BFD Expansion Pack – B.O.M.B

BFD Big Orchestral & Marching Band: expansion pack for BFD1.5 & BFD2.



BFD Big Orchestral Marching Band is a spectacular new expansion pack for BFD 1.5 and BFD2, delivering a heavy payload of orchestral and marching drum instruments to your percussive arsenal.

The included sounds were conceived to fuel new creative adventures in all forms of music. Its marching snares offer explosive crack and punch, and the quad toms and hand cymbals are great alternatives to standard drum set toms and crashes. Meanwhile, the tonal bass drums rival celebrated analog drum machines for sheer low-end weight and power. The orchestral timpani and chimes, sampled over 1.5 octaves, are great for melodic lines or sound design.

All the sounds are recorded using carefully selected high-end equipment to capture the dynamics and sonic beauty of these instruments. As always with a BFD-compatible expansion pack, multiple mic positions, articulations and velocity layers are provided - most sounds feature up to 50 velocity layers, with many snares offering even higher levels of detail. BFD Big Orchestral Marching Band also includes a suite of Grooves allowing you to inject classic hip-hop street beats, drum-corps and marching performances into your music.
BFD B.O.M.B: Big Orchestral & Marching band expansion pack for BFD1.5 & BFD2

Featuring a diverse range of marching and orchestral percussion, BFD Big Orchestral Marching Band is perfectly suited for all forms of music.

Big Orchestral
The full chromatic set of Orchestral Chimes and Timpani can be used for melodic lines, perfect for film and commercial composition, for complementing classic rock tracks, or for creative sound design. The tonal bass drums are floor-shaking alternatives to 808 kick drums, for making huge sub basses and storming hip-hop kicks, while the Brake drum (repurposed from an old Cadillac) is perfect for latin street percussion grooves.

Marching Band
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. BFD B.O.M.B offers some unique cymbal sounds. A variety of orchestral hand cymbals are provided, as well as suspended cymbals that don't have a cymbal stand to dampen their vibrations, meaning that they ring out longer and undisturbed compared to regular drumkit-based cymbals. These kinds of instruments can offer new flavours for mixes of all kinds, from rock to R&B.

In Your Mix
The use of carefully selected hi-end recording equipment and professional performances from experienced personnel contribute to the exceptional dynamic range and sonic beauty of the sounds, making them ideal source material for a huge variety of uses. The instruments will sit perfectly in your mix, but because they do not have any additional processing, you can sculpt them into exactly what you need for your next musical adventure.


Meticulously Recorded
BFD B.O.M.B was produced, recorded and edited by John Emrich, creator of BFD Jazz & Funk and BFD Percussion. The collection was recorded at Omega Studios, Rockville, Maryland. In December of 2006, John retired from the US Navy Band, Washington, DC as a Chief Musician. In his 20 year career as a premier military musician, John has spent a great deal of time performing on drums of all shapes and sizes for visiting dignitaries and heads of state, including performances with marching instruments. As well as this, John is an experienced studio engineer, giving him the perfect background for putting together BFD Big Orchestral Marching Band.

Behringer iAxe Metalien USB Electric Guitar
I can't compliment Bava's Music City enough for their service. After speaking with a very knowledgeable staff member (Mitch) I ordered the guitar online. Dopey me ordered the incorrect item, but Mitch fixed this without any fuss or bother. The Guitar was despatched promptly and was received exactly as described in excellent condition. I will use Bava's again when it comes time to buy the Amp and accessories. Thanks guys.

Quick, efficient, good value
Telephoned in the middle of the week about a particular Behringer mixer/effects unit. Bava's immediately quoted a good price and said they had it in stock. I told them I'd be in on the weekend to pick it up. When I came in they had it waiting ready to go. Service was quick and efficient. Their prices are good. The selection covers almost everything professionals are looking for. Staff is knowledgable and turned on. I'm definitely coming back!

VERY IMPRESSIVE SERVICE
I cannot recommend Bavas Music City enough! I purchased a Zoom Q3 in December 2009. It arrived before I could check the letter box-amazing! Also when enquiring with a warranty issue they didn't muck around-Mick had me on the phone with Zoom 'direct' to sort out the problem. Everyone should run their business like this. Absolutely faultless. Thank you.

Great for a newbie
I came here to get my first guitar. First thing: they didnt try to sell me things I didnt want/need. Staff=Friendly/Informative Prices are always really good I have had issues with using their website. Layout=Nice BUT: Many links are dead. Tried a few times to search for something... search comes up inconclusive or shows some scripting error. esp. with serching for something using a price range. Maybe get the webmaster onto it.....
