D-lusion DrumStation DT-010

- Installation is it without problem?

The software installs itself, do anything, as with most Windows software. This software works as a standalone: ​​no possibility to run as a VSTi my knowledge.

- The manual is clear and sufficient? ...

Online help is only available in English, is an HTML page. It is relatively clear, but you have to read the entire text to understand all the features because there is not always self-explanatory graphical ... The doc is not always a super Retailer Manir gnrale.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

The software is very simple, it should work on the computer and other Nintendo-nathan black and white.

The software is stable.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two days. If the interface does not look it is only to remind us that appearances can be deceiving ... Among the features, we first find the two strong points:

- Bank of the intgre TR909, TR808, TR606: bass, boom-boom, snare, hit-hat, clap, cymbals, fills, toms, etc. .. everything is to the pter-drum kit you want to sail,

- Possibility to import its own percussive sounds in wav format ... which means that this is not a soft percussive synth virtual (this is also not its function Premire) but a real box rhythms!

... And also ..:

- Possibility of CRER drum sounds directly through the processor (virtual drums, the Drumatic)

- Possibility to import loops to run behind the beat, cut the loop, in real time edition .. woohoo .. trs tendency everything!

- Squenceur Intgr ...

- Choice of percussive effects for each sound: saturation, reverb, flange .. (but the effects are pretty basic),

- ... All for zero-cus, not a single dime .. the phrase "tomorrow is shaved gratis" starts with the day to taste d-lusion Drumstation.

In short, D-lusion DEFINITIONS In Drumstation is certainly less complex than software like paying Native Instruments Battery 2, but it also has the strength of D-lusion Drumstation: a simple, efficient, intuitive, and especially : fun.

Try to adopt it: this is the program for IDAL to practice drum kits Orient House / techno / dance when beginners.

The only real limitation is that the program runs by itself, therefore not possible as the VSTi will integrate a high-end squenceur as Sonar, Cubase, Acid, etc.. o one could make other treatments output. Too bad also that we can not return values ​​numriques to move the buttons, it would have more convenient t ...

Finally it is free then we will not quibble: d-lusion is not an illusion, it's a real gift: p

Well

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

The software does not really have a weakness for free!

OVERALL OPINION

I love this software FREE!
the installation was done alone as a great, everything is quite simple, however I have a concern which I hope to meet you: I can not do programming, meaning that I can not in response to two different rates without making a loop .... in fact I do not understand the menus at the top, bank bank range, position and steps .... I'm sure my problem is answered here but I well I can not use those menus ...
it's quite complicated I admit, if someone could help me!
here is my address msn tostakills77@hotmail.fr
thank you!

Implementation 10, there is simply nothing to do!

the manual, not terrible, in English and a ball like me in computer music, the software would need a good tutorial (please)
For example, I do not understand what follows, so that I would love an explanation for the beginner:

The Sequence Pattern Into The Single arranges a complete song. it contains oven banks (A, B, C, D) EACH consisting of 8 patterns and 3 different play modes.
pattern

bank
a bank contains eight pattern. EACH bank in, you-can select different settings for the drums. If The bank IS switched, so are the drums and Drumsets For the selected banks. In A Whole, You Can Use 4 +8 = 24 pattern in a song. to select a pattern, first select bank appropriée The year Itself Then The pattern (eg bank b, pattern 3).
You Have THE FOLLOWING play modes available in The Sequence: single mode pattern
Only the current Pattern Is Played in a loop.
bank fashion
Inside the pattern only current bank are Played in a loop. The Bank You Can select range and start.
Sequence mode

programming a sequence
Make Sure The Sequence IS stopped
switch to sequence mode

The location field Shower the actual position in The Sequence
You Can Choose a bank and Pattern For Every Position
while playing, the Position Will Be Counted from 0 to sequenced steps & the Corresponding pattern for the Position Will Be Played.
follow me switch
Switch this option Is A Very useful while programming patterns Played When The IS sequence. If The switch IS activated, displays The Sequence The Sound That Is Currently Played. If you want to edit a pattern, just turn it off and The Sound Will continues to You Can Focus on The Current editing pattern.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

The orninateur is an old Compaq Presario original Pentium 4 (of Rcup) 128MB RAM, sound card and Intel integrates the software works very well on xp sp2. stable without pb.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two days, I love her (well ramplifi sr) and banks DIFFERENT models of toms, cymbals, bass drum etc. offer many possibilities.
I tried Little Drummer Boy (I have not liked ...) and for its price (free Tatale) I have not found better!
