I am getting ready to redo all my bass and drum (midi) backing tracks I made a good while back, and replace them with realbass and realdrum mp3 files. I would appreciate a few pointers from some who have done this. My main question is, do you add any additional reverb to the realdrums. It is my understanding they have some reverb built in already. Also, do you do any panning when you intend using them only for live backing. I always play piano in stereo. Not sure if panning the bass and drums a little would be worthwhile. Thanks...Gary

I leave the Bass and Drums centered and just RightClick on the MIDI Bass and select a RealTrack suitable for the target song. RealDrums, I let the RealDrums picker choose them automatically.
Have never had a problem with mix, nor reverb issues, I leave that as it was in the MIDI version for the most part.
Bass, I don't like to Pan because when centered it yields the most power for the stereo system, desirable for the bass part and besides that, it is very hard for the human ear to tell the direction of the lower frequencies anyway. That's why you can place a subwoofer anywhere in the room.
Drums, I leave them centered because the RealDrums were recorded in stereo with overheads working and that yields the kind of sound I'm after as-is.
There should not be much need for a lot of mix tweaking when using the RealTracks and RealDrums. If you find that to be the case, it may be due to your RealDrums/RealTracks global amplitude settings. I use the defaults here and they work just fine.
