This could also be accomplished with volume automation if you have a latter version of BIAB.

It would also be possible to use partial regeneration. Firstly, generate the bass track entirely as Part A style (simple style). Now set the part markers to Part B style (walking bass). On the chord sheet, select bars 3 and 4 and partially generate the bass for those two bars. You can keep regenerating until you achieve a pattern that you like. Then move to bars 7 and 8, select those and regenerate those bars. Repeat the process until you have finished. Using regeneration will automatically freeze the track to protect your bass line so don't unfreeze it as you could lose all your hard work.

I can't think of a quick way to accomplish what you want.

Noel I am now using your second suggested method from above.
It's much easier to implement than the first.

Overall it's working nicely but I am having a few problems with it.
The song has a repeat section (1, 2).
The first pass is fine. I was able to insert the walking bass exactly where I wanted to by selecting the bars and then hitting Ctrl-F8.

On the second pass (repeat 2) I would also like to have the bass walk at certain bars (same as the first actually).
It's not doing it automatically, so I tried to add them just as I did for the first pass.
But now comes the problem...

When I select the bars I want the bass to walk in, and hit Ctrl-F8, I get this message:
"There is no Real Tracks on this Track. Would you like to select one?"
Yes / No / Cancel

Next steps?
