Don't we all?

Good thing is, they already used Hive for Babylon Berlin from mid of 3rd season. So if Matrix can't live up to expectations, we can publish it as the Babylon Berlin soundset. Unfortunately too late in the series to call it Moka Efti.

(on second thought, the main actor of BB has recently outed himself as a conspiracy theorist and anti-masker, so M4 better be brilliant or I'll bite my ass for making this effort)

What can go possibly go wrong? There's John Wick in it! :hihi:

3 suggestions for the Shape Sequencers...

1 - As a 4th shape option... a simple horizontal line (just drag up and down).
2 - A 3rd edit point for the triangle and Sq... to be able to adjust the triangle towards a saw shape and pulse width for the Sq.
3 - More Mod Target flexibility. For example, if I want to modulate the curve, it can only be done in Shape Sequencer C and only for all segments.

You can already adjust pulsewidth for square shape?

You can also get a straight horizontal line out of square, simple - drag up/down to adjust pulsewidth until it goes to min or max, then adjust the height of the line via the corner.

Yeah, you can adjust pulse width as part of the mousewheel adjustment... but it is somewhat limited in the shapes. You cannot get very narrow, or narrow on the right. It would be more flexible to have PW separate from the mousewheel repeats.

And yes, you can make horizontal lines, but it is slow and tedious. I want a mode where I can just drag a line up and down. Simple and fast.

Sure you can. To adjust PW, click and drag up/down. At maximum or minimum PW you can grab the appropriate triangle and "drag the line up and down" as you wanted.

Ha! I never tried to click and drag on the square, only the triangle. Thanks! :tu:

One improvement I would like to see for Hive.

If I put a Random as source in Mod Slot 1 and a Random as source in Mod Slot 2 and then set Random 1 to modulate Osc 1 pitch and Random 2 to modulate Osc 2 pitch, the pitch of both Osc's stays in sync.

It would be helpful if each random source in a mod slot randomized independently of the other randoms...

By this logic, should I also decide whether I get Hive or not based on whether I agree with your political beliefs? Looking at the type of twitter accounts you follow, I don't.

Though hopefully we can agree to keep these matters separate.

The logic is this: As it looks now, BB will be axed because of the things the main actor blasts out in public. Hence, it may lose its value for us as a marketing tool. Plain reality.

If you can justify for yourself to give money to a company whose people believe in equal rights, ant-racism and such, who donate money to NGOs such as Seawatch, then you're welcome to do so whatever political views you have.

It's something to consider that one day the shoe may be on the other foot, and expressing your genuinely held beliefs would cause damage to your persona and business.

Unless U-he the company puts activism squarely on the forefront, I have no issues with a difference of opinion.
