"Band-in-a-Box is bad at generating professional guitar solos"

Nope. I'm not talking about notation, I'm talking about the quality of a generated guitar solo.
You can sit there for an hour to partial regen, the result is still not guranteed. Try it yourself.
I'm not talking about humanization here. RealTracks are already humanized. I'm talking about musicality and quality.
Why don't you give yourself less than an hour, generate an easy 16 bar solo, and send me the mixed MP
Go with key of C, 65 bpm, even feel, use a typical pop melodic chord progression:

F-G-Em-Am-Dm-G-C-C7
F-G-Em-Am-Dm-G-C-C

Whatever RealTrack you choose, partial regen however you want, get it done in an hour or less.
If you can get a decent enough electric guitar solo in your mp3, then you can forget about Guitar Pr and string note input all the nonsense.

Hey MusicVillain,

OK, I generated the solo that you requested, with your exact specs, chord progression, tempo and feel.... and you can listen to it here ...

I came up with this demo in two minutes, and there is absolutely no editing done, as this is the first take generation by BiaB. The two minutes includes choosing the style _CALM3.sty and selecting a RealTracks soloist "1540 Guitar, Electric, Soloist PopBelieve Ev16 065"

Just pressed play. The soloist sounds fine to me, actually sounds great. So I don't follow your comments about "Band-in-a-Box is bad at generating professional guitar solos"
