Really enjoying RB 2011. The vibes are a great addition. Problem: the tempo ranges are missing. At least I think they are missing. Anyone know what the suggested ranges are? Many thanks.

With 2011 new stretch engine it's pretty much a moot point. You may want to use the 1/2 time, double time, tripple time though to get something that sounds right musically.

Actually, it's not just the vibes. It's all of the 2011 add-ons. I guess the old tempo ranges (which are still listed) don't really mean anything either? I guess now its just trial and error until you get something that works? Can't rely on the old tempo designations? I'm not sure most users are going to realize that. Some of the instruments have tempo ranges listed, and some do not. Looks like an oversight, but maybe I'm wrong.

Hello,
Thanks for pointing that out. We'll fill in that info in the next patch. Note that those tempo ranges are just a rough guideline for tempos that the instrument probably sounds best at.

Andrew,
Actually, the printed ranges really help a lot. They cut down on a trial and error only method for selecting tracks. I rely on them quite a bit. Thanks for noting it and adding them on the next build. By the way, many of the new additions in 2011 are just great.

RealBand does have a RT tempo substitution option.
This is from the RTTempoSwaps file for Vibes...
1215,85=1216,140 ;Vibes, Rhythm Bossa Ev 1219,60=1217,110=1218,140 ;Vibes, Rhythm Jazz Sw 1226,60=1222,110=1224,140 ;Vibes, Soloist Jazz Sw 1227,60=1223,110=1225,140 ;Vibes, Soloist Jazz Sw (Bluesy)
To decipher the last line 1227, 1223, and 1225 are the RT#. 60, 110 and 140 are the tempos for those sets. The range is usually about 10 bpm under the next highest tempo. In other words, the 110 RT will automatically change at around 130 and use the 140 RT. If you load a RT in BIAB and change tempo, you'll see where this happens. Of course, you have to have RT tempo swap enabled which, I think, is the default.
