BFD2 PREFERENCES
customizing BFD2
10:1 Preferences page overview
Click the Preferences button in the BFD2 Control bar in order to show the Preferences page.
BFD2 contains two types of preferences:
1. Session preferences:
These are settings that are not needed often enough to merit a place on the main user interface. However, they
are the kind of settings that are useful to set and save with each project. Therefore, these settings are saved along
with a BFD2 preset and with your host project when running BFD2 as a plugin. The Session preferences category
is accessed using the Session button in the Preferences toolbar, or via shortcut buttons in the MIDI and Groove
preferences categories.
2. Global preferences:
All other categories in the Preferences page contain the kind of settings involving BFD2’s performance and underlying engine
that you won’t need to change very often. They are stored in a dedicated preferences file in BFD2’s system folder, and are used
whenever you launch BFD2. They are not saved with each project or preset.
