BOMB Expansion Pack: Use For Hip Hop, TV, Film, Latin....
The BOMB Expansion for BFD1.5 and BFD2 includes 38GB of drum samples. While the sounds are from the world of marching and orchestral percussion, they are very useful in any type of music. For example, the tonal bass drums are floor-shaking alternatives to 808 kick drums, for making huge sub basses and storming grooves. The orchestral chimes and timpani are capable of full melodic lines, and are ideally suited to creative sound design and film work. Marching snares tend to be very cutting and are useful for all kinds of mixes. Quad toms are good for alternative tom sounds or percussive uses. The Brake drum is perfect for latin street percussion grooves, and the cymbals are useful for all kinds of applications. The suspended cymbals don't have a cymbal stand to dampen their vibrations, so they ring out longer and undisturbed compared to regular drumkit-based cymbals.
XFL Expansion Pack: Another 22GB of BFD Drums & Percussion
BFD XFL Expansion expands upon the sonic possibilities of the original BFD by providing a broader range of Kit-Pieces, some struck with brushes and mallets, toms with damping tape on the skins, and a kick with a felt beater. The cymbal collection is diversified with splashes, chinas and accents, while all rides include bell samples. BFD XFL also gives you a selection of kit-oriented percussion hits, including cowbells, jamblocks, tambourines, and even handclaps and fingersnaps.
