Massive VST

[Jay Selway]

Has anyone used it yet?

Just got a copy but haven't had time to install it. Just curious what people think.. :mj1:

It's dreamy.
It truly is a marvel of a tool for audio engineering.
It has almost 500 onboard preloaded presets.
The modulation implementation is well, massive.

* MASSIVE uses the KoreSound™ format, ensuring perfect integration with KORE

* KoreSound™ Browser for easy searching of 420 KORE-configured sounds

yeah forgot to tell u: i installed this thurs. its HUGE. very few VSTis sound like this. Its really up there in the top league. I havent figured out how to program it. it looks mad complex. i need the full version,.

[Shakey]

it has hangups with other NI products.

it causes everything to freeze up

I have problems when trying to load it with battery and absynth.

there will be a patch though to fix it.

absolutely amazing, almost better than FM8

[john c]

havent even tried FM8 yet. Man i got a lot of catching up to do. Whats ur review of FM8?

[method]

honestly i'm more impressed with fm8 than massive so far, but i haven't even made it through the manual for one of them yet, so i don't have a complete understanding to make a judgement...

however, i will go out on a limb and say: both a fuckign BADASS

Massive: The NI ripoff continues.

[method]

shut up dude we're all rich.

[Jay Selway]

Yes, I'm rich.

[NightWatch]

it's a rip at half the price. i hate their begging emails too. i hope they go out of business.

[Shakey]

What is your problem with NI?

I have no complaints, really.

Except for the occasional hangups with cubase, but that will be fixed soon by a patch.

Um. I don't. Native Instruments rules.
