MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS
Bounce Switch
This switch is intended for use with hosts that provide an offline bounce
facility. When it is switched on, BFD waits for all data to be properly delivered from
the hard disk before continuing, ensuring that sounds are not cut off before their
natural decay is complete. Please note that the Bounce mode is non-realtime,
and should only be used during offline rendering in your sequencer (if it offers this
feature).
BFD and multiple outputs
There are three versions of the BFD plugin, which give different permutations of
outputs into the host. We made this decision because of some hosts’ inability to
properly change the output configuration.
• BFD Stereo:
Stereo Master output only. This version mixes all microphone buses together with
the Direct Master stereo mix inside the plugin, outputting a single stereo pair. The
Master output fader controls the overall output volume of the plugin.
• BFD Groups:
Stereo Groups version. This version outputs each stereo microphone bus as an
independent stereo output. The Master output fader affects the volume of all buses
in a relative manner.
Output Name
1+2 Direct Master
3+4 Overhead bus

7+8 PZM bus
