Unify 2 released

[IvyBirds]

Thanks everyone for the suggestion but again, it's about a VSTi plugin being able to change patches with MIDI commands. From what I can tell Gig Performer sets up audio and MIDI streams to a DAW, but it's not running inside the DAW, I'll take a look, but it as of my knowledge now does not come across like a solution geared towards live performance in DAWs like Live, DP, Bitwig etc. it seems more like a solution to get your live performance recorded in a DAW.

Gig Performer is designed to replace your DAW for live playing. DAWs are great for recording but not so cool as you are realizing for hosting instruments to play live

In the studio it's also great as a way to easily integrate MIDI controllers in your setup for sound design

Gig Performer also includes a remote plugin that you would run in your DAW which then connects to an instance of Gig Performer running elsewhere on your computer

Ableton Live is designed for live use.

You can do tricks to get it to change the current instrument you want to play live on your keyboard with Racks while you use Push or a Launchpad to fire clips etc. but Kore was far more elegant when you got stupid complicated with that. Like everyone is inadvertently pointing out, Gig Performer isn't the solution that Kore was to streamline that process.

Abelton Live doesn't hold a candle to what Gig Performer can do live however for actually playing virtual instruments

As far as a streamlined process doesn't get more streamlined than Gig Performer. You launch it from your computer, then you launch one or more plugins inside of it, then you use your mouse to point, drag, and click your audio and MIDI connections to and from your interface and you are done. Then you save it as a preset for later recall

You combine presets into a set list and switch between them with whatever controls your choose

From there you can make it as complex as you need and can do things no other tool can

You can do all that in Live. It's not streamlined, but you also get the entire Session View experience, including all the things you can do with MIDI and audio in that environment, then there's Max 4 Live, in fact in nearly every way this is a silly comparison. Gig Performer is inferior to what Kore did for my purposes, that's just the cold hard truth.

Sorry is this thread about Gig Performer or Unify 2?

[trusampler]

Ordered, looking forward God willing to an amazing week with Omni 3 and Unify 2

Sorry is this thread about Gig Performer or Unify 2?

KVR is about plugins and DAWs, and any plugin gets evaluated for how it solves a problem one might have or a solution one wants. You 100% have to expect that people will mention Live in a Bitwig thread, Kontakt in a Falcon thread, Falcon in an Omnisphere thread, and Reaper in any thread about anything.

24th here in europa, not yet made available to download. pretty curious once it's available. i love unify.

[trusampler]

I pre ordered it, and it's the 24th and cannot access it either. Anyone get their copy yet ?

Seems really odd on the day of the release its so quiet

[topaz]

My guess is Oregon time.

[tonycore]

or possibly, developer time

[dune_rave]

OK, this is the day. I'm curious: where's my download? Don't get me wrong : the developers are really nice persons, but i'm that kind of naive person, who already checked the download possibility early in the morning....

I am thrilled to invite you all to join us tomorrow at 12pm PDT (West Coast USA Time) for our weekly Livestream event. We will be presenting a total overview of Unify 2.0 and all of the incredible updates from Unify 1.11. We've come a LONG ways my friends - it's been a very intense 8+ months to get here.
We have also started pre-orders for Unify 2.0 from the website for those of you that want to beat the rush so you can simply log in and download Unify 2.0 on October 24th!
See you tomorrow!
