  Multiple seeding schemes are available for design of narrow-band, short-wavelength FELs. Analysis of such schemes often focus on the amplitude of the final bunching factor b, and how far it is above shot noise. Only under ideal conditions is the bandwidth of b FT limited. We have developed a 1D simulation tool that models complex hybrid seeding schemes using macro properties of the entire beam bunch to assess effects on both the amplitude and bandwidth of b. In particular the effects on bunching factor from using non-ideal beam driven radiators for downstream modulators, energy slew and curvature, and energy spread are investigated with the 1D tool.
