This is crazy!! 🔥 I remember back when SSD5 free dropped and a lot of us felt that was more than enough to work with. I ended up getting the full version during a sale. Then last year during the winter sale, BFD3 went for 50 bucks! But some of use were on the fence whether it's a good idea or not.. It seemed dead and people were unhappy for several reasons, one being no M1 update, empty promises... And some said BFD4 could be around the corner. I ended up pulling the trigger, knowing that it did not work in Logic, but as stand alone and in Luna. Fast forward to now, I'm on a MBA M1, Logic, latests MacOS - and it is working like a charm! LOVE IT!!🤘It's insane the things you can do. 🤯 Always, this morning I went on to their forum, just to look around - and I saw this just got released! Man, this is HUGE!! Not sure I need it, since I have the "full version", but it could be nice on the main drive and move 15 GB SSD5 to the external and get some GB back. 😅 Really excited to give this a go! 🥁
It is definitely up there. It sounds great and comes with all those grooves. Definitely feels like it shouldn’t be free. Plus if you decide to add expansions they’re only $30.
I downloaded it , Installed it, then opened my DAW (FL Studios 21) and the dam thing wont load.. It tries to but the Plug in window is just black.. kinda sux.. i was lookn forward to trying it out
And MTPowerDrumKit, and the recent Hafizhjoys Pop Pink Drums. Also, a Frankenstein of all the great free drum plugins can actually go a long way. It's indeed a great time to make music.
Kinda wish that I hadn't deleted all of the BFD files when I organized the drum grooves from Odd Grooves and GrooveMonkey now. Well, I saved the General Midi and SSD banks anyway.
Great video appreciate your time do you have a video on how to install this as I have tried on Windows 10 and you have the player and then the library in it and it installs Library first having issues thanks keep up the great work
Solid plugin, although it has its quirks with the hihat mechanism. For some reason, closed hihat keys don't choke the previously played open hihat sounds UNLESS the velocity of the closed hihat is GREATER than the open hihat. The only guaranteed way to choke open hihat samples is to play the foot pedal (any velocity). This is annoying when playing this VST with any pad or keyboard controllers.
When was this and what system are you on? I know people have had problems in the recent past, but for me it's working like a charm. I'm on a M1 MBA, latest MacOS. And it's working both in Logic and as stand-alone. Zero issues with their authorization system. I would head over to their forum, from what I've seen it's active and people are helpful. I really love BFD! 🔥
i'm using alesis nitro drum set but for some reason the bass drum has no sound and one of my toms has the sound of an open high hat how can I fix this?
Thanks for the video link I appreciate it. The mapping key worked and I got my bass drum back .The other issue was in alesis drum computer. somehow my tom got changed to a hi hat. I changed it back to the tom sound and everything works perfect thanks a lot for your help 👍🏻
Is it a standalone? I'm looking for a free standalone drum VST. I don't want open it within a DAW. I moved from DAW to standalone for simplicity. I use my Windows PC and midi controller and record on tracks of my Tascam Model 12. I have Velvet Air and a few other VSTs that i have a shortcut on my desktop. I click the shortcut, press record on my multitracker and i'm ready to go. I would like to use a free drum VST the same way playing with a my midipad controller. I tried Mt power drums and a few others, but they can only be opened within a DAW. Is this free drum VST a standalone? Or do you have any alternative recomendations?
The file structure looks the same as BFD3 but i dont see any where in the BFD Player to load new libraries other than the two they currently have for sale for it.
I downloaded it... its pretty cool.... But Im not sure how to drag my toontrack stuff into this program.... the key map thing isnt working... Any help would be appreciated.
It doesn't seem like this software is 100% working yet, i spent over four hours on a chat with inmusic support and they cant figure out why its not working for me and are trying to remote into my computer
I had to start an account first in order for the program to download and play properly. I gotta say, the nothingness kit is worth it for me. I played around with it last night and man... it sounds real nice. It also works with my midi libraries from ugritone and others. That's all I need.
In the menu in the browser you can choose a keymap there, and all of the drums and articulations will switch to those keys. However they aren't fully visible in the software (yet) - you can load the EZDrummer keymap, and things should mostly line up.
I have BFD3 with extra expansion packs connected to my electronic drumkit , but It always crashes when I’m working on Logic Pro X . There was never any software updates for BFD3 , can this player be used the same way and will the expansion packs I got work on this player ?
I dont think the expansions for BFD3 will work with the Player. They do have two inexpensive addons for Player though. And another commenter said this is working on Logic.
My computer is an i3 and it works fine on it. Even with my screen recording software and a separate audio recording program running while making this video it worked fine.
Get BFD Player And more info here www.audiotechtv.com/BFD_Player
When I went to download from the link on Mac OS it went to a page 403 Forbiden.
same happened to me, 403 error

I got the full version when it was on sale for 45 dollars. It’s really good
Seems like a great plug-in. I'll try it for sure. Thanks for the info and for the explanation. Very helpful.
This might take the top spot for best free acoustic drum vsts, because downloading it feels illegal 😂👏♥️🔥
It is definitely up there. It sounds great and comes with all those grooves. Definitely feels like it shouldn’t be free. Plus if you decide to add expansions they’re only $30.
LOL yes its probably my favorite all-around free drum kit. For metal, there might be better options, but this is awesome.
Does it have cross-stick for snare?
I downloaded it , Installed it, then opened my DAW (FL Studios 21) and the dam thing wont load..
It tries to but the Plug in window is just black.. kinda sux..
i was lookn forward to trying it out
You taught me how to use this plugin in one video. Thank you!
This sounds like a winner for me. Fun to play around.☝
I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍
Anyone else get a black screen when the load up BFD and do you know how to fix it? I use FL
Amazing plugin!!! Ssd5 free, modo drum, MT power drum, and bfd player 🎉🎉🎉🎉
It’s amazing that we have that many high quality, free, drum plugins to use. Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍
And MTPowerDrumKit, and the recent Hafizhjoys Pop Pink Drums.
Also, a Frankenstein of all the great free drum plugins can actually go a long way. It's indeed a great time to make music.
i use all you mentioned + jamstix
I can’t just find the ssd5 free, where it is on the webpage? There’s nothing free there, it costs
Help?
how do I add my bfd3 libraries expansions
idk, i have no presets when i opened it
Kinda wish that I hadn't deleted all of the BFD files when I organized the drum grooves from Odd Grooves and GrooveMonkey now. Well, I saved the General Midi and SSD banks anyway.
how i cannot successful active
Que daw usar para activar este plugin?
Great video appreciate your time do you have a video on how to install this as I have tried on Windows 10 and you have the player and then the library in it and it installs Library first having issues thanks keep up the great work
Does the beat pattern conform to the track or do you match BPM with the drum track you want? I'm new to this.
Solid plugin, although it has its quirks with the hihat mechanism.

Cannot get windows version to load. Is it vst 2 compatible?
Dam that G string. Great video. Thank you
couldn't get BFD 3 working.
and they have a very poor authorization system

Player uses a different authorization system to BFD3, and works well. It does require an internet connection however.
Nice funk rock track
Thank you. I had fun with bass track. Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍
Cant make BFD player workin since they ask me to register an alesis device before to authorize😕
Sounds like you got the wrong download. Just google BFD Player and make sure it isnt on the Alesis website, perhaps?
i'm using alesis nitro drum set but for some reason the bass drum has no sound and one of my toms has the sound of an open high hat how can I fix this?
You need to change the drum mapping.
Have you checked out this video?

Where is the drum kit that comes free dude all i can see is the core library when i open bfd player no kit showing
?

Do you ever work on music by others or just your own? Just curious.
I do wonder if this will load libraries from BFD3. That would be nice.
The file structure looks the same as BFD3 but i dont see any where in the BFD Player to load new libraries other than the two they currently have for sale for it.
picked it up few days ago yet to get into the groove 😂
great you can use grooves from other drums.. 👍🏼
I downloaded it... its pretty cool.... But Im not sure how to drag my toontrack stuff into this program.... the key map thing isnt working... Any help would be appreciated.

@@ianmuessigWhat problem are you having??
Tried so many times to install this freebie. Gave up after 4 hours. I'll continue to use modo.
Would be great to have this in a iPhone app!
thank you so much!
I have BFD3 with extra expansion packs connected to my electronic drumkit , but It always crashes when I’m working on Logic Pro X . There was never any software updates for BFD3 , can this player be used the same way and will the expansion packs I got work on this player ?
I dont think the expansions for BFD3 will work with the Player. They do have two inexpensive addons for Player though. And another commenter said this is working on Logic.
yeah? just try to install this thing!
Not actually free. The next day I load my DAW and only cymbals were working and new instance of this plugin has no sounds. More like bunch of lies.
I guess it’s only free for everyone but you. Maybe you used a kit that was a demo and not the free player kit.
The demo playin sounds almost like "Nirvana-Come as you are"
Maybe say the next time say that you got to log in to an account .. Why ? Then the uninstall is not good if you choose you rown maps .. :-(
Are you Muslim Zeina ❤❤
Be advised ...this program takes a pretty stout/fast computer. I have an I5 processor and it is sluggish.
My computer is an i3 and it works fine on it. Even with my screen recording software and a separate audio recording program running while making this video it worked fine.
Check the settings -- there is an option to turn the performance demands down if on a slow machine.
I'm using a 12th Gen i5 and it works just fine
So you can't make your own original beat? None of the beats will work with fast heavy guitars. Boo.
Yes you can make your own beat. It works with midi so program or record your midi in and you’re good to go.
terrible sounding kit.
InMusic? I'll pass.
