I just discovered DKFH online (yes, I've apparently been living in a cave) and I have a very simple, perhaps stupid, question...

Do you program the drum tracks within DKFH or is it just a collection of samples and you need separate software/gear to program your tracks? If you do need separate software/gear, what would work? Fruity Loops? MPC-style sequencer? Etc.?

Sorry to be so dense about this, but despite all the details/praise I read on this, they seem to neglect that basic question... Let me know. Thanks!

I use it, and use it in Sonar. It needs a host program that has soft synth capabilities. You program midi, which then triggers drum samples. It is not a stand alone program. There is someplace on teh website that lists compatible programs. I think it is in a user forum.

Dogman is right, but I'll expand on that by saying that it is for all practical purposes a VST virtual instrument. Pretty much any sequencer software that will support that will work. But like Dogman said, you'll find specifics on the Toontrack website.
 
Thanks for the info, fellas. I'll swing over to their forums and take a look...

Don't they make a version with a built in program for making beats? I think its the one thats less than 100 bucks, not the full blown one. DFH2 or somethin.
Am I wrong? I was actually thinking about going that route for the stuff I'm writing now.
 
I don't think so, They are all pretty much the same, they have their own sampler built in but not a MIDI sequencer.
