So you'll need Windows 7, Mac OS X 10.6.8 or later, 2 GB RAM and a dual-core CPU at the very minimum.

The system requirements are about what you'd expect for a big, modern virtual instrument. The sample content is 55 GB when fully unpacked, so you might want to put it on a secondary audio drive. A number of digital drum kits are supported natively so you can hook up your pads and play like a real drummer as well as using MIDI keyboards and creating your own custom maps. In either mode it supports up to 16 outputs and has a built-in sequencer for creating patterns and songs, so it's quite possible to use it without a DAW. It runs as a standalone application or as a plug-in inside your DAW, on recent versions of Windows and OS X. Before we get to the details though, an overview.īFD3, like its predecessors, is a sample-based virtual instrument focussed on acoustic drum sounds. Indeed, BFD 1 and 2 were titans in their day, and version 3 looks set to continue that trend of doing acoustic drums really well. Although drums are one of the sounds most frequently simulated in software form, the bar for new products has been set incredibly high so it's always with excitement that we lift the lid on a new version of BFD.

FXpansion has been making innovative pro audio software instruments and effects for some time, but it's for the company's flagship BFD drums that it is perhaps best known.
