FXPansion BFD Percussion Expansion Pack for Mac and PC (2 dvds)

Recorded at Omega Studios in Maryland, USA by the
same team that brought you BFD Jazz & Funk Collection
BFD Percussion's sounds provide a wealth
of creative sonic possibilities when manipulated by
BFD's multi-channel drum mixing, groove-playing and
audio routing technology.

Lush and expressive
With this being a BFD expansion pack, everything is
recorded with deep expressive detail: up to 46
velocity layers, multiple articulations and multiple
mic channels. The room is small and intimate: tight
and controlled but with a lush sense of space,
something which is captured faithfully in the stereo
ambient channels.

The recording chain was set up for maximum detail,
precision and transparency: Royer ribbon mics and
Neumann condensers, amongst others, were recorded
into Digidesign HD converters through API, Focusrite
Red and ISA115 preamps. The aim was to capture the
diverse instruments as naturally and accurately as
possible.

A diverse range of pieces
Amongst the highlights are congas, bongos, timbales,
djembes, darbukas, udu, ashiko, bodhran, chimes,
triangles, cowbells, jamblocks, woodblocks and
temple blocks! A variety of shakers and tambourines
are also included, along with esoteric effect sounds
such as thundersheets, flexatones, waterphones and
bowed gongs.

Additionally, a grotesquely beautiful assortment of
junk percussion opens up new creative avenues:
plastic and metal trashcans, saw blades, stiletto
heels, buckets, spoons, saucepans, watercoolers and
a plethora of other random household objects of
sonic interest.

Brand new grooves
Finally, a library of Grooves provides ready-made
inspiration and creative ideas for using the sounds
in your music. A variety of world and general
purpose Grooves are included, along with example
kits and programs.

BFD Percussion was produced by John Emrich, a
musician and engineer who lives and breathes drums
and percussion. The paramount philosophy behind the
collection was to make it as musically useful and
inspirational as possible, and to remain true to the
expressive possibilities and sheer beauty of these
complex, organic instruments.
