I know.

The way I use it...

I look for a single style that compliments the chords the best. That takes some time for me , because I am not that familiar with the styles in the program.
Once I find one, I make setting adjustments to it and try to get it "in the pocket" as much as possible.
Once that is done, I use multi-riffs and generate 7 variations at a time. I may end up doing this with 2 styles.
Once I get some that I like, I cut and paste along the chord changes until I get a single solo that I like more.

Recently, I was able to achieve something that did not feel locked to the chords but fairly natural and flowing.

I am going to send that off and see if a real good pianist can top it, but it works for the song if they dont.
That is pretty good for sitting at home with algorithms for a musical partner.
And getting better all the time.
