I tried to get these to sound as close to http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=294725

There is a Wav & WMA version and a zip for the Mac Getting Custom Drums For Mac to Show (will make a Mac Package with requests)

Easiest to use with Realband but will work with BB.

Sample: MerseyEv8_Band.mp3

Mersey-Drums-wav.exe
Mersey-Drums-wma.exe
Mersey-Drums-Mac-m4a.zip

If you can't get them to work just copy these Beat files into the folders Mersey_Beat_Files.zip Realband automatically generates them but BB did not when I did an F5 Drum change.

* Update they all include the Bt1 files now




››MERSEYEV8^
Pop Rock Ev, 120 and 140 BPMs. With 2 bar Intros, Fills, Solos, 4 bar Endings and Bridge
(Realband)
Intros: Set Bar Offset to -2, highlight bar -1 and 0 > Generate Intros.
Fills/Bridge: Highlight any section > Generate Fills/Bridge.
4 Bar Endings: Uncheck 2 Bar Ending, add 8 more bars to song, highlight
5 bars > Generate 4 Bar Endings (Make sure Endings start on a Part Marker).

Thanks so much for creating this. It's something I'll definitely use.

A question, to where should I save the file if I want to use it with BIAB?

Thanks again.

Just run the Installer
BB files
Select the bb folder, if you run BB from external hard drive select the drive else leave default C:\bb

Drums
Select the bb folder, if you have your RealDrums on an external hard drive select the drive else leave default C:\bb

RealTracks
Select the bb folder, if you have your RealTracks on an external hard drive select the drive else leave default C:\bb


The Beat files you can place in the same name Drum folder (only if they don't generate for you)

Thank you,

I did as you advised and ran the installer for Mersey-Drums-wav.exe. I saved it on my portable hard drive(G)where I access my Real drums and Real tracks. I put them in the Drums folder and in the User Tracks folder. Mersey-Drums shows up in the Real drums list, but doesn't load. When I check both folders on my portable hard drive its not there. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks again.

If you are running BB form C:\ and have the Drums/RealTracks on G:\ then this is what you choose:



If you still can't find them use InnoExtractor to manually extract the files from the setup exe.
