Hi RickeG,

My below thoughts may or may not be of use. They might give you some ideas, though.

SLOWING DOWN
BIAB will slow Realdrums' tempo at each bar (right-click >> bar settings). What I'd do is to reduce the tempo by 10% (say) in each bar. That would mean that each subsequent bar is 10% slower than the previous bar. It is also possible to simply type in a defined tempo (bpm) in each bar.

DRUM FILLS
As you know, part markers give BIAB the cue to play a fill and that this fill occurs in the bar before the part marker. Let's say I want a solo in bars 33, 34, 35, 36. I agree with jazzmammal and I'd try putting an A or B part marker on 34, 35, 36, 37. In each of the 4 bars, you would need to use the ".d" notation to silence all instruments except the drums (e.g. C.d - it wouldn't really matter what the chord was). This might do the job. I suspect that how elaborate the fills are is dependent upon which Realdrums you use. For example, rock beats would probably have more elaborate fills (and thus sound more solo-like) than country beats.

Regards,
Noel
