MultiRiff for RealDrums #730250 09/03/22 01:20 AM Band-in-a-Box Wishlist

It's by far the most useful addition to BiaB in the years I've been using it, but it's a little frustrating not to have the same control over the drum tracks. Sorry if this has been requested already (I'd be surprised if it hasn't), but couldn't find anything on a search.

It would be good to at least have a response from PG Music about this, because at the moment I can't see any reason why RealTracks can be partially regenerated but not RealDrums? Are they particularly different? They seem to be the same thing in essence.

Are they particularly different? They seem to be the same thing in essence. I suspect this is due to the way the program has evolved over time, realdrums were introduced before realtracks and both features were developed independently. But yes, I agree with the fact that, as much as possible, both should behave the same manner and share the same pickers and options. The fact that there are so many different track types (each one using different pickers, filters, options and features not because a design decision but because the way they have been introduced over time) is, IMO, one of the main reasons why people consider BIAB a difficult and counter-intuitive program. So yes, +1 here (and yes, this has been asked before) Last edited by Cerio; 12/05/22 11:14 AM. Latest BIAB version, latest build.

If not here a few options: In Realband you have more control but it takes so much longer, if it was made to work like Reaper it would be INSTANT. Zoom++ Having the sfz sample sets now for RealDrums this should work well: RealDrum Solos, Rolls If you just generate up DRUMSOLJ.STY export the midi drum file and import it to a Utility track in the Biab with RealDrums, set a section where you want a solo by enabling Playable Track then copy and paste the notes in from the midi drum solo that is on the Utility track, you can solo the Util track to find the riff you like. Zoom++ Biab Drums in Reaper will give full editing control https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=260677 https://www.dropbox.com/s/4mu71bmk1d2a8hf/Reaper-Biab-Drums-GUI.mp4?dl=0 Zoom++ Biab Track Injector https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=264293 https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=716019&page=all https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=717674#Post717674 Drums Video: https://www.dropbox.com/s/rj3xsgdacivjjis/Reaper-Biab-Track-Injector-05.mp4?dl=0

You can use the RealTrack Edit Mode now to cut copy move resize, though you can't copy the section to a new track, if it had that then you could build up your drum track just how you like.

I made up one for Reaper that you could add a drum riff but the source tracks had riffs recorded in them

I don't know how you would do the multiriff drums as they just play patterns for different sections see text below of a drum style.

You can import any section from any midi file drums you may have. You can also use a VST like EZDrummer, just drag export the midi solos from Biab DRUMSOLJ.STY into EZDrummer users library. You can change the Sforzando VST in the PayableRealDrums track to EZDrummer and it will play the midi drums in the EZDrummer track where you have the green mute sections in the BB Piano Roll, if you want the same sample set as Sforzando then you need to use ElementVST to chain Sforzando with the same sample set it was using after EZDrummer and set EZDrummer to just send it's midi out to Sforzando. As we still can't chain VSTi in Biab VST Handling Fixes Needed See EZKeys EZBass EZDrummer Jamstix Playable RealTracks

I do already have my workaround which is just to export a bunch of regens into my DAW and select the parts I like from different takes, but it would be so much faster for my workflow if I could just F8 it like I do with the RealTracks.
