What comes with the Audiophile in the way of Stems ?
"There are also two new RealDrums Stems Sets" is there 30 to a set or 1 ?
"2024 Free Bonus PAK: ...RealDrums Stems Set 6"
"2024 49-PAK: RealDrums Stems Set 5"

So basically how many drums with stems are there now in BB24 ?
I can't see how many stems are in BB23 as it's still in the box but in BB22 there are 54 with stems.

I have 2023 and a couple of stem sets but they'd total less than 20.
I keep finding all of the stems in a kit are in mono...hard to recreate the mix if the overheads, toms and room are in mono.
I tried changing export settings to no avail.

The source files should be stereo for the room and overheads but Biab shows them as mono like in the Tracks view now the Drums show as mono. If you use the Reaper ver6 BBVST you should get the stereo source files.

What are the methods for auditioning these Drum Stems?

Thanks musocity... I tried this earlier, but just now found out I have to "Generate" after choosing stems.

Andrew said there's about 150 Drums with stems in total.
For some reason, I find only 112 if I select "Stems Found" in the picker. I see only 105 if I select "Stems Available" (by the way, what is the difference? If I understand correctly, "available" can only be bigger than "found", and yet I see the opposite here. But maybe I misunderstand). No other filters are active, obviously. For context:
- I have Ultrapak 2024, upgraded from previous Ultrapak, upgraded from previous Audiophile. I also bought the 49 pak.
- According to the "What BIAB add-ons do I have window", I have all the RealDrums, and all the XPro Styles, and all the RealTracks.
Any suggestion about how to know what's missing would be very welcome. Maybe this can be helpful for others as well.
EDIT: I think I missed a couple of 49-paks from previous years. Is it possible that that is the reason? If that is the case, is there a way to know what's in previous 49 paks and how to purchase them? I searched to website but I don't see anything previous 49 paks. Thanks a lot!

When I get home I’ll take a few screen shots. As I recall, quite a few came with Xtra styles although I’m not sure what some of the entries mean. I think stems were new two years ago so there shouldn’t be too many Paks you don’t have.

Thank you Matt.
I can confirm that I have all the Xpro Styles Paks, which I think are the ones that may contain extra RTs and RDs (I don't have all the Xtra Styles Paks though, but it seems to me that these do not contain extra RTs and RDs, just new styles based on previously available RTs and RDs, I think ). According to BIAB, I also have all the RD sets. As far as I can tell, the only reason why I may be missing some RDs with stems is that I didn't purchase all the 49-paks in the last few years (but I do have the one that just came out with BIAB 2024). Besides all that, I'm actually curious about whether it's possible to purchase the previous years' 49-packs. Maybe other people would be interested in that.

Good. About your last question, I’ve been requesting a way to do that for years.
