composers who require ‘ready-rolled’ but flexible drum accompaniments in order
to facilitate song-writing without interruption to the creative flow, it also provides
convenient access to the very highest quality sampled drum sounds for producers
without access to a real drumkit or good recording facilities.
BFD’s sounds and Grooves are perfectly suited to rock, jazz, funk, hip-hop, blues,
drum & bass… in fact, anything that may require a real drumkit. It can be used
for anything from auto-accompaniment, traditional song-writing and production,
to modern techniques such as creating new drum breaks to use in hip-hop and
drum & bass production.
A note about the manual
We have designed BFD to be as intuitive as possible, to the point where it is possible
to fire it up and be up and running within seconds for instant gratification. However,
it is recommended that you go through the tutorial chapter (“Using BFD”)
which introduces the plugin’s variety of features in a logical and straightforward
way, so that you can make sure you understand all the concepts crucial to the
way it works.
It is also highly useful to be aware of the Appendix, which contains notes on a
number of technical issues regarding performance and troubleshooting.
We also hope that you don’t find the size of this manual intimidating, as there are
several sections (for example, the host-specific Quickstart guides) which you may
not need to concern yourself with, depending upon your level of experience.
