10:2 BFD plugin output confi gurations
There are four versions of the BFD plugin, which give different permutations of outputs
into the host. This is due to some hosts’ inability to properly change plugin output
confi gurations. The name of the plugin version which is currenty being used is shown on
the top-left of the BFD interface, just underneath the logo.
Please note that BFD must be used as a plugin in order to have multiple output
functionality. The BFD standalone version always uses BFD Stereo.
For more information on using these plugin types in your host sequencer, please consult
the supplemental PDF documentation installed with BFD.
BFD Stereo
Stereo Master output only. This version mixes all the ambient
mic buses together with the Direct Master bus inside the plugin,
outputting everything to a single stereo pair. The Master level fader controls the overall
output volume of the plugin.
When using BFD Stereo, the Output Options panel is very limited. However, it still allows
you to change bleed levels, and mute any mic channels you do not require. Please see
section 10:3 for further details.
BFD Groups
Stereo Group outputs version. This version outputs each stereo
mic bus as an independent stereo output. The Master output fader
affects the volume of all buses in a relative manner.
Output Stereo mic bus
1-2 Direct Master bus
3-4 Overhead bus
5-6 Room bus
7-8 PZM bus
This output routing scheme can be changed using the Output Options panel, which
allows you to freely adjust the routing of all audio streams, including bleed signals, to the
available outputs (4 stereo). Please see section 10:3 for further details.
