2:8 Kit page toolbar<br />
The toolbar on the left of the interface provides a number of functions in the Kit Display.<br />
Select<br />
The Select tool is the default tool in the Kit Display. It allows you to select kit-piece slots by clicking on them.<br />
You can also ALT-click a kit-piece slot in order to preview its main articulation (hit, or closed tip for hihats) at a velocity<br />
of 95.<br />
If you prefer, this audition function can operate in a similar way to the articulation Audition strip, although restricted to<br />
the main articulation only. Enable the Left-right velocity-scaled preview support setting in the BFD2 GUI preferences<br />
if you want the audition to work in this way.<br />
If you enable the Select triggers preview setting in the BFD2 GUI preferences, clicking a kit-piece slot window (rather<br />
than ALT-clicking) auditions it as well as selecting it.<br />
Link<br />
This tool allows you to link two kit-pieces together for layering purposes.<br />
To link two kit-pieces while in Link mode, click and drag one of the kit-pieces onto the other.<br />
When the source kit-piece is selected, an arrow showing the link to the destination kitpiece<br />
is displayed between the two slots.<br />
While the source kit-piece is deselected, a small indicator arrow is shown on its slot.<br />
When you trigger the source kit-piece, the linked destination kit-piece is triggered. If it is<br />
the same kit-piece type, the corresponding articulation is triggered. If the destination kitpiece<br />
is a different type of kit-piece to the linked source, BFD2 tries to trigger an articulation<br />
with the same name. If this does not exist, the first articulation is played (‘hit’ or ‘closed<br />
tip’ for hihats).<br />
Removing a link<br />
To remove a link, right-click on the source kit-piece (where the arrow is coming from). A<br />
list of links from this kit-piece are shown in the context menu that appears. Click on the link<br />
that you want to remove in order to break the link.<br />
Linking the snare to the percussion slot.<br />
The kick already has a link set up.<br />
Note that if you want to layer specific individual articulations, you must map multiple articulations onto a single MIDI key in the<br />
BFD2 Mapping page. See section 8:5 for details.<br />
Note Learn<br />
With the Note Learn tool selected, clicking on a slot launches the MIDI note learn wizard for that slot and, optionally, for subsequent<br />
slots.<br />
Please see section 2:11 for a full guide to using this feature.<br />
Clear Kit<br />
Clicking on the kick shows its link destination.<br />
Right-click on a slot to remove a link.<br />
Click this button to remove all kit-pieces currently filling any slots, all kit-piece inspector settings and any current Link setups.
