New RealDrums styles can be made by the user or third parties, using standard WAV files. You can fully control which styles you will hear MIDI vs. And best of all, we've seamlessly integrated the RealDrums into Band-in-a-Box, so you just use the program as you normally do, and you will hear RealDrums instead of MIDI drums, according to your preferences. Change tempos or volumes during playback, using the same tempo/volume controls as MIDI. And the tracks intelligently play differently at faster/slower tempos, so you hear appropriate playing for the current tempo (not seen in MIDI drums). As well as improved drum sounds, you are hearing the exact rhythms played by the drummer, including features not seen in MIDI (subtle drum rolls, variations in ride cymbal taps, complex fills etc.).
You'll wonder, "why does the guitar sound more real?" It's because the realism of the drum part has the effect of improving the overall sound. Adding a real instrument to the mix makes all of the Band-in-a-Box parts sound more authentic. They sound like a real drummer, because they are recordings of a real drummer. The results are dramatically better than MIDI. For example, choose a brushes style, and you will now hear lush Jazz brushes.
These are not "samples," but are full recordings, lasting from 1 to 8 bars, playing along in perfect sync with the other Band-in-a-Box tracks. We've added real audio drums to Band-in-a-Box! This replaces the MIDI Drum track with real recordings of top studio Jazz/Rock/Country drummers. The New Features in Band-in-a-Box 2007 for Windows are.
