I don't have the 2014 version (yet), so I'm haven't been able to verify how BiaB behaves. But Chris_Kn noted that if a particular type of chord wasn't found in a User Style, BiaB would simply not generate anything.
Would it be possible for BiaB to have a fallback list as an option? Some possible substitutions:
C5 -> C C7 -> C Cm7 -> Cm, E/C Csus4 -> F/C Cmaj7 -> Em/C, C Cmaj9 -> Em7/C, G/C C11 -> Gm7/C, Gm/C, Bb/C Cdim -> Ebm
If the set is really sparse, a fallback might have to call another fallback, so:
Cmaj7 -> Em/C -> G/C -> G
This obviously isn't optimal, but it's probably more helpful than not outputting anything at all.
I know that I could generate these substitutions by hand, but that would cause problems for tracks that do have the right chords.

Hi David,
Yes, it already has a fallback. So it should never play silence.
Have Fun! Peter Gannon PG Music Inc.

I figured it was probably too obvious. ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif) Thanks!

This can be noticed by entering certain chords and then listening to what certain RealTracks play for those chords.
Perhaps easier to spot when using a certain RealTrack that has become more familiar to you, a lot easier when the RealTrack has the accompanying Notation, if you're a reader type.
Good keyboardists and guitarists have to think like that a lot of the time anyway - and such can add an openness to your comping and etc.
Finding the two notes that are most important for any given chord and internalizing that information is a large part of the job. The Shells.
