BFD 2.1 Installation and Authorization Procedure

Note that Muse Research does not distribute nor sell this plug-in. Rather, this free download configures your Receptor to allow your previously purchased plug-in to be authorized using the plug-in developer's own authorization methodology.

You must already own the original plug-in to be able to authorize it using this download!

IMPORTANT: You need to have access to the Receptor GUI via a connected VGA monitor or by using Receptor Remote; you cannot authorize FXpansion plug-ins from Receptor's front panel.

IMPORTANT: If you haven't already done so you MUST update your Receptor to the latest version before installing this file to ensure compatibility.

How to install:

  1. Download the plug-in "prep installer".
  2. Copy it to the "<Receptor Hard Drive>\Drop Installers Here\" folder.
  3. Click the "Install" button from the Receptor's SETUP window.
  4. Follow these plug-in specific Installation Notes:
    • Install BFD2 on a computer using the BFD2 disks.
    • Copy the entire contents of the "FXpansion/BFD2/Audio/" folder from the computer to the "Hard Drive/Program Files/VST Plugins/FXpansion/BFD2/Audio/" folder on your Receptor.
    • Run the "FXpansion License Manager" from "Run Utility" on the SETUP page.
    • Authorize BFD2 (Note that the Online Activation wont work since it attempts to open a browser. You will have to send the saved "BFD2.AuthRequest" file and receive a .Auth file back from the FXpansion website before you can authorize BFD2).
    • Load BFD2 and go to the edit view.
    • Click on the "Tick" icon on the top menu on the BFD2 GUI.
    • Press the buttons "Scan data path for new files" and "Trash and rebuild all databases" before loading Kits/Grooves, etc.


Developer: FXpansion
Product: BFD 2.1
Code (SKU): bfd-21

BFD2 is an acoustic drum production environment for your computer with power and flexibility. Extreme realism and sound quality, fast and easy set up, total plug-in integration to your digital audio workstation.

Customized 10, 18 or 32 piece kits are at your fingertips, with full control over tuning, damping, ambience levels, velocity response and more. Layer parts of the kit for powerful hybrid sounds perfect for modern productions and flick through preset kit-piece profiles for quick access to dry, damped and other useful settings. BFD2 lets you configure your sounds like a real drum kit instead of pushing buttons on a sampler.

You can even import your own stereo sample-sets with multiple velocity layers so you can mix and layer your own sounds with BFD2's for experimental kits and 'drum-replacement' production tricks.

BFD2 Highlights:

  • 10 full kits, extra snares, cymbals, and more.
  • Incredible detail: Multiple mic positions, expressive articulations, up to 96 velocity layers.
  • User stereo multi-velocity layer sample import.
  • EQ and FX suite containing everything from flanger, bitcrusher and delay effects to circuit-modelled dynamics, filtering and distortion.
  • Great-sounding presets let you concentrate on writing and playing instead of engineering.
  • 5000+ Grooves ready to use in your projects.
  • Built-in multi-channel audio export.
  • Better management of kits, instruments, Grooves and other files.
  • Easy mapping for keyboard/pad controllers and automation.
  • Electronic drum triggering support including expressive hihats and snare positional sensing.
  • A huge range of powerful new features and workflow enhancements.
