Product Description
Overview
BFD BOMB Expansion Pack stands for Big Orchestral Marching Band. This expansion includes orchestral and marching band drum samples at unsurpassed quality. The BFD platform gives these new samples total flexibility. BOMB includes 38GB of new samples to expand you BFD experience. The marching snares have huge punch and the quad toms provide an often-needed alternative to normal toms. Cymbals are varied and versatile and will never fail you when you need that extra touch of something different on your track. The big orchestral sounds include chimes and timpani covering one and a half octaves for creating expressive percussive melodies. Each is recorded with felt and wood mallets for even more options. Although these samples were originally created with orchestration in mind, they can be employed in a variety of different musical genres. BOMB comes with four tonal bass drums that can be used to create sub bass lines for thumping hip-hop tracks or bass heavy electronic music. The marching band section includes sharp and aggressive snares, full toms, and unique cymbals. These can be used to add new dimensions to ordinary percussion tracks. As with all BFD products BOMB comes with fresh new grooves including drum-corps, marching rhythms, and hip-hop beats.
