The installation is really endless :-(
j've put a lot of time to install the equivalent of 9 DVDrom (in fact there are 5 including 4 DVD double layers).
No inconsistency in use, it is configured fingers in the nose lol. I found the manual not very well illustrated (the authors go fast enough on some points which I think may pose problems to be the most inexperienced users). And if we add to that a record entirely in English in the j see that starting to have cold sweats lol.
The thing that I most ennervé c is to have to make drag and drop to copy a directory that was the same for a DVD to another. No they have not been very inspired on this one the grrrrrrrrrr.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

My config:

Athlon XP 2200 1 gig of ram Motherboard Asus A7N8X deluxe.
Serial ATA drive reserved for the audio mounted RAID 0.
This config allows me to work properly (even if I would like to load the mule a bit more). However, the pre-requisites seem a little optimistic ATHLON 500 and 512M of ram.
It is better to count the double ram and have a recent processor (DFH even if n is not hungry he will have to turn to other resources that bulk of the CPU).

But most important:

If you have a small hard drive ..... go your way. The installation is gargantuan space because it takes about 36 gigabytes !!!!!!!!
For BFD (rival) c is less demanding on disk space but it kneels a G4 Dual pro d entry-level attention to the choice then you will do!!

The software is stable and very well interfaced with CUBASE (all tracks are separate and controllable at will in the sequencer).

OVERALL OPINION

I used the for about 4 days and I m still surprises capabilities of the software!!
What I like most is that c modularity. Here we are not confined to a battery type because it can choose its own elements and make the craziest custom DRUM that is !!!!! And if we add to that the choice of microphones, choice of strikes left hand right hand, the possibility of removing the patch, etc ..., it's a very explosive cocktail. this plugin is added 2 more plug: cocktail and percussionist.
You'll understand the cocktail is destined to set a drum type more light jazz club percussionist and percussion.
J have had the opportunity to test BFD is also an excellent product, but two reasons are oriented DFH m:

BFD is too greedy (if you want to work in tranquility with several plugs) you need a supercomputer !!!!!! lol What you require according to the results obtained with the software to change the bike.

Reason 2: having seen a new demo at Apple Expo j I really had the impression that you had to be first computer to use such software as powerful as it is. And as I prefer making music to tease the field mouse that you will understand ...... finally my final choice.

Conclusion:

DFH may be a little less "sharp" in the various settings that BFD offers a tool but still very powerful in contrast to BFD will be used by the machines while allowing less current to run more or sequences smaller without constantly staring at the gauge performance !!!!!

So a great product really bluffing
