ReWire installation
If you choose to install the BFD ReWire version, during the installation process you
may be prompted to set your ReWire options. The main reason to use ReWire is to
support BFD’s multiple outputs so you will probably want to choose ‘All out puts’ or ‘Group
outputs’. ReWire functionality is disabled by default when installed, so enable this with
the checkbox in the dialog which appears, or by using the BFD ReWire Applet in order
to set the options at any time. You need not install the ReWire version if you only intend
to use hosts which support multiple outputs from plugins.
2:3 Authorization
When you fi rst launch BFD, you will need to authorize it with your serial number (also
known as the license number). Enter the serial/license exactly as it appears, starting
with the FXBFD- and including all hyphens. It’s a good idea to authorize BFD using the
standalone version (BFD (CoreAudio) on Mac).
2:4 Installation and Authorization problems
If you encounter a problem, please consult the supplemental electronic PDF
documentation installed with BFD. It is also very useful to look at the BFD FAQ:
