Fxpansion BFD2 8 Bit Kit [3 DVD]

Fxpansion BFD2 8 Bit Kit [3 DVD] | ~ 13 Gb

8 Bit Kit is an add-on pack for FXpansion's BFD2 software drum module system, offering exciting new flavours for your drum productions. Recorded at The Sound Factory in Los Angeles, 8 Bit Kit is the brainchild of S. Husky Hoskulds, recording engineer for such diverse artists as Tom Waits, Fantomas, Solomon Burke, Joe Henry, Sheryl Crow, The Wallflowers and many more.


Unorthodox kit-pieces:
A variety of custom, modified and downright weird kit-pieces recorded with an array of strange and wonderful mics. Highlights include kicks which are detuned and with chains attached; warped, cracked and mismatched hihats; junk percussion; and ethnic instruments such as framedrums, Moroccan tambourines and African hand drums.

A different recording space and mic setup:
8 Bit Kit was recorded in a different acoustic space, which offers a tighter and fatter sound than the Eldorado room used in BFD and BFD XFL, while still integrating perfectly with the system. The mics used reflect the esoteric theme of BFD - such oddities as parabolic ‘Spy Mics’, Calrec Soundfields and mics with a gramophone horn attached were used.

Creative processing:
8 Bit Kit creatively uses BFD’s mixing functions, such as providing processed versions of the sounds within certain mic channels. Many of the kit-pieces are provided in ‘supersized’ versions, featuring more extreme use of processing techniques such as compression, distortion and filtering.

Vintage analog drum machine sounds:
A range of classic vintage electronic drum machines are captured both dry, and played out over a high quality PA system in the drum room. These sounds are perfect for layering with acoustic drums to create a more contemporary sound.
