I havent been following lately the revisions of realtracks
but is there an style or an ending which sounds like those in rock concerts where the drum rolls, the cymbal rolls, the bass guitar rolls, and then suddenly all come down to a grinding halt ?

I doubt that you will currently find that style of ending currently in BiaB

That is an excellent item for the wishlist.
To extend your request, we can also imagine some Ending RealTracks in different genres of styles (Rock, Hard Rock, Pop, Ballad, Country, ...).
Reach for excellence

I have not found it if there is...... but you can always make your own. BB also doesn't have the kind of ending where the music stops and holds and the drums smack either one or a triplet... Single smack>>> https://app.box.com/s/8zwr48mczf1isj64tnwuTriplet smack>>>> https://app.box.com/s/i7g5w4sz5bq83semzwiiThese endings were done with audio editing. I think... I'd have to reopen the original files, but the triplet may have been created with a drum synth and tuned with EQ to match. If you are creative and have the time and patience, lots of possibilities exist. You just have to think.... how can I do that thing I'm hearing in my head.

At the end of a lot of the actual wmv files used to create the Realtracks there are often a variety of samples. Cymbal crashed and other drum hits are often recorded separately one at a time, these can be used as 'samples' to create what you need to match the existing sound. You need to copy the drum or cymbal you want and paste it where you want, or use a VST sample player to do it. It's really not that hard.
Some realtracks have unique things hidden in them also, but the drums are usually pretty easy.
Make your sound your own! .. I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

I got the impression the O/P was maybe looking for an ending like this: Night Birds - Shakatak Live - Ending Maybe the O/P can confirm?

I was actually thinking the same thing.... And creating an ending such as you gave for an example is not impossible, but it takes some work and creative editing or programming a drum synth such as Jamstix with midi. I didn't have any endings close enough to that in my stuff so yeah... thanks for taking the time to find that. Perhaps on the next song I write/record that could use such an ending... I will play around and see if I can create that from BB/RB or if I need to go outside the box to do it.

Thanks Herb Yeah When I was thinking about this I went looking on YouTube for some 'big' endings, and I started with Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel, and Elton John. They all had great endings - but they all took three and a half days. That was a bit out of the question.
I have always been a big fan of Acid Jazz and Jazz Funk, and therefore Shakatak, esp. Bill Sharpe (who incidentally must have about 30 fingers on each hand), so went looking for one of their live performances, an voila, this was what I expected the O/P might have meant.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
