Massive X 1.6.1 update (September 2025)!

Isn't Super 8 very popular aswell?

You'd think that, but it's not nearly as much as the other two.

I would LOVE to see FM 8 updated. It's still the king for FM to me. Given all the recent FM synths, it would be amazing if they remade it with an updated GUI.

I agree.

Second, we’re working on a big update to a much-loved synth product. Can’t say more at this stage, other than stay tuned

The only N.I. synth that is "much loved" here is FM8. Just modern GUI sizes would be all I'd need.

Let's not forget the original Massive...

That is one of the most popular soft synths of all time...

And it still sounds great today

Yes and it has already received an update to modern GUI size options. I hope FM8 gets the same treatment.

OG Massive is mow resizable???

I had no idea. Will have to fire it up. Kudos to NI.

Massive was much loved by me but not played it in ages.

OG Massive is mow resizable???

Yes, 75% to 200% options.

It's pretty fuzzy at larger sizes especially when viewed alongside Spire which is razor sharp but at least now I can see it.......

I don't think its true(og massive can be resized). 1-2 years ago i tried, because heard rumors, but wasnt able to resize it. I have komplete 12 standard + windows 10, and dont think i could do this resize in my environment

I have the OG Massive resized here as you can clearly read in my post so it is most definitely true. Make sure you're using version 1.7.0

How about Rounds? It always feels like a secret weapon when I pick it up.

In the meantime I had to realize - i was wrong.
I had to download the newer native access, to download Massive v1.7.0 - I was not able to download this version from the "older" NATIVE ACCESS.
This is good news. I hope they will do this with FM8 also.... and Absynth also...

With Absynth,there is always the challenge of overcoming the rigor mortis

Did I read somewhere that Absynth was given back to the original developer or something along those lines?

I don't think it was given back to him. From what I've read in a few places, it simply appears NI has abandoned it, without giving the original developer a chance to take it over again. And he didn't seem too pleased about it.

Way less popular than S8...

woosh.jpg is what explains Rounds perfectly.
