Hi, I just finally got into using the Epic Horns package, and I'm utterly confused. I'm sure it's just me : ) but I would love to have some answers to the following questions:
1. When I load the 8 Horns Perf Leg instruments, I can't seem to get a regular patch. Instead, there are little bits of notes that play here and there. So I went to the forum here, and now I'm thinking perhaps I needed to download the "performance tool." I'm not sure what that is, but it seems to be another complicated device that will make my Epic Horns legato patches play properly.
2. But if I don't have this Performance Tool yet, then why does my Opus 1/2 work just fine? The legato horns (4 horns) sound great there. And they're also Horizon series, as is Epic Horns. So, what am I missing here?
3. If I do download the Performance Tool, it seems to involve (according to the manual) several options, standalone, monitor, whatever else. And these all seem to involve further routing to the Performance Tool. And maybe something further called "Tool Templates" which are another download. I'm really confused by this! Here's what I need to do: I need to be able to work in Sonar, open up Kontakt as a VST, load in an Epic Horns Legato Patch, and have it play. So which of all of these options do I need?
Thanks! I appreciate the help! Sorry to sound so dumb, but I'm just a musician, not a computer whiz!
