In depth user manual :

Before purchasing NDK please have a thorough browse through the manual. In it you'll find detailed information on the samples, the instruments, articulations and find out exactly what's included on the DVDs. There is also in depth information and mapping charts for the HALion/Kontakt presets.

System requirements :

There is no definitive answer to this. NDK is a sample library containing single strike drum and cymbal hits. Technically, the end user could just use a few of the wave files and create a very basic beat. To accomplish that would require little more than the power of a GameBoy.

To get the most out of NDK, we recommend an Intel P2.4 GHz (or equivelent) with 1GB as a pretty good start. CPU power isn't all that important, but the more RAM you have, the better.

Samples files on the DVDs are in FLAC compressed format. The DVDs include installer applications to decompress the files to wav format. Those installers run on  MS-Windows XP/Vista, Mac OS X PPC/Intel and i386 Linux
