I have stored a complete sug file in Biab.

I use RealBand to open the SUG file.

why is there no drum?

Perhaps you could attach the .SGU file to a post (add '.mp3' or similar to allow it to be attached) and someone might be able to investigate?

i have no idea why you have no drums. do the drums play in BIAB? from your other posts when you asked how to open a file - how are you opening the file? or are you using drag and drop?

There are drums in BIAB.
I open it normally in RB. Not dragging.
It really doesn't work, I'll still use STUDIO ONE

by all means use studio one but RB seems to work for other people. you've had a good suggestion in another thread saying 'slow down'. you won't master BIAB or RB immediately. read the manuals, experiment with the programs. when things go wrong and other people can't duplicate the problem, its usually user error. it certainly is with me and i've been using BIAB and RB (or Powertracks before that) for over 20 years.

maybe BIAB and RB don't work exactly as you expect but that could be because they simply don't work that way. hands on experience and learning for yourself with the aid of the manuals finding out how things work will give you a better understanding of how to do things - the more you learn the more you'll be able to work out for yourself

I will check out RB's instructional video. I can foresee the convenience of RB. The combination of BIAB and RB will make the work more perfect.
Finally, make the final adjustment and recording through STUDIO ONE, and add other VST settings
It's like cooking a meal. grin

i'd be surprised if there's anything you can do in Studio One you can't do in RB once you've learnt how to use it. the only thing i can think of is using vst3s as plugins

Is RB pointed correctly to your Realdrums folder?
Swingbabymix's Realdrum track shows as a MIDI track (should be audio) which to me implies RB didn't find the Realdrums folder.

Options - Preferences - Song Generation
Check the path for Realdrums

In RealBand Options > Preferences, this need to point to where your RealDrums are located:
