Posted By: Vasa custom RealDrums - with EZ scheme - 05/18/16 03:42 PM
I would like to create e custom realDrum.

I followed the examples and tutorials which are on website
but I need some different scheme.

When I tried to make some modifications I got very bad the result.

I would like to do:

2bars empty ( as count-in )

8bars Variation_A  with last bar as FILL_IN_A
8bars Variation_A  with last bar as FILL_IN_B

2bars Ending_A
2bars Ending_B

2 or 1 bars for Shots and Push.

May I ask you to help in writing the correct .txt file for a wav with this scheme?

Try this:


wavename=MyStyle.wav

;any text that comes after the semicolon (;) are "comments" which are ignored by Band-in-a-Box.
;"comments" are used to give you information and instructions on creating your RealDrums style.
;In addition, any text contained between the { and } characters are also ignored.
;For example {this text would be ignored, even if it were in the middle of a line}
;Scroll to the bottom of the text file for information on how the wave file should be arranged

Offset=-5 ;If the drum hits at beginnings of bars sound like they are "cut-off", enter a lower number (-7, -8, -9, etc.)
dBAdjust=0 ;If the drums sound too loud in Band-in-a-Box, enter a lower number (-1, -2, -3, etc.)
TimeSig=4 ;If your style is a waltz style, enter TimeSig=3 instead

;All drum patterns follow this template:
;pattern,{pattern type},{weight},{mask},{length},{wavefile bar#}

; Silent Count In -1 0, Post A Fill 1, Normal Playing A 2-7, Fill A 8, Post Fill A 9
; Normal Playing 10-15, Fill B 16, Aending 17, Bending 19, Shot 21, Shot 22

We've added a template to the RealDrums Template zip, that has only 8 bars of A, 8 bars of B, 2 endings, 1 shot and 1 push.
"16_bars_of_drumming_with_shots_two_endings.txt"

Note that it has the A ending before the B section starts rather than at the end. The commented text at the bottom describes what the wave file should look like.

Thanks Andrew for updating and fixing the errors that were in the patterns !
It would of been good if you could include the SEQ templates as they can have markers in them to show what goes where, also a midi file template with markers can be loaded into any daw to give markers for the pattern when creating the drums.

I know when I first tried the templates it was confusing because the info at the bottom of the text file did not use the 2 bar offset for bar numbers as the pattern does:

; bar# 1-2 - count-in for two bars
pattern,Count-in,0,5,0,2,-1

; 21-22 - two bar ending (usually the second bar ends on the downbeat, with a cymbal decaying)
pattern,ending,Bending,5,0,2,19


; 23 - single drum hit, which will be used for "shots" in Band-in-a-Box
; 24 - single drum hit, which will be used for "pushes" in Band-in-a-Box
Shot,1,21,0,470,5,90
Shot,0,22,0,470,5,90

This would help make it easier for most users to get their head around it.
