Since we have no control over the inversion BiaB will use on any chord, they are essentially the same.

I almost exclusively use MIDI, and export to a sequencer or DAW. That way, I can move that 2 to the top if it isn't there already, or change any other inversion so that it suits the song better.

I have good hardware sound modules, so they sound 95% as good as Real Tracks. IMHO, with the ability to extensively edit the MIDI tracks, a little tweaking can make the MIDI song much better than the RT song. YMMV

It would be interesting to get your thoughts on editing RealTracks with Playable RealTracks. The midi editing is the same, so the comparison will be audio versus midi patches. My thought is some instruments will improve from the 95% level you're at now. With the Playable RealTracks option, you get the SFZ sample assigned by PGM staff and also access to any third party midi sound engine you have including VST3.
