the desired sub-directories over to it. Alternatively, you can copy the whole
manufacturer folder, and delete the parts you don’t need. If in any doubt, make sure
the directory structure in your hard disk’s
BFD folder matches that on the DVDs.
When you next launch
BFD
, the newly-copied BFD XFL Kit-Pieces will be available
to you within the
Kit-Piece Selector
panels.
Again, you will need to compile your own kits if you choose to install BFD XFL Kit-
Pieces selectively in this way.
SOME NOTES ON THE NEW KIT-PIECES
BFD XFL contains some new types of Kit-Pieces.
Kit-based Percussion
BFD XFL includes cowbells, jamblocks, tambourines, handclaps and fingersnaps
(please note: because identical microphones, gain and other studio settings were
used as all the other Kit-Pieces, the claps and snaps can seem rather quiet). These
can be found in the Cymbal
Kit-Piece Selector
panels.
Hyper-detailed Hihats
Included are hihats with ¼-open and ¾-open positions in addition to the usual
closed, ½-open and open positions. Understandably, these are rather large and
lead to a sizable RAM overhead.
Snares, Toms and Cymbals played with brushes and mallets
Some snares, toms and cymbals have brushed versions. Also included are some
toms struck with mallets.
