BFD DELUXE COLLECTION DETAILED INFO
BFD Deluxe Collection is an expansion pack for FXpansion's BFD premium acoustic drum module. Unparalleled in its detail and recording quality, the Deluxe Collection was tracked at Steve Albini's Electrical Audio studio facility in Chicago. The pack contains some of the most celebrated drums and cymbals of all time, recorded at up to 128 velocity layers in extreme detail.

A new acoustic space and recording environment
The room in which the session was recorded is smaller and more up-front than the Eldorado room used in BFD and BFD XFL, giving the Deluxe Collection an extremely punchy and defined sound. The recording techniques employed also contribute hugely to the sound and character of the pack. Mic placement and processing of certain channels was conducted by Steve Albini, and all mics were routed through the preamps on Electrical Audio’s custom Neotek console, through subtle processing in some cases. The mics used include the Josephson e22, c42 and c609, Royer R122 ribbons and the fabled Altec 150 'coke bottles'. The musicality and definition of the recordings has to be heard to be believed.

BFD Deluxe Collection is ideally suited to any styles of music demanding potent, stunningly recorded drums with a depth of dynamic variation to allow truly expressive playing.

A luxurious array of hyper-detailed drums
As befits a pack recorded in Chicago, the Deluxe Collection features some legendary Ludwig kits, including a Vistalite from the 1970s, with 6 toms and 2 kicks, and a 1965 Clubdate. As well as these vintage kits, several modern classics are provided, such as a Sonor Designer, a Yamaha Pro Tour, a DW Black Oyster Pearl and a Gretsch USA Maple. Finally, a prototype BackYard Drums kit was flown to Chicago especially for the sessions. The Deluxe Collection represents the first time these exquisite boutique drums have ever been recorded.

Also provided are a Ludwig Supraphonic 'Bonzo' snare and a Bison maple piccolo, while the kicks are equipped with felt, rubber or plastic beaters. BFD Deluxe Collection contains 5 exquisitely recorded Zildjian hihats, including 14" and 15" New Beats and a 13" Z Dynobeat. These possess pedal, closed, Ό-open, ½-open , Ύ-open and fully open positions. Meanwhile, a large assortment of Zildjian, Sabian, Paiste and Wuhan cymbals have also been immaculately captured.

Thank you so much, I couldn't be happier. The service was fantastic! I got the digital piano I was after for $500 cheaper than my local store, and it was delivered to my door for an extremely reasonable amount. The delivery arrived on the day I requested. I have one VERY happy daughter. I will certainly recommend Bavas Music. It was a pleasure to do business with you.

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!

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.....

Bavas is the best! I have dealt with them in the past for smaller purchases and when I noticed the deal they were offering on Marshall Mode Four Stacks (easily the best price in Australia) I couldn't resist. The team, particularly Henry, were incredibly helpful and made the whole process stress free. It was a pleasure to work with such a professional and personal company and I will definitely be returning to the site regularly to see what other deals they will be offering.

Professional Service, Great Value & Product Knowledge
Over the past 30 years, I have always found the staff at Bava's Music to be Professional, Competitive & Knowledgeable. On a personal level, as a performer, and a professional level, as an educator, I have always experienced honest advice, quality products and a valued friendship. I can honestly recommend Bava's Music as a leader in the Music Retail Industry. Try them, you won't be disappointed ... I'm still shopping there!
