MacOSX installation
Software installation (standalone CoreAudio and all plugin versions)
Insert BFD DVD1, or mount the disk image if you are installing from an update
downloaded from the website. Examine the contents in the Finder.
Data installation
You need not install the data if it already exists on your hard drive as a result of a
previous installation.
1. When you’ve installed the standalone and plugin software, run the BFD DVD1 Data
Setup.mkpg fi le in order to install the kit data and various other required fi les, such
as Grooves, presets etc. The installation procedure is very similar to that above,
except you can install the data to any hard drive destination on your system. It is
recommended to install the data to a fast, dedicated hard drive.
2. After this, insert DVD2 and run the BFD DVD2 Data Setup.mkpg program in order
to install the kit data from DVD2. Follow the on-screen instructions for the rest of the
installation.
Please be patient during this stage, as the data installation can take a long time!
Chapter 2: Installation
1. Double-click on BFD Setup.mpkg in order to
begin installing BFD standalone (CoreAudio)
and plugin fi les. BFD DVD1 Data Setup.
mpkg and BFD DVD2 Data Setup.mpkg are
for installing the BFD data (more on this later).
2. After accepting the License Agreement,
select the OS drive for the destination. BFD
standalone and plugin software must be
installed to the OS drive.
4. If you choose the Custom install, it is a good
idea to leave the Arial font installer checked
unless you are sure you already have it
installed. The VST and AU versions must be
installed. Click Install when ready to proceed.
3. At this point you can choose either the Easy
install (all components) by clicking Install,
or the Custom install option by clicking
Customize, if you want to install selected
components. Ignore the next step if you
choose the Easy install.
