I suspect I need orientation about how this might work. Let's say I want to create a drum track in BB to use as a metronome replacement and only with RealDrums sounds (not MIDI). That is, something to practice timing against rather than the plain clicks of a metronome.

I suspect one way would be to choose a style that I like, listen to the creation, solo the drums, make that for a few bars over one chord and loop it.

I am confused about another possible alternative that might be to choose a RealDrums instrument and somehow directly make a track starting with that selection.

But perhaps I am confused about his second idea in that it is the "styles" that determine what a drum track really sounds like and RealDrums are simply instruments that are used in different styles and therefore are just a sound and not a composed "beat".

I hope I have asked this in an understandable fashion. Can you help me understand what I need to know and where I might be mistaken?

Thank you so much to this community for your patience with newbies and possibly convoluted questions! smile
