or in standalone mode and you’ve got fantastic real drum sounds, imaginative professional
grooves and an easy to use mixer. You can have that radio ready drum sound in minutes.

THE FULL PACKAGE…
JUST ADD YOUR SONG
But sound is only half the story, what’s the point of great sounds without some killer grooves?
BFD Player comes with 340 grooves created by top drummers that bring the kit to life. All the grooves are fully searchable based on such tags as genre, tempo, and even leading hand, so you can find the right one to fit your song.
And when you’ve got the drums and grooves just how you like them, use the inbuilt mixer to get a pro drum sound. If you’re new to recording there’s plenty of presets to get you started, or if you want to craft the mix yourself you can take over, and even route the drum outputs separately to process the sounds with your favourite plugins.
