Detuned presets, so it must sound "analog" is the new "louder/brighter, so it must sound better."

Hehehe, I guess they got what they wanted: Everyone talks about Monark 
With some luck it'll turn once it gets out: Maybe every NI forum/thread will be about Diva then.

Just doing a sanity check here: all of these edumacated replies are about the audio demos, right? No one here has actually played/programmed/worked with Monark, right?
Well, if that's the case, then I'd like to join in: I haven't heard the audio demos yet, but man that synth sounds dope! Awsum NI, you rool!

Yup, that's true. Yet they would certainly post audio demos with sounds that beared resemblance to sounds made with a Minimoog, don't you think? Wouldn't anything else be in contradiction to the statements within the marketing campaign?ariston wrote:Just doing a sanity check here: all of these edumacated replies are about the audio demos, right?

Yes, of course. It's just that I have the experience of disliking so many synths based on the demos, and then completely switching my opinion once I tried them out myself. Maybe the ones responsible for those audio demos did a really really poor job with lots of post-processing and enhancing. Or maybe they mixed up their Massive 2 files with their Monark files.Urs wrote:Yup, that's true.

Typical sandy NI sound in my opinion.
And then it's a >MONO< VSTi-synth (LOOOOOL, ROFL, xD
... sorry, just can't stop laughing about that 
) with rather limited options.-

dont you just love confirmation bias.

Well ... I had that opinion already a few sites ago.
Just listen to their audio demos.
It's a bad joke.
I totally understand it, when people feel insulted by the marketing of that thing.
Making it mono is just that by the way:
An idiotic marketing move.

OTOH, a couple of Intel family iterations down the road, and version of Reaktor 6 with, say multicore 'Core2' JIT compiler and who knows... maybe a Monark2 will released which is polyphonic.hakey wrote:More likely a limitation of Reaktor - a polyphonic version would be far too cpu intensive.Nokenoku wrote:Making it mono is just that by the way: An idiotic marketing move.
But no. Better for NI not to bring it out than to do so but make it mono.
