I right click on the track itself and the 6th "block" of information states "Select and Generate RealDrums...." and below that is "Generate RealDrums (favorites)"

Hope this is what you were looking for.

All the best,

Mark

There is no "picture icon" for RealDrums or RealTracks in RealBand. You just right click on the track and select how you want to apply them from the popup menu.

One more thing, usually creat my RD track before anything else (to accompany my guitar) where do I set the number of RD bars?

stratocaster ,

I just took Newed screen which defaults to 32 bars.
Generated a RD track. It rendered to 2 leadin + 32 + 2 ending.

Use this + or minus to set your length.

Good luck,
Seeker

Upper right has 'From Thru settings to select a region to highlite. That's what gets generated.

As mentioned, it defaults to 32 bars (you can see the '32' in the box in the section just above the Tracks window) and you can also just change this to a larger number if desired.

Thanks! I think that RB is somewhat different from PT :-)
When I'm in chords window I can't see the first bars (if I minimise the keyboard I can see from bar 9) Also it seems like I can't enter chord names in the chords window ???

Click on the bar so the box is on the bar number, while entering the chord it chows in the 'chord entry box' at top of chord window, it doesn't appear in the bar until you hit enter. It may appear like you can't enter chords, but you can. It just doesn't show in the bar until you hit enter key.

To see the other bars, use the scrollbar on right side of chords window

Well the problem is that I can scroll down, but not up above bar 9. Regarding chord entry,
I enter Ami and hit enter. In PT this has always worked, but in RB nothing happens? Ihave version 2011 V2!

2011 build 4 addressed the issue below, maybe that is coming inot play (?) Try updating to newest build.

Fixed: When clicking on Chorus Begin or Chorus End button, and then clicking on the Chords Window, the focus remained on the button that had been clicked on

They beta test new versions, but updates for each version are done in house. Sometimes little things slip by. Changing A may somehow affect B. It happens. Glad that fixed it.
