FXpansion BFD Deluxe Collection and Percussion Pack special

BFD Deluxe Collection: 50GB of additional sounds for BFD. SPECIALLY REDUCED PRICE ONLY WHILE QUANTITIES LAST.

BFD Deluxe Collection is an add-on expansion for BFD, BFD2 and BFD Eco, FXpansion's software acoustic drum systems. Recorded with an incredible array of rare and vintage microphones at Steve Albini's Electrical Audio studios in Chicago, USA, the kits include vintage sets alongside modern classics, a boutique prototype BackYard Drums kit, several extra snares, kick versions with different beaters and meticulously recorded hihats and cymbals.

The recording techniques employed contribute hugely to the musicality and definition of the sounds. Tuning, mic placement and processing of certain channels were conducted by Steve Albini. The mics, including Josephson e22, c42 and c609, Royer R122 ribbons and the fabled Altec 150 'coke bottles', were routed through the preamps on a custom Neotek console.

BFD Deluxe Collection's sounds feature stunning levels of detail, with many sounds captured with 128 velocity layers. The up-front, punchy sounds sit beautifully in your mixes before any processing is applied. BFD Deluxe Collection is perfect for rock and metal, and any other styles of music demanding expressive, intensely musical sounding drums.

BFD Percussion Pack: SPECIALLY REDUCED PRICE ONLY WHILE QUANTITIES LAST.

BFD Percussion is an add-on expansion which adds an extensive suite of detailed percussion instruments to the drums in your BFD, BFD2 or BFD Eco installation. Its sounds cover latin, world and kit-centric percussion as well as outlandishly strange junk percussion and kitchenware.

Amongst the highlights are congas, bongos, timbales, djembes, darbukas, udu, ashiko, bodhran, chimes, triangles, shakers and tambourines, alongside esoteric effect sounds like thundersheets, waterphones and bowed gongs. The grotesquely beautiful junk percussion range includes trashcans, saw blades, saucepans and other intriguing household objects. In fact, BFD Percussion literally contains the kitchen sink - in full multi-sampled, multi-articulated form!

BFD Percussion is produced by the team that brought you BFD Jazz & Funk Collection, and tracked in stunning detail in an intimate room for a tight, controlled sound. As always, carefully-selected high-end mics, preamps and converters were used to capture the musicality, lush ambience, expressive depth and dynamic scope of these eclectic instruments, which are perfect for use in all styles of music. The collection also comes with a bonus set of percussion Groove performances.
