Native Instruments Massive X Synth - Sequel to Massive (Out Now!)

[collider]

Ill make a follow up video in the morning addressing this. I think square waves would be more obvious as you cant simply filter out the aliasing within the oscillator close to nyquist. Ill also compare the behavior of frequency sweeps in Massive X with Serum. It will be more obvious then.

Just stop making videos at ALL. I'm sorry but they really suck.

Hey there guys, please forgive me if this has been mentioned already but the lower octave (from C0 - B0) makes no sound on my demo version of Massive X, is this a demo limitation or something else? I can confirm my setup is working ok and that other synths play correctly in this octave.

Thanks heaps

I wonder why there were sounds from the beta dropped that were actually pretty good?

Only the highest quality patches were selected for the release.

Well, this sounds like a very commercial answer (are you being paid for this? ) but it looks like someone has been very busy deleting or omitting patches that were actually pretty good.
I won't go through the trouble to pinpoint how the renaming was done but it's fair and objective to state that nice presets and even entire categories were deleted.

Can somebody tell me why in such situation I should care that there's aliasing 30dB below dynamic range that human can perceive?

Well in certain conditions, you're probably gonna hear it. Even the old Massive has a "dirty" sound btw, but it doesnt mean its better or worse than other synths.

The thing is I don't hear any nasty aliasing artifacts even with very fast modulations and distortions the sound is super accurate (not spoiled by artifacts). In battle ears vs visual analyzer, ears won for me.

Sorry if it sounds commercial, wasn't the intention (and I'm not paid to say these things).

It's just that a looooot of patches from the beta weren't ready in time (macros unassigned, modulations not fully fleshed out, etc.), so they had to cut a fair number of them. My assumption is that this is also why they made a separate "product" in Native Access that is just the factory presets - so they can update patches separately from the main plugin. And there will be updates with more patches down the road - so that's good.

You need to disable the remote octave. Click on P1/2/3, a grid button will show, click it. Then disable remote octave in the upper half of the GUI.

MX desperately need some bread and butter sounds. EPs, pads, leads that can actually be used in productions. Too much emphasis on avantgarde, experimental stuff.

Hoping for a top notch pro sound bank to show off what this synth truly can do.

Same here in the full version, my understaning is that this octave is reserved for keyswitches of some sort. Is this correct?

[EvilDragon]

Yes, but you can disable them as I've mentioned.

Avantgarde and experimental patches ARE the ones which usually show what a synth can truly do (or what it does differently from any other synth), no?

NI made the "mistake" to have the performer thingy active on the default patch. Go to the modulators on the far left side, click on the "arrangment window" of the performers so it shows up in the GUI and there click the little on/off button.

You just contributed to fake news and misinformation on the internet. You should do the necessary research first before making videos on more technical aspects otherwise it’s misleading.

Thank you so so much! I struggled to find it to be honest, so to clarify in case anyone else can't see it, click P1 and then click the little icon to the left of P1 which will show the remote launch configuration on the top of the window, then uncheck "Remote".

That's a bit of a bad default, but really glad that's all it was Thanks again!!!

did i miss something on wavetable selection, i have to click to open the menu, select my wavetable and then click again to close the menu ??! it is really anoying..

the fx are really interesting, best part of the synth for me.

(i hope updates won't follow the same behaviors than maschine update...)
