Drum sampling has come a long way over the last few years, and software such as BFD3 boasts astounding attention to detail in this regard. Providing your eyesight is up to the task, everything is perfectly usable, it’s just that there is a lot of it and finding your way around takes an investment of time - be prepared. The level of control might, to some new users, seem quite daunting, and this is perhaps not helped by just how compact (er, small) some of the controls, buttons and settings are. Indeed, in a review of this length, it is very difficult to do justice to exactly just how many options this right-side pane can cough up as you work your way through the different Agents and the various tabs on offer. If you like to get down and dirty with your drum-machine samples, you can certainly do it here.

Here you get a range of editing options including loading/replacing samples (including your own samples), adjusting the pitch, pan, filter, time-stretching, loop points and amplitude envelope plus a whole lot more. You also get to pick between two different snare and kick sounds. For example, under the Edit tab with the Acoustic Agent you get a drum kit graphic that allows you to tweak the settings for each kit piece, including the amount of room/overhead mics and the bleed. The options available to you in the right side of the display depends upon whether you have the Pattern or Instrument tab selected in the left pane and, to a certain degree, upon which Agent you have in the currently selected kit slot (the features offered are different for each Agent). By default, the instrument pads for each kit slot respond on MIDI channels 1 to 4 while the pattern pads respond to any MIDI channel, but there is plenty of flexibility here and even a completely separate virtual MIDI port that can be activated for the pattern pads if required. Pattern view provides you with a similar set of eight banks/16 pads per bank where you can store MIDI patterns to be triggered, and these also apply to the currently selected kit slot. In Instrument view you can explore, edit and play whatever samples are currently assigned to any of the eight banks of 16 pads for the currently selected kit slot.
The album features seminal recordings from the artist’s coffeehouse era (Gerde’s Folk City, 1962), his mythic 1963 breakout concerts at New York’s Town Hall and Carnegie Hall, a duet with Joan Baez from the historic March on Washington (August 28, 1963), definitive performances from his European and world tours of 19, incandescent moments from the 19 Newport Folk Festivals and more.Beat Agent offers very detailed sample-editing options, including up to eight velocity layers.In the ‘pad’ pane, you can toggle between Instrument view and Pattern view. Most of the performances on the album have been previously available only on the extremely limited edition “50th Anniversary / Copyright Extension” albums (three highly-collectible compilations–released in 2012, 20–of rare early Dylan recordings).Īcross two discs-worth of music, Live 1962 – 1966: Rare Performances from The Copyright Collections chronicles Dylan’s transformation from groundbreaking acoustic “folk” artist to iconic force of pop culture. Bob Dylan’s Live 1962 – 1966: Rare Performances from The Copyright Collections is now available digitally or as a 2-CD set.
