So, if I have my Surge SE module connected to my browser and am in the preset selection I want to use (or the one I designed myself using the voices available to me through BFD), it will map to my surge module so I can play it not connected to the internet?

I want to play the sounds on my Alesis drum kit when I am not connected to my laptop. Like, I want the sounds to load to my module as a preset of voices.

No, I’m afraid you can’t do that. BFD Player only runs on a computer.

Thanks! I thought so. So I’m supposed to be able to program my alesis drums using the bfd sounds. I will try to figure out how to do that in another thread.

The BFD Player is just that…a Player…not a Full Editor like the Full Version of BFD.  
You can play MIDI grooves and/or connect MIDI Hardware…choose the MIDI map and Play the Drums.  
You can change kit pieces with other purchased libraries/expansions…make basic adjustments in the Mixer and save User presets,however you cannot add/remove effects,edit MIDI Grooves or MIDI Mapping,export or use to make changes to your drum module.
