Hello
has anyone found, or made, a drum real track style that has a predominant ride cymbal on every quaver for a slightly swing funk style about 85, please?
thanks

What's a quaver, do you mean 1/16th note?

Assuming you do mean 1/16ths ride hits this might work: FunkyGroovin70s^ variations 3b and 5b

thanks - that exactly the feel, but I want to hear 'ding ding ding' on the ride cymbal doing eighth notes as well, if possible. (I can record it myself of course, but just wondered if it is in a style)

Rain1,

Great! I'm glad my guess was close. I based my guess using the DrumPicker and filtered the selections using the genre you provided as a filter.

The DrumPicker is available by using the mouse cursor to select the RealDrums icon in the Tracks control bar. See the top screen shot.

Once opened, I entered "funk" in the filter window and used the mouse cursor to press the update button to narrow the available choices. See the bottom screen shot.

Then it is just highlighting each choice, paying attention to the variation notes and playing the demos.

Your last post indicates the feel of my guess works so you may want to try some of the other variations of this RealDrum. Also note that if you try other RealDrums selections you'll likely want to stick with those with SW (SWING) in the column that has the * in the column header. * means I clicked on the column header to sort the filtered selections by that column.

Ohhhhh, I LOVE THIS SOUND and I got the exact beat for you fam!

I spend hours at work (I work from home) dragging a playlist of dozens of RD tracks straight from the RealDrum folder into a playlist in my media player, which I play in the background while work, and when something REALLY hits my ear, I take a screencap of it so I can refer back to it later.

As of right now, I've only heard ONE variation, of ONE sub-style, of ONE beat that captures that sound PERFECTLY (although I haven't listened to EVERY track so don't take this as gospel...I'm sure there are quite a few more).

You ready for it?

It's SouthernPopNeoSoulsw16^ variation 3; substyle b (don'y forget the b substyle bit, because substyle "A" of variation 3 is something totally different (A is hat,snare, and B is ride,snare).

Oh, and the actual track number is 316 (see screenshot)

Editing to add that the recommended tempo range for the track is 60-110, so it's right in your target zone :-)

Just to add, I checked out the variations/sub-styles referenced by Jim Fogle, and yes, you have the ride playing quarter notes in both those examples. However in those examples the "tings" are placed on the offbeat (the "and-uh" as opposed to the one-e").

While it's definitely a great sound that accentuates the "swing" nature of the rhythm, if, as I'm assuming OP may have been referring to when he said "I want to hear 'ding ding ding' on the ride cymbal doing eighth notes as well, if possible" and assuming OP is looking for that solid ting-ting-ting you can hear in lots of old-school Cypress Hill songs and other late 80s-early 90s Boom Bap songs, the beat I recommend is much more suited IMHO.

I beg you not to take offense Jim! I just thought the difference between the 3 would be helpful to point out... :-)

DeaconBlues09,

No offense taken. The more suggestions the more opportunities Rain1 has to audibly hear an exact match of what he is seeking.

While both of us are offering selections we believe matches what he wants, Rain1's description was not comprehensive so only Rain1 really knows what he is seeking.

My primary goal was to introduce Rain1 and other users to the DrumPicker and describe a way to use the DrumPicker to narrow selections to audition.

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."
