Re Drum Fills.

there is a trick i use you might try sometime.

1..create a new bb project separate from your song….lets call it Gonzo Drum Fills.GDF.
2..set GDF to same tempo as your song…and drum style(s) you want in song.
3..populate the bb chord sheet all over with x.d
(x = song key it dont matter c or d or whatever). eg c.d means only play drums.
4..put markers everywhere you want…n' any pushes/stops you want etc.etc.
5..generate GDF to hear drum fills play back…
then you can place the fills anywhere you want mate n' move em around.to see where the fills work best in the song against the song arrange bed traks.

between bb n' realband …you can do the following…

..gen loads of midi n' audio drum traks.
(on the midi drum traks you can load in drum plug ins if you wish)
..as above re fills etc .
..as above to do FANCY SHORT n' LOOONG DRUM SOLOS !
..using above ideas you could get rhythms that sync with the real drums.
eg lets say you want a synth rhythm that follows the drums or whatever,as realband has 48 traks you can get very very fancy with genning loads of drum traks n' fills etc etc…
eg rb has a drum pattern generator also that can
be used for instrument rhythms. …the skys the limit.

lots of triks to discover in rb eg sometime check out rb BARS VIEW for moving chunks of drum riffs around not only within a trak but also comping new final drum trak from various drum generations.

for EXAMPLE in rb you could end up with the following..

..end up with a trak with a final comped drum trak (from several gens.)
..have a separate trak for FILLS.
..have a third trak for drum SOLOS.

bars view is very useful in rb.

anyhoo i hope this gives you enough info to start.
lots of drum triks to discover tween bb n' realband.

happiness.

om

ps MATT is spot on with his comment EXPERIMENT.
(in both bb n' rb)
