I am enjoying a nice generated guitar solo on one of the RealTrack Styles Demo Songs. After searching the forum and examining some of the windows, I can't seem to find if BIAB will give me the guitar solo in notation (hopefully TAB). Thoughts?

Find the actual RealTrack soloist in the RealTrack picker. There is a column that shows if notation is provided. Not sure about TAB - can someone confirm if that is shown to be present?

ps By the time the day is over, you're going to be answering everyone else's questions!

OK I found that the soloist is Brent Mason for #4884. When I looked that up on the RealTrack tab of the MP, I looked at all the columns and found one labelled "chart" and it says "Gt" (perhaps guitar TAB?). But then I cannot find any control to see where that might be if that means there is some notation of the solo. An adventure!

OK, it has notation. Good. I think GT means notation and TAB, not sure. Anyway, load the RealTrack and switch into Notation Mode (or Editable Notation Mode should also work).

Whoa complicated stuff. Figured out what load it meant, then found the notation page then figured out there are little buttons at the top to pick an instrument and THEN there it was the standard and TAB notation for the solo and it played along in real time. Even the bass had tab! Whew. Then I realized that the playing and solo was WAY above my pay grade (well yeah, world famous pro guitarist - duh). LOL What an adventure. Learned a lot here thanks to your coaching. Will now fall back on something simpler at my stage. Impressive software. It will be interesting to see where and for what I end up using it. I think that is becoming clear. Thanks so much Matt.
