Massive X 1.6.1 update (September 2025)!

[pixel85]

So no new updates to MX until it's rewritten for M1 I suppose?
When it happens we will be already in the era of plugin emulations of 'retro' 2010's plugins emulations, so maybe it would be better to start writing MX emulation just right now?

"Rewritten" is a rather heavy term, and is not the case here (implies doing it from scratch, which is not necessary).

To be fair to NI MX is the only NI product I own that doesn’t work with my Mac Mini M1 Silicon in Rosetta 2 mode.
It did however take me almost two weeks to migrate, check, update and troubleshoot everything.
What was a huge lifesaver for the AU synths that didn’t work was Sound Gurus ‘Unify’.
If you have the time and constitution I can recommend upgrading as the Mac Mini is super fast and super quiet.

Which DAW are you using?

I'm ignoring the argument/disagreement.

A bit off-topic: What did you buy with your £22 voucher? I bought Mechanix for Massive X.

The voucher code isn't working for me, says it's invalid for my choice. I thought I might also grab Mechanix (for £3) in advance of my potentially buying MX during the next 50% off sale.

It was same for me. I emailed them then they replied 3 days with a unique voucher which worked.

Any chance you can PM the email address you used? I can't find one on their site, only an FAQ, a chatbot (that wasn't very helpful, naturally) and a live chat option which isn't available today because it's a public holiday. Cheers!

Just run through the support dialog, and you should have the option to send an email at the end, if you happen to have a different issue than the "standard" ones which are stated there.

I assumed an email address would follow, but couldn't see one, so I went through the help wizard again and this is all I get:

Sure, you can chat with us about your specific question before buying anything from us.

Please note our chat business hours below - you'll be finding the chat option on any product page in the lower right corner, where you can submit your request directly to an agent.

You can also find it in the Account and Order Help category from where you have started this wizard.

There's a box out with a link to the live chat, but it's not available today.

Maybe they changed something. I only can say that it was like I described the last time for me.

I submitted a ticket, but it was tricky to find the option to do so.

They said they do reply to this:
support@nativeinstruments.zendesk.com

I'd mention that you couldn't find the option to submit a ticket.

Looks like they recently changed their voucher terms:

The voucher is valid for Native Instrument’s products at a price point of $49 and above. The voucher is valid for all Native Instruments software products in the NI Online Shop, excluding hardware, updates, upgrades, crossgrades, educational versions, and products already on special offer. The e-voucher is personalized and only for use by the appointed addressee/user. It is not transferable and may not be resold. If not redeemed, the voucher expires on 30 June, 2021. If the total amount of the voucher is not redeemed, the holder is not entitled to payment of the remaining balance. Only one voucher can be used per product purchase. The voucher can only be redeemed at the NI Online Shop. The e-voucher may not be redeemed for cash.

I am sure they did this like a couple of days ago, because many (including me) grabbed the new Massive X Expansions (on the day they were released last week) for $4 each with e-voucher iZotopeNI2021.

The e-voucher was working on the 3 for 2 bundle promotion too, making it $33 for 3 packs. But the individual deal was best where you could have all 3 packs for $12 total with separate orders.

Now, the e-voucher is not working on anything less than $49 apart from usual crossgrades/upgrades/etc. where they have never worked.

Thanks, I've emailed them asking for a new code!

I couldn't see this on the site when I clicked through the various FAQ-style links, so I decided to play ignorant (to what I've seen here) and ask them to honour the terms from the original promotional e-mail and see if they'll play ball.

Thanks for your help everyone
