phrases rather than one-note-at-a-time. That's what makes 'em sound so "real".

Use of a good sounding MIDI synth/sampler often does better, though.

Vibes, the common MIDI sampler sounds just about identical to the real thing anyway. Not a hard thing for the MIDI standard to implement. Changing MIDI Vibes patch to other instruments that have a hard attack, such as Pianos, can work sometimes. Changing to horns can sometimes be problematic, but again, use of a better MIDi synth/sampler will often allow for us to get away with such. Check out the Ketron SD2 Orchestral Wizard.
