BFD Stereo or BFD Groups, and are greyed out when using the BFD All version<br />

of the plugin, as the individual mono Direct outputs do not need to be panned.<br />

The kick and snare Kit-Pieces each have some special controls for the Direct bus.<br />

• Kick In/Out:<br />

This control adjusts the blend between the mic placed inside the kick drum, and<br />

that outside. If you click the button, the phase of the internal mic is inverted.<br />

• Snare Bot/Top:<br />

Using this control, the blend between the mics below and above the snare drum<br />

can be adjusted. If you click the phase button, the phase of the bottom mic is<br />

inverted.<br />

3. Bus mixer area<br />

This area allows easy control over the overall<br />

mix. The Direct and each individual ambient<br />

bus each have their own volume fader here,<br />

as well as Solo and Mute buttons. In addition,<br />

the ambient mics have two extra controls:<br />

• Distance:<br />

This parameter allows you to virtually<br />

manipulate the distance of each ambient mic<br />

set from the drumkit.<br />

• Width:<br />

This control adjusts the stereo width of each ambient mic bus. It ranges from<br />

mono (hard-left) through stereo (centre position) to enhanced stereo (hard-right).<br />

Extreme settings of enhanced stereo should be used carefully as they can add an<br />

out of phase component to your mix.<br />

The Distance and Width parameters for each ambient mic bus are illustrated by a<br />

moving set of mics which can be seen in the main Kit Display.<br />
