An expansion pack for BFD3 with a collection of Yamaha artist signature snares to swap into your kits.

BFD Signature Snares Vol. 1 offers the usual high levels of detail with multiple channels and articulations and contains five Yamaha snares, including the signature models of Roy Haynes, Dave Weckl and Mike Bordin as well as a bamboo snare and an FHP fibreglass snare. They were recorded at Omega Studios in conditions similar to BFD Percussion and the Mapleworks kits in BFD3. Their tight, precise and dynamic sound works well in a huge variety of settings, and multiple beater versions such as brushes, hot rods or mallets add extra versatility. In BFD3 the snares also offer a rim click articulation and a half-edge articulation for electronic drum positional sensing.
