Heya!

There are a number of Motown Styles in the Style Picker, which I highly appreciate! But I think that also Stax should be represented explicitly in the Style Picker.

I came to this forum in order to suggest feature improvements for non-professional musicians like myself that use BiaB mainly as a playalong tool and as a learning tool

Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Thanks very much for the suggestion. I just wanted to clarify something though. Your request could be interpreted in two ways:

1. You'll like to see more RealTracks/RealDrums/RealStyles done in the style of some Stax recordings.

2. You'd like to have some styles in the stylepicker actually labeled as "Stax" styles.


If you meant the first thing, that you'd like to see new RealTracks/RealDrums/RealStyles done in the style of some Stax recordings, yes, that's a very good idea! If that's the case, are there any specific songs/artists that you might like to see as "templates" for new RealTracks/etc.?

If you meant the second point, that you'd like to actually have some styles in the stylepicker labeled as "Stax" styles, that also is a good idea, but unfortunately we likely wouldn't do that. The issue is that "Stax" is exclusively a label/brand name. Motown is ALSO a label/brand, but it's ALSO almost universally accepted as an actual genre that goes beyond the label itself. For example, here is a wikipedia entry for the label: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motown, but here is also a wikipedia entry for the genre: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motown_(music_style)

Hi MoveToGroove,

Just following up on this. Are there any youtube links you could post that give an idea of the types of styles you'd like to see?

thanks,
Tobin

Hi MoveToGroove,

Thanks for this great suggestion! Here are some RealStyles that use some of the new RealTracks we made based on this post:
