Absynth 6 Audio Units fail Logic Pro Validation
I was so pumped to get Absynth 6 as It was one of my favorite synths 15 years ago. Thought I'd try the demo to be sure, but the Audio Units fail Logic Pro's plugin validation and it is unusable. Is it Apple Silicon chips that they don't support? Please somebody help!!

Can't Create or Edit Presets AUTHOR / BANK NAME/ COMPANY
I just purchased the latest version of Absynth 6.0.3 I had been playing around with the demo for awhile and liked it. I started playing with it and went to export a preset and couldn't for the life of me figure out how to edit the existing Author / Bank Name / Company and add my own. I then tried making a patch from…

Absynth 6 Multichannel / Surround
Almost every Absynth fan knows, Absynth 5 came in two variants: a stereo and a multichannel version. You were able to configure the behavior of the audio channels right within the plugin and then route all the channels through your DAW. Looking at Absynth 6, there still a multichannel settings dialog, but it does…

Absynth 6 Doesn't Boot in Standalone and crashes DAW
I've reinstalled the synth, reinstalled Ableton 12, updated C++, made sure all drivers OS and devices were up to date and it does absolutely nothing when I try booting it up. I've got a support ticket open but thought I might post here since they said it may be a while before they get back to me

Can't get Pan LR macro to work (ABS5-1405)
Not sure if I'm doing something wrong but when I adjust the Pan LR macro at the bottom of the screen (macro page 2) it doesn't seem to do anything. I've tried loads of patches including factory presets but it doesn't have any effect on any of them. The other macros are working fine

BP Macros for an envelope breakpoint: Velocity and Aftertouch seem not to work
As the title says: Setting a BP Amp or Time macro to Velocity or Aftertouch (and an appropriate scale and breakpoint position) does not have any effect to the envelope. All "real" MIDI control changes do. I did an experiment for clarification and created a patch with Absynth 5 including a pitch envelope where I have the…

Feature Request Absynth 6: virtual keyboard
I would like to request the addition of a virtual keyboard to Absynth 6 that can be turned on and off per what's available in Absynth 5 in the standalone and VSTi versions. Previewing/auditioning sounds is ok but limited, so it'd also be useful to actually play specific notes, especially if you don't have a MIDI controller…

Downloading Absynth 6 without using Native Access
I've just bought Absynth 6 and have registered it with Native Access. I understand the reluctance to buy given the recent new, but if we don't continue to support N.I. they may well go beyone preliminary insolvency - or at least that's how I see it. Surely none of us want that? Anyway, how do you download the Absynth 6…

Absynth 6: another rip-off for long-standing customers
Hello everyone, I have to report and complain once again after the Maschine issue, its update, and NI's lack of investment in it (the promised major updates never arrive, except for small, drop-by-drop updates). The exact same thing happens with Absynth. The usual losers are loyal customers who already purchased Absynth 5,…

Double clicking a dot in the preset explorer doesn't work correctly
If you mouse around the new preset explorer and find an interestingly named or described preset you can't double click on it to load it. As soon as you click a dot the explorer moves the 'map' so the next click lands on some random preset. Could the map stay stationary until after the system double-click time has expired?…

Custom Installation of Absynth 6
I have the HDD in my Dell PC partitioned into C: for the OS, D: for Apps, E: for Data. I want to install Absynth 6 on D: so I can protect my C: with virtualization app Shadow Defender. Absynth 6 does install on D: but the Absynth 6 Content folder insists on installing in C:\ProgramData. Is there a way to edit the…

Absynth 6.0.1 -- Absynth 5 third-party expansions not available & import presets function needed
I have a number of third-party Absynth 5 expansions. None of them are showing up in Absynth 6.0.1. I think an import function is badly needed. If there is a way to get those Absynth 5 third-party expansions into version 6 I'd sure like to know. Thanks for releasing an update to Absynth and for your consideration of my…
