Yeah I've waiting for the next komplete as well and just playing with the demo from time to time. No rush and not short on synths.

New cdm article on Absynth 6.1.
Good article for everyone and those who might be on the fence.

Definitely not on the fence, just waiting for the Komplete update (or a 50% off sale) like I suspect many are!

Especially with the dark cloud of restructuring looming over NI's head!

Yeh, but even with that looming, quietly in the background NI stuff is getting better and better, there have been great updates already (and more coming) and I personally have every confidence in NI's survival...My S88MK3 hopes so anyway!

Yes, if of some odd reason NI is obsoleted, so with Absynth then.

I would hope they would let Brian Clevinger keep it going this time

Next upgrade is FM8. That would be a sight

.. as long as he has zero say in the UI. Then I'd be fine with it.

Nah man, we need 7 diamonds to tweak each number.

Now just need the 50% off sale!

TBH I will probably just up[date Absynth when its on sale, I don't really need any more 'stuff'', havent had chance to look at half the stuff last time I upgraded Ultimate!

Tried it yesterday. I was really hoping they "fixed" the mod system. But alas...it is still as terrible as it was on v5 and earlier .. bummer

I was really excited about the MPE addition; but, playing with the demo, I can only get Slide or Press (mpe aftertouch) to have minimal effect.
