BFD All
All Outputs version. In this version, as well as a stereo output for
the Overhead, Room and PZM buses, each individual Kit-Piece slot
on Mixer Page 1 has its own mono output for their primary direct channels (the kick and
snare feature 2 outputs each – for In/Out and Bottom/Top channels). The same outputs
are used for the corresponding slots on Mixer Page 2. The Direct Master does not have
a stereo mix output as in BFD Groups. The Master level fader affects the volume of all
channels in a relative manner, while the Direct Master fader affects the volume of all
Direct mic channels in a relative manner.
Note that Logic and Samplitude only support a maximum of 16 outputs from a plugin.
Therefore, when using these hosts, the primary direct signal from cymbal 2 and 3 are
mixed together.
When using BFD All, please note that, by default, the Direct mic channels from the
extra Kit-Piece slots in Page 2 of the Mixer will be routed to the same outputs as the
corresponding slots on Page I. For example, kick 2 In/Out will be routed to outputs 7 and
8, the percussion slot will be routed to output 11 and toms 4-6 will be routed to outputs
12-14. The default confi guration is shown below.

*Some hosts, such as Logic / Samplitude, will not allow more than 16 outputs. For these hosts,
Cymbals 2, 3, 5 and 6 will appear in channel 16 by default.
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 (3 stereo, 11 mono). Please see section 10:3 for further details.
