The RealDrums button now has a menu (like the RealTracks button) to choose the RealDrums Picker Dialog,
Shift+click, or the RealDrums Preferences, Ctrl+click.
New Favorite Songs/Styles Dialog
There’s a new dialog for these favorites with separate lists of “Recently Played” and “Favorite” songs or styles. The
previous Favorite Songs/Styles dialog was a list of recently used songs/styles. Now there are 2 tabs in this dialog,
showing you both recently used songs/styles, and a new list of “favorites” that you select as favorite songs or styles.
You can add an unlimited number of favorites.
The “F” button launches the Favorites / Recently Played dialog.
The “Favorites” and “Recently Played” Radio buttons toggle between a
list of your recently played songs (or styles), and your Favorite songs (or styles).
The favorites list will start off as an empty one, but you can add songs/styles as your
favorites, by clicking the [Add Favorite] button. (This button is also found in the StylePicker.)
Technical Note: The list of songs/style favorites is stored in a text file called SongFavorites.txt (or StyleFavorites.txt) in the
Band-in-a-Box folder.
Always save all song settings.
Now all settings are saved with songs, including patches, reverbs, volume etc., so the song will play the same way
each time, without having to set this in the Save Patches and Harmonies with Song dialog.
