BFD3 is the third generation of FXpansion's flagship software acoustic drum studio: new levels of realism and ground-breaking features in an intuitive redesigned engine.

With stunning new kits with mix-ready presets and modelling technology for tom resonance and cymbal swells, BFD3's audio engine delivers uncompromising detail. The revamped interface has a new mixer and sound browser for the easiest BFD experience yet.

BFD3's all-new library is recorded in two fantastic rooms by engineers including Andrew Scheps, Rail Jon Rogut and John Emrich, giving you a diverse palette of drum tones out of the box. The sounds include a brushed kit and processed drum presets for fast custom kit-building. BFD3 also contains a powerful built-in environment for pattern creation and editing, complete with a range of performances by legendary drummers for effortless production of drum tracks indistinguishable from the real thing.

BFD3 comes with VST2.4, AU, RTAS and AAX64 plugin versions and also as a standalone application.
The VST2.4, AU and standalone app work in both 32-bit and 64-bit environments.

I have the same problem as Lerchiosi; I downloaded the 500MB parts and am missing the last 15 or so files. I guess I will need to try and get it again with the larger parts as I see these smaller ones were not reuploaded.

For mac - permission reset and it works https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/31741/permissions-reset/

maybe the mac lib installer "app" won't run because it sees that you don't have the actual BFD3 app on your mac?

thanks for this release and happy new year

BFD3 sucks, i still prefer SU2 (it does sound good and better straight out of the box, further more there is more choice and its easier to tweak the drum kit sound and arrange the midi grooves on the fly... (toontrack users knows what i mean..)

anyways, it was good opportunity to try out what FXpansion produced, and it is definitely not for me.. and thanks one more time.

good luck!

Well I tried it for an hour or so and I still like Addictive drums better for the ease and the layout the interaction with different dows and for so many grooves,breaks etc. It is not perfect but its fun to work with. I encountered with this BF3 that on some kit the bass was drifting and started to buzz sounding fuzzy also when the groove loops it is very noticeable ...its like it pauses and starts again.Like I said I do not like being frustrated with stuff fiddling around with it... but who knows maybe it will grow on me...I definitely do not like the new cartoon drawing look it seems like some big steps backward in time.In the 80s I wrote to cakewalk yhat their studio looked cartoonish like pencil drawn and suggested for them to make a better more realistic looking console hence now "Sonar" Same with ableton It has a look like wooden blocks in Kid'n'Garden or something.I know the sound is most important but it should come with a good realistic look also...

didn't try it yet, but seems there are BFD3 problems not only for PT users
From anoter forum:
"The standalone version of this appears to work, however using any host (for eg. Reaper) to save a project with the plugin and reload from disk causes it to hang. This did not happen with purchased version. This happens with Cubase as well... steps to reproduce are simple:
1) Use DAW to create new project
2) Add empty track and add Blank BFD3 instance
3) Save project to disk and exit
4) Load project <== Hang "

Anybody is running it without problems?

We have to wait for the Plug-in cracked BFD3 for OSX that's all. I think that Lib. can't be install until we got the BFD3 Plug-in properly cracked for OSX... dunno Put that Lib on your HD and WAITTTT. wink

Tried to save a project in FL 11 and then in Ableton 9, and just like pereira stated above, the hanging issue was present (Win 7 here).

I think that if R2R are waiting from us user clear responses for fixing their releases, it will be better for them to look somewhere elese. Only incredible requests for this or that OS release.
The plugin is clearly titled for win, and nothing says that the library is useful for Mac too.
I start to have a strange opinion about Mac users ....... damn

Anyway, even if I thank R2R for their alwais appreciated and disinterested effort, this release is a total failure and unuseful.
Hope nothing is happening to that team, it was (hope it is) the first on the market

Thank you Sunny
One problem here is that this post is stated as Mc and Win. Which IMHO should never happen, as most people, when pointing a problem do not specify about their system, so it makes things very confusing.

We should post separately for mac and win = 2 posts. (Even with same links)
So comments will be much more understandable and useful.

i confirm it works in sonar,it doesn t work in PT,i can t tell about other DAWs,i was tempted to add the vst to sibelius but BFD uses a lot of ram for a few instruments,idk if that s a bug too,but a normal kit can t take 5 gb

It does not work trying to open the project on SONAR X3 and I also confirm that it crashes STUDIO ONE 2.6 in the same situation, always running under Win7..............Normal instalation (27Gb) (if it can be hepful)

smitty

have you try to repeat this procedure? :

1) Use DAW to create new project
2) Add empty track and add Blank BFD3 instance
3) Save project to disk and exit
4) Load project <== Hang "
  Resident 18.06.2010 278

rascacio,
Yes,and as i said it works,i mean it opens the project and loads the plugin but:
1 loading a decent basic kit requires a lot of ram,i have 8gb with w7 64,and with BFD open,onlt 1 gb is left free;
2 i have to increase the buffer size,thus it s not a big deal if u want to play and record in real time
3 if u want to create your own kit to emulate neil peart or mike portnoy u better be ready to push the restart button on your pc unless u have 16 gb of ram.
Catalyst said BFD has the best drum sounds,actually i think they re just more processed and require less further editing since they re already provided with a reverb,that s the main difference with superior drummer,that dosn t have a reverb,but this is not a minus in my opinion

smitty,

It is not a matter of RAM,,when I call to SONAR or Studio One to open the project , it only has to load a BLANK BFD3 instance (80mb RAM), so.......

rascacio,
opening it is not a problem for me,it s all the rest that s disappointing,superior drummer is much much better
  Resident 25.04.2012 74 7705

I believe the BFD library has more velocity layers than Superior Drummer as well. Some people really gel with Superior Drummer and aren't big fans of BFD so it's really the kind of thing that you have to try out and see how it fits into your workflow. There's also always the option of using both. I haven't tried BFD3 yet but from what I read they made some nice improvements. Still not completely clear as to whether this release has issues or not though. Some members stated they haven't seen these issues on the FXPansion forums and so they must be related to this release. R2R hasn't released a repack and I'm not seeing anything in the queue either. dunno

Pheraps Fxpansion guys found the ultimate protection.....something convincing ceackers that their work is well done.....the rest of the job is made by users complaints rofl

Sorry, hope nobody will be offended, the respect and gratitude for R2R and all teams always maximum wink
