THE DRUMS THEY DESERVE
BFD has an enviable reputation of helping professional music producers make great hits with the flagship BFD3! BFD has won countless awards over the last decade.
Building on that heritage, BFD Player offers the same high quality drum kits, grooves and mixing options for songwriters and music producers.

And the best news is. It’s completely free!


GET INTO THE GROOVE
BFD Player is easy to use. Simply open it up as a virtual instrument in your favourite DAW,
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.

Even better, we've filled it with pro mixed kits and grooves to get you started. And when you need some new sounds you can expand BFD Player with our ever growing collection of sound libraries.

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.


FIND YOUR PERFECT KIT
The kit piece browser takes BFD Player to another level, infusing tracks with vibrant, lifelike drum elements. This feature enables users to swap drum components with exciting alternatives from diverse expansion packs, igniting a world of sonic exploration.

Craft truly distinctive drum tracks by effortlessly blending elements across expansions, injecting energy and authenticity into every beat.

Whether it's about snappier snares or sparkling cymbals, the kit piece browser within BFD Player expands the capabilities of the plugin over and above the free Core library, adding your character and a unique edge to tracks

WHAT’S INCLUDED?
The free version comes with a spectacular 5GB library, which is not limited in terms of velocity layers nor channels available.
3D kit view with switchable drums.
A simplified mixing experience, with 4 macros to quickly change the sound of the loaded preset.
Groove browser with filtering mechanics.
Has a library of 340 drum patterns that users can drag and drop right into their sessions.
Comes with a collection of production ready presets to get people up and running quickly.
Includes an 'Original Mix' preset that gives users access to all channels.

Anyone know if this will load commercial libraries, or if it runs on Apple Silicon natively?

My music computer is always offline, so thanks for that info (didn't see that point on their website). Saved me a 4GB+ download.
Edit: found it buried deep in the FAQ:
"Can I run BFD3 on a DAW with no Internet connection?"
"Yes, however, an internet connection is required for download, authorization, and reauthorization every 90 days."

Official License Manager has some serious problems. Really lame that offline authorization is full of bugs. Before you authorize, finish your legitimate authorization. This makes less problems for other offline authorization.

that's from R2R readme, so I guess their Patched/Keygen release works and you don't have to reauthorise whole thing again and again.

inMusic Brands acquired BFD in 2020. That's why I didn't try it. We would all be happy if you try whether it works or not and write here.

I´ve tried adding old BFD libraries and they don´t work (original ones with original serial) , has anybody had luck doing it?
  Member 6.03.2021 109 151

old libraries works with BFD FXpansion, try FXpansion BFD3 v3.2.2.2 by R2R or newer FXpansion BFD3 v3.3.1.33 by V.R

It does not work without internet when first installed. It then works without internet.

Contrary to what I first read, it would seem this does have to go online to log in to your inMusic account, even to enable the free core library. After doing this in Reaper, then blocking all DAW access again, it has so far continued to work, even after quitting the DAW, reloading, then opening up a new instance of the BFD Player.


(...But for how long before it wants re-authorizing, I wonder?)

This will not load regular BFD3 libraries. It will, however, load the two currently available expansions for it - Dark Mahogany and London 70's - with more to come.

Old BFD3 plugin can load BFD expansions. This one however is not compatible with BFD3 expansions. It's a new different plugin with its own individual expansions.

Thanks,
but I cant tell if I hate more sound of those two free libraries or MT Power Drum Kit 2.
It sounds dull, flat, lifeless... FLAT, AF...
and I am talking for my preference, maybe to other is gold, for me by the demos, pure trash.
BFD 3 was somehow far better, and expansions were excellent.
Even this GUI I hate more than GUI in BFD3
which was for me like astrophysics compared to simple BFD 2.
Now I am starting to appreciated more and more Groove Agent 5, SD3, SSD, EZDrummer, Mixosaurus (but Mixosaurus is already in Groove Agent 5) and NI Drums...
I hope that upcoming Groove Agent 6 will give the Ultimate power to all those mentioned and give to us Mixosaurus B KIT ...
That would be neat...
AiR addict!

the player is free, yes, but the expansion packs are 30$ apiece. Cymbal sounds are atrocious and sound contrived. At any rate the player is free and not much good without the sample packs. This BFD thing (player or sample paks) is nothing that will pry any of my toontrax stuff out of my cold dead fingers anytime soon....

You can use BFD Player Core Library in BFD3 V.R.

BFD Player core library is ripped version of xxxxx BFD expansion.

London 70's BFD Player Expansion is ripped version of xxxxx BFD expansion.

Dark Mahogany BFD Player Expansion is ripped version of xxxxx BFD expansion.

If you want to know these you can send me private message.

  Member 9.02.2021 1 374

You can load presets, kit pieces etc. in BFD3, you can do everything without BFD Player.

I dont share knowledge in public section anymore.
