I do think it is more responsive, startup is much faster for me and preset switching is better too

For those offended by the browser discussion, I've started a new thread elsewhere to compare Massive-X's new tag browser with several other ways to go. viewtopic.php?t=581543

TL;DR Is the recent version M1 native now?

Nope.

Yeah the startup is way faster, it used to take > 5 minutes for the damn thing to startup for me. Now it's about 30 seconds.

Post

Five minutes?? More like five seconds here.

Sorry didn’t notice separate thread

I have a crap load of 3rd party presets and it would scan all of them every time I started MX. Now with the latest update it takes about 30 seconds to come up. Apparently you have a different experience and that's good.

yes it is. in a few years it might actually become a user friendly powerhouse. Til then we get an unfinished mess.
Haters gonna hate. I loved Massive X from the first sight and already released a few tracks with it :)
No, not haters gonna hate. I don't hate anything. I'm just expressing my opinion that Massive X is not fully developed and is being sold that way. You're welcome to disagree. btw I've done recordings on a beat up old Realistic Moog and a mid level cassette recorder. People before me used worse, what's your point?

That's gotta be it. Still shouldn't take that long.

Actually, you said that it's a "mess", and that's probably why people accuse you of "haters gonna hate".

MX is not a mess. If it was a mess, you couldn't use it.

Saying something is a mess does not equate with 'i hate it." So much for nuance.
My trailer is a mess i don't hate it, two of my three homebuilt synths are a mess and i love them. And they are all usable.
