Is there any chance we could get Ooh/Aahs for Waltz styles. To clarify, I'm using POPWLZS.STY. While it's a Waltz style (3/4 time sig), this style plays like 6/8, where the kick hits on 1 and the snare on 4 and hats are on 1-2-3-4-5-6...not your standard "oom pa pa" waltz.
I suppose oohs/aahs and organ in a standard waltz might still work. Alas, I can't find them in my BiaB content.
The chat rep looked too and had no luck fining BG Vocal and Organ realtracks for this Pop Rock Waltz style. She was going to put in a request for me with the developers.
Anyone else have this issue and if you found a workaround can you share here?
Thanks!
Marc

If you go to the RTpicker and search for oohs you will find over a 100 vocal tracks. Are you telling us none of these work over 3/4? I just listened and there is certaining 6/8 stuff there. ![[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=download&Number=30911&filename=Screenshot 2025-06-23 170430.jpg)

Dan, might that availability depend on the specific BIAB 'Pak' that Marc is using? (My search shows 58).

But since the RTs do not indicate the time signature (I think?) I was concerned that vocal ohs and ahs would not be amenable to 3/4 timing. But I suspect as long as you select swing you will get a triplet feel which fits the 3/4 - 6/8 feel which is the way BIAB gets around this.

Dan, can you please check and see if you get a different search count result for the string 'vocals' or 'oohs' between the legacy RealTracks picker compared to the Multi-Picker > RealTracks tab?
Searching for the string: 'vocal' I get a count of 90 from the Multi-Picker > RealTracks tab, and from the legacy RealTracks I get a count of 94. There are 4 jazz items from sets 16 & 17 included in the old picker and I cannot determine the reason. They are all Bossa.
I have cleared all of the filters.
I wonder if others get a different result between the two?

I got the exact same results that you report based on "vocal". 90 in multipicker RTs and 94 in the RTpicker.
Still waiting to hear back from OP if this is helpful or is not what they are looking for?

Thanks and sorry for the delay. I just noticed there was a filter value "atmosphere" (that I didn't input) that was masking out some content. My bad. So sorry to bother everyone. I see more RT vocals. Most that might work with the time sig feel are MMMs and DooWop vocals which is not what I was hoping for. I appreciate the help and I'll check the interface a little closer next time. I just thought there might be more Shelly Justice and David Wise-type Oohs and Aahs RTs already recorded for this type of feel/style. Thanks again and cheers!
