> In BiaB, there are two methods of inserting yellow MIDI to a track. One way is to insert MIDI super track, then in the dialog box select a yellow MIDI, not a blue MIDI. The other way is the method of discussed in this thread, select custom MIDI style, then select a stem from that style.

There are two methods discussed for adding a Single MIDI track. One is “blue” (midi supertrack) and one is “yellow” (custom track from “old” midi style).

1. Midi supertracks have the advantage that the performance is based on input provided by a real musical artist.
2. The older MIDI a styles were based on algorithms simulating a real performance, but based on patterns and rules for adopting them to different chords.

If it was me, and I wanted to add a New Orleans pianist track, there wouldn’t be any thought - I’d go with #1 midi SuperTrack, and choose a Kevin McKendree New Orleans MIDI supertrack.
But if you were choosing something specific, you might find that we don’t have a midi supertrack for that, and an “old school” track from a midi style works.


Have Fun!
