Now imagine being able to modulate that per voice with your fingers....
I can imagine....

This preset starts as a pad, then morphs all attacks and releases, then modulates to the rhythm via finger on mod wheel....

Awesome!

Maybe this helps?
Thx. Talk about being hidden away. :dog:
The UI is the opposite of intuitive.
Yeah, the guy who made that UI, frankly he better go find another job. It's almost sad.

'tis the same guy who did the original Massive UI.

He clearly lost his touch and did not follow up on the latest evolutions then.
Which is consistent, with the observation that NI lost track and spent too much time in Kontakt and Reaktorland. Both of which don't have the best UI either.

Still on the defense parade? I mean, can you actually defend an UI like that?

Earlier iteration:

Tab section looks better and easier to use, funnily enough.

I notice a sequencer tab on this iteration? And modulator 2 looks like a 16 step sequencing thing?

Hah, I didn't even see that one!

I suppose it shows which features were planned early on, but to meet the deadline they had to cut them. Could very well be that updates will bring lots of goodies (but who knows)!

Well, that's the good news. I guess we can expect a sequencer and other goodies later on.

Where is the defensiveness in a statement like "It was done by the same guy who did Massive 1's guy."? That's as sober, objective and factual as it can get. Unlike your posts.

It needs a sound set from Vurt.
no one here could afford me.

Don't take it for granted. It might never happen, but considering NI stated it's going to be a long-term developed product, it's not unrealistic to expect lots of goodies ahead...

No, but NI advertised it as their new flagship and I have a feeling they will still pump quite an amount of cash in it. With regard to sound, stability and cpu consumption they do have a solid instrument on their hands.
