BFD Jazz & Funk Collection
Welcome and thank you for purchasing BFD Jazz & Funk Collection! We hope you
enjoy working with it as much as we do. Please read through this manual carefully.
The installation process and the Hit types used in this expansion differ from
previous products in the BFD range. Reading through this manual will ensure that
you get the most out of the sounds.
The data on the BFD Jazz & Funk Collection DVDs is compressed (using a zero-
loss algorithm), to facilitate the delivery of the highest possible level of detail.
The latest version of BFD v1.5 is required in order to use BFD Jazz & Funk
Collection. Please make sure it is properly installed before you proceed.
Installation
Each DVD contains an installer specific to the contents
of that DVD. Please follow these steps for each DVD !
Special note for Mac users: during the installation routine, you may be asked for
your Admin password. You must have Admin rights in order to install this software.
1. Insert the DVD and run the BFD Jazz & Funk Collection installer.
• Windows:
If the installer does not auto-run, explore the DVD contents in My
Computer and double-click BFD JNF Win Setup.exe to run it.
• Mac:
Open the DVD contents and double-click BFD JNF Mac Setup.
2. Follow the on-screen instructions until the ‘Installation Path’ stage appears.
3. Select your BFD folder: this is the
folder which contains the Data
folder in which the sample data
resides. Make sure you select the
BFD folder, and not BFD/Data
or any other folder. If you do not
select the correct folder, the new
sounds will not be available within
BFD. Click Next when you’re
ready to proceed.
4. You now need to specify the
Installation Size: you can specify
the detail level and which Kit-
Pieces to install.
• Firstly, select a detail level. BFD
Jazz & Funk Collection can be
installed with one of three detail
levels, determining the maximum
amount of velocity layers (and
consequently affecting the hard
disk space usage) that are
installed for each Kit-Piece on
the DVD.
Higher detail levels have a higher impact on system resources.
Small: a maximum of 0 velocity layers will be installed
Medium: a maximum of 40 velocity layers will be installed
Large: a maximum of 18 velocity layers will be installed
