So dragging out strict section (bar Two) into DAW, might sound choppy.

In theory block drag out could work if a user would be allowed to define offset, let say 1/4 of a bar or so from each side of selection to feather in results in DAW. This should be OK for Track View as you can do selection freehand, but in Chord View it would need some kind of basic offset option.

If that ^ can be done, +1
Hey Rustyspoon,

I see what you're getting at now, and perhaps should have drafted my initial post better to clarify that if I wanted 4 specific measures, I would likely generate 6, so that I could have an extra bar to capture anything that I may want to lead in to the target measures, (i.e. the pick up notes), and another one for any "spillover" or tail. Then I would simply trim out the unwanted parts of those in Reaper. This process would obviate the need for any offset option, as I see it.

Editing to add: This method would also make it easier to line up the measures of the newly generated material into the existing track(s) in Reaper, which would be especially useful and quicker for background and soloist RT segments
