I'd like a continous JAZZ RealDrums drum solo, in order to create a drum break at any bar(s) I want. I'd change the RealDrum style (F5) for the duration of a number of bars, then change back to normal again.

Would be great in other styles too, but I think jazz is needed the most, since it's really a standard thing to do over the last two measures of the head, that leads into the solo.

Yes, it’s been awhile since this was discussed. Good suggestion.

+1

I could see a whole set with fills of one bar, two bars, four bars, eight bars etc. and solos in swing, Latin, country, etc.

You can do that now.
The Playable RealTracks should be working on Drums but they haven't got them enabled yet.
If you load Sforzando into a Utility track and choose a PG Drum Kit,
you can then select Piano Roll, select a Utility track, drag n drop a midi drum solo into it setting the bars in to position the midi.
Go into the Audio Edit for the RealDrum track and mute those bars that have midi. Adjust the volume of the midi drums to match the RealDrums.

+1 to have drum solo/ roll variations, but hopefully an easy way to select / audition these.

P.S.Pipeline nice presentations!

Just tell me why Pipeline is not part of the Staff PG???

To preserve independent thinking?

It's true that it's one of the first times I understand his instructions ;-)

Thank you, Pipeline! That is a possible workaround. I just have very limited time to edit my backing tracks for the weekly Youtube lessons. A simple Real Drums Solo, that also has the same sound as the ongoing drums would be a lot faster and simpler.

+1 on the fills idea!
That way the fill would probably sound more realistic, than just takin 2 or 4 measures out of a several minute long drum solo.

Great idea

Requested this myself years ago... only to be told there and then that someone else had done so "years ago"! crazy

But still, obviously, +1
