BFD gives you your own drum studio,with complete control
of 7 real drum kits plus additional hats, snares and
cymbals. Every drum is recorded from eleven different
mics positioned around the kit and room so you can mix
your drums by blending the mic sources just like in a
real studio.

BFDs high quality drum sample library has an unparalleled
degree of realism. For each type of drum type in each kit
, there are a number of different styles of 'hits'. Each
of these 'hits' is sampled at up to 46 velocity layers,
resulting in drum parts of superior detail and
expressiveness.

BFD was recorded in the drum room at a top Californian
recording studio by professional engineer Steve Duda (NIN
, Pitchshifter, A Perfect Circle) using over ,000
worth of microphones from Neumann, Sennheiser, AKG and
others. The drums used range from the 1920s to 2002, and
include both classics and rarities.

Not only useful as a sound source for your own drum
programming, BFD also incorporates a comprehensive
library of ready-to-use MIDI Grooves with different
styles, feels and time signatures. The library features
both programmed grooves and MIDI recordings of real
drummers, including top UK session drummer Chris Dagley
(Jamiroquai, Lalo Schifrin, Ella Fitzgerald, Eric Clapton
, Chaka Khan).

The advanced, integrated Groove Librarian allows you to
drag and drop the included grooves or import your own
MIDI grooves. You can then trigger them in realtime from
a keyboard or let the BFD freestyle with the auto-shuffle
and auto-fill features.

BFD's humanization functions inject that elusive 'soul'
into your drum parts. The integrated swing controls make
it easy to tighten or relax the vibe as much as required.
On top of this, the sound of the Groove can be further
humanized through the controlled randomization of
velocity and timing.

BFD is perfectly suited to rock, jazz, funk, country,
hip-hop, blues, drum & bass! In fact, anything that may
require a real drumkit, from auto - accompaniment,
traditional song - writing and recording, to newer
techniques such as creating original drum breaks.
