below is a message in the tutorial section.it is so one can check to see if all the drums are "in the right place" i checked and it stated that.........RealDrums sets in C:\bb\Drums\ : 1- Rock and Jazz..... it was obvious that a LOT were missing (according to my BIAB files)but they are not "missing" if they are not supposed to be there in the 1st place,right? (Pro version). the tutorial below is a somewhat confusing article to me


is there someway i can check to see that i have everything installed and in the proper place as ti should be for the 2011 pro version?

if everything is as it should be then i am more than happy with this version...God knows pro version is confusing enough without the added extras:)


can i get a guitar player voice to solo over any of the songs?












To find out which RealDrums Sets you have installed, you can go to the Help menu in Band-in-a-Box and click on What add-ons do I have? On the Mac version, you can go to the MIDI menu | What add-ons do I have?

To find out which RealDrums styles you have installed, On the PC you can open the RealDrums Settings dialog (RealDrums button in toolbar) and click the RD button. In PowerTracks 12 or Band-in-a-Box 2007, you'll get a menu that shows all of your RealDrums styles. In Band-in-a-Box 2008 and higher, you'll get a full-featured 'RealDrums Picker' dialog showing all your RealDrums styles. You can also right-click on the Drums track in the instrument panel and select 'Add/remove RealDrums'. On the Mac, either click the RealDrums button or control-click on the Drums track and select 'Choose RealDrums' to open the RealDrums Picker. In the RealDrums Picker dialog, you can also find out which styles you are missing by checking the box "Show RealDrums that are N/A (not available).

An alternative way to find out which styles you have is to look at the file 'DrumFolderNames.txt' or 'PGALLDrumFolderNames.txt' in your Band-in-a-Box folder - this file lists all of the styles found in your drums folder, including variations.

If you think it isn't displaying some of the RealDrums sets you have, try pressing the Update button in the (Band-in-a-Box) RealDrums Settings dialog (it shouldn't normally be necessary for you to do this). The other possibility is that you have some of your RealDrums installed to a 'Drums' folder in a different location. You need to have all of your styles in a single 'Drums' folder. This is usually C:\bb\Drums on the PC, or /Applications/Band-in-a-Box/Drums on the Mac.

Below is a list of the RealDrums styles included in each set. This list is current to RealDrums Set 29.
