Hy everyone, this is just a quick "demo" I've made from a realdrum I've just finished. I've made a lot of them for my own use, but this is the first time I've made a realdrum completely from scratch, with lots of different fills and four different variations. It takes time, but the result is very satisfying to me. Here it is, just a minor blues where all instruments (except, of course, the drums) come from the new and great JAZFNKC style.

Here's another example, this time with all MIDI instruments. Composition, melody and soloist come from BIAB (I used the ABRA style)

Wow! Both are quite excellent (demo #1really rocks, though). So is this a realdrum thing created by you? Way cool if it is (still way cool if it isn't).

If you make your realdrum file available to the world, I'll find a way to use it.

Hi Cerio

What do you mean when you say you "made a realdrum completely from scratch" ?
I'm intrigued.

Kemmrich, if you want, just send me a PM (or even better, an email), and I will send you the files.

I've made several "custom" realdrums for my own use, just using loops or even parts of commercial songs where drums were isolated. This is easy, but you don't have any control over the grooves or sound, and it's nearly impossible making different variants, fills, etc. Programming the drums from scratch is another completely different story, you can do exactly what you want to do, but trying to emulate the subtle nuances that makes a drummer's performance "alive" is a quite time consuming process. As a bassist, I learn (and enjoy) a lot programming "live" drums, and making "blind tests" of these tracks with fellow musicians.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
