At this time, Digital Performer does not support multiple outputs from instrument
plugins. Therefore, the only one you can use as a plugin is BFD Stereo (the
stereo version in DP4 - the mono one won’t be very useful). If you would like
to use the multiple output capabilities of BFD, you will need to use the ReWire
version - please see the section below entitled “Using BFD with ReWire”.
To use the stereo version as a plugin in Digital Performer, do the following after
lauching DP:
• In a new project, add BFD as an instrument track, using the Project/Add Track/
Instrument Track menu option. You will see the various BFD plugin versions
there. Select BFD (stereo out) (stereo).
• The plugin will appear, along with a new track in the Tracks Overview.
Using BFD in Image-Line FL Studio
As long as the installation went smoothly, you should now have three new plugins
available in your Vstplugins folder: BFD Stereo, BFD Groups, and BFD All. To
use BFD, please do the following after launching FL Studio:
• Add BFD to the project by adding it as a channel. Select the Channels menu
then choose Add one…’
• BFD will not be in the list displayed by default. To make it part of the list select
‘More…’ to popup a list of all available plugins. From the bottom-right of this
window click Refresh then Fast Scan (recommended).
• Now enable the checkboxes next to the three BFD plugin names which are
shown in red to show they are newly found plugins.
• Now you can add BFD to the Step Sequencer by selecting Channels/Add
one… then select the version of BFD you want.
• Assign BFD to an FX track, using the Channel Settings window.
• If you are using a multiple-output version of BFD, enable the multiple outputs
(using the down-arrow menu, just underneath the red plugin icon in the top-
left corner of the plugin window). The additional outputs will occupy the FX
tracks after the FX track you specified. For example, when using BFD Groups,
assigning the main FX track to track 4 will lead to the other three stereo outputs
to tracks 5-7.
