There are 2 sections to this dialog, Advanced Instrument Settings and Preferences.
Advanced Instrument Settings
The advanced instrument settings allow settings for the instruments (drums / bass / piano / guitar / strings) to be
included in the style. The settings are:
The “Substyles” determines whether the instrument is included in the “A,” “B,” or
both “A&B” substyles. For example, if you want to make a style that only uses the
strings on the “B” substyle, set the strings instrument part to “B” only.
The Voicings settings determine, for the various instruments:
Drums (“voicings”): Whether the patterns will use live or grid style
patterns. Default mode is “auto,” which normally uses live patterns, but
you can force it to use live or grid style patterns. Live patterns have
higher resolution and can use more instruments, so in general are the
better choice.
Bass (“voicings”) determine if the bass part will use All notes / Scale
tones only / Root 3rd, 5th,7th / Root, 3rd, 5th / Root and 5th / or just the
Root. The default is “Auto-select” which usually allows all 12 semitones.
