Would like to see RealTracks for Drums to be in separate tracks such as KICK, SNARE, TOMS, CYMBALS so we can have our own way of mixing each drum track. Maybe there is a way that may not be discoverable for me yet.

They are mixed wave files so no not yet until they make separate files for each drum and that would take up tons of disk space. You can read the tutorial on making Real Drums and make some of your own. Or get a good drum program like jamstix that will output to 8 channels and send them to separate tracks.

Yes, separated RealDrums tracks would require a rather HUGE filesize situtation.

Certainly doable in this day and age, though, but be prepared to pay handsomely for such an option. Consider the pricing of the Audiophile RealTracks version...

One thing we can do with RealDrums right now is to learn how to apply and use a good Multiband Compressor plugin. This can let you highlight certan key frequency areas to bring out more kick, or the like.

Even the new Tone control in version 2010 can serve to emphasize certain parts of the kit easily.

Come to think of it that's not a bad idea.

What about PG Music release the hits that you get at the end of each RealDrum track as a separate download.

You could then find the hit that you require.

I'm not very technical but it appears to me that it would'nt take long for PG Music to implement this.

The disc size for a project like this has already been addressed.

Here is an option for you to try. Copy your RD 3or 4 times in your DAW. Apply different EQ and compression to each copied track, one track to emphasize the kick drum, one for the snare, etc. This will help.

An easier solution is to use MIDI with a good sounding drum kit. This is the route that I use. YMMV


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
