Is it possible to pick a custom midi instrument in the plugin? I see midi supertrack, Midi soloist, realtrack, etc but no custom midi like in the standalone program..

Thanks

So you are looking for the "Choose Custom Midi Style for track.."
I think that has been asked for, maybe the easiest way is generate it up in the main app then drag export MID from main app and drop it on an empty track in the plugin.
This way it won't be generating up an audio wav/aiff file.

Hi Bo! This is not currently an option in the plugin but a great suggestion! I will look into the possibility of adding this feature. Thank you!

Adar,

It may help to get an idea how the import midi style is implemented in the main Band-in-a-Box for Windows program. +++ HERE +++ is a 3 1/2 minute video from 2019 that demonstrates the feature.
