From the details on PG Music's website, it seems that Realtracks Set 28 only contains Realtracks and does not include Realdrums. I've taken the attached image from the webpage below.

Because your BIAB is not loading the Realdrums in the style, I'm guessing that this means that BIAB 2023 Pro does not include these Realdrums. I'm not certain about that, though. It could easily be confirmed with a quick chat to sales staff at PG Music using Live Chat. The 'Pro' package of BIAB is the entry-level package and it doesn't contain everything.

Realdrums are mostly sold as separate packages.

If it is indeed the case that Set 28 does not include the Realdrums, Mario's post explains how to load in an alternative set of Realdrums. I'm pretty sure that you would have a swing jazz waltz set that would do the job fine. After you load in your chosen drums, make sure to save a songfile. The next time you load this songfile, it will already be set up for you to use the Realdrums that you loaded. Simply changing the Realdrums does not overwrite the base style file. This means that next time you load the style, you will also need to add the Realdrums manually.

Here is the link to Mario's post.

I hope this helps give some insight.

That's what I am seeing on the webpage about what RealDrums were supplied:

"There are hundreds of RealDrums styles available for Jazz, Rock-Pop, Country and more! All of the RealDrums Sets are included in the UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, and Audiophile Editions of Band-in-a-Box."

The evidently are NOT included in the ProPAK

The RealDrums he needs are on RealDrum set #2

RealDrums Set 2: Waltzes, Country and More!

RealDrums Set 2 features both even 8ths and Swing Waltzes, as well as straight-ahead Jazz, Reggae, and a selection of Country styles. The PopWaltz and JazzBrushesWaltz styles feature cool brushes playing in the "A" section, and then switches to sticks in the "B" section to give your song a boost of energy. The Jazz style features classic hi hat patterns through the "A" section, and then switches to the ride cymbal for the "B" section. There are three Country styles to choose from, including CountryEven16, CountryEven8 and CountrySwing. The even 8 and even 16 styles are great to use for modern radio Country, and CountrySwing can be used for a great old Texas Swing tune. Also included is a Reggae groove that sits right in the pocket. All RealDrums styles were recorded with top session players, so you know you're getting the best!
