Maybe we are on different pages, but you keep saying you want to make things that sound like specific songs, and i was telling you that is easy to do that, but now you are talking about original songs tracks. You want a track to sound like a concept in your head If you want a specific sound you can either write it in midi, use audio loops, one shot it in audio, ask other musicians to collaborate, or let Biab come up with a piano track, or learn to play.

There are endless options inside BiaB, you can use the 1600 + styles to design a piano track, use the melody maker to make melody a line, sing the notes in and allow it to make a melody line, or harmony line, or make your own style with style maker. That way you can add the different instrument tracks styles together and "roll your own" style. Example of a walking bass with a compin piano, then change out the piano for a different type of piano track save the style under adifferent name and you have a new custom style.

As far as midi, not sounding real, that is not always true, a good midi writer can fool you, and using better samples will make a huge difference. Piano tracks are far easier to make with midi than say fiddle. I have heard midi piano that sounded very live. It takes work and effort, one needs to learn to "humanize" the midi by altering timing and velocity of the notes. I had a vocal Ohh and Ahh track on a midi song i worked on a couple nights back and it sounded fake and canned. With about 20 minutes work i had it sounding like real people, not perfect mind you but 200% better.
