With a focus on individual outputs (to make editing easier),
we will take a look at BFD3’s mixer window.

Expanded mixer window

Most of the mixer windows parameters work in the same way as a DAW;
because of this, those who are used to a DAW should have an easy time navigating.

拡張ミキサー

By clicking on the expand button in the red box,
you can make smaller edits to each individual mic.

Multiple mics are prepared such as kick, snare, and ambient.

You can edit volume and even add effects from this window.

AUX track

By using the “AUX track,”
you can organize multiple tracks, and use functions such as “sends and returns.”

AUXの追加

Click “+” and select “Add Aux Channel.”
With this, you can add an “AUX track.”

AUX割り当て

Each kits output is found in the area in the red box.
From here, we can send the sound to the “AUX.”

By sending multiple sounds to the “AUX” track,
you can control the sounds with 1 track.

About AUX





Individual outputs with MIDI

パラアウトMIDI

Even with this type of MIDI setup, you can send the kit parts to individual outputs.

パラアウト

Similar to  “AUX,” change the output from “Mono” to “Stereo.”
We will use separate outputs for each part of the kit.

モノとステレオ-1

How to use  Stereo / Mono

  • Left : If the meter is 2 bars「Stereo」
  • Right : If the meter is 1 bar「Mono」

All that’s left to do is setting up your DAW.
