FXpansion’s BFD Acquired by inMusic

[jancivil]

I see nothing that's literally "Zildjian 20K Crash Ride". There's a 20" Zildjian crash in Eldorardo Ayotte, Crash 1.
there's a couple other Zildjian 20" in my browser but 'crash ride' (which I vaguely recall), no.
I don't actually have any London Sessions or Eldorado factory kits for some reason.

/BFD London Sessions/Audio/Zildjian/Ride K 20

[jancivil]

that's there.
I think in BFD2 it was tagged Crash Ride.

[cbtw]

Maybe, but this comes up when loading the presets mentioned.

Barrage - Cymbal 1 missing - Zildjian 20K Crash Ride (20")
80's powerrock -Crash 1 missing - Zildjian 20K Crash Ride (20")
Dark Funk - Crash 1 missing - Zildjian 20K Crash Ride (20")
Old Skool Beats - Crash 1 missing - Zildjian 20K Crash Ride (20")
Dancer Kit Beats - Crash 1 missing - Zildjian 20K Crash Ride (20")
Double Kicker - Ride 1 missing - Zildjian 20K Crash Ride (20")
Dancer Kit Beats Easy Listening - Crash 1 missing - Zildjian 20K Crash Ride (20")

I have all of them after loaading London and Eldorado sessions.

Lucky you Seriously, that's good to know and odd that I don't. Is that when you load an "old" kit?

[cbtw]

Yes.

[kperry]

Hmm. I'll go hunting for the individual drums and see if they're missing and it's a kit issue or whether the drums aren't there either.

[kperry]

So...

\BFD London Sessions\Audio\Zildjian\Ride K 20 exists - not sure if that's the one that is referred to though.

[cbtw]

I don't know either, but it loaded without any error, so I assume that it still is the same instrument.
All presets I have done myself are back as I know them. I'd suggest to check if your original FXP presets have been replaced with London/Eldorado download or not. Maybe there were minor changes in the references or they haven't been actualized by the xml files.

[kperry]

"\BFD2\Audio\Zildjian\CrashRide K 20" exists

There's no equivalent in London Sessions, which explains why those BFD 2 presets miss it out.

The other folders under Zildjian match perfectly.

I just checked the London Sessions installer's folder and the above folder is missing there too, so a reinstall won't fix it.

Not the end of the world, but I still want to get it fixed (especially if it works for other people).

\BFD London Sessions\Audio\Zildjian\Ride K 20 has been loaded here from all presets mentioned.
Does it sound different from your \BFD2\Audio\Zildjian\CrashRide K 20"?

Once I realised it's actually called "ZIldjian 20K Ride" in BFD itself, then I'd say it's the same. I wonder what is different in your presets/set-up that means it doesn't load for me?

My "Barrage" preset is still the BFD2 one (\BFD2\System\Presets\Barrage.bfd2), so I wonder if it's just not "updated/imported" correctly? It loads fine in BFD2 (obviously picking up the BFD2 samples). Is yours a BFD3 preset or BFD2?

[cbtw]

It's all BFD2 Presets, imported into the new folders, this is the path on MacOs :

Library/Application Support/BFD Drums/BFD2/System/Presets

[kperry]

Hmm - I wonder why mine hasn't "imported" and is using the original preset. That may well explain things (or it may behave differently on MacOS/Windows).

Thanks - more for me to look at.

[cbtw]

I have imported them manually because all migration processes crashed here.
