- Praise
Normally I don't do this ******, but... great work NI!
It's really amazing to see how things are developing.
I mean in the span of a year we had updates on Kontakt, Traktor, Komplete, Massive x, Maschine 3 amd lots of new libraries. And not even small maintenance updates but updates with new features!
To put it simply: it's amazing!
I think that needed to be said, especially with all the complaints, bashing and paranoid rants about privacy (which is dead, so get over it - it's not worth the hassle and stress guys).
2. Workarounds
I'm a Reaper, Ableton and Logic user.
Logic works fine and so does Ableton (even though I sometimes have to resample certain sound for stability.
In Reaper Komple, Kontakt and Guitar Rig sometimes take ages to load (mainly because Reaper asks if I want Multi-ouput). But what I found out is that if you save them as templates they load twice as fast.
3. Wishlist
There are a multiple nice-to-haves but these are my definitive ones:
- Drag and drop for Komplete - it's a pain in the butt to use your samples in other daws outside of maschine (and that's sad)
- Maschine sampler iKomplete for better sound design.
- Leap in Komplete
- Choke off for sound previews when loading or previewing the next sound (a little bit annoying a times and flow offputting )
- A real slice mode in leap for phrases for chopping up loops and triggering them on certain keys like in maschine and ableton.
- Default left only chanel in Guitar rig (it still works but it's making it a little thinsounding a times in my opinion.
- A writing plugin with gramar rhymes, parabelles and all notes and whistles for daws (as awriter that realy would be a dream come true to not always have to use different websites and programs while producing)
4. Othe stuff
I've been thinking and I've seen enough yelling and bad discussions via the internet and also this forum. I'm really tired of stumbling in rants or see belittlement of beginners (and yes I know they sometimes ask silly questions but so did everyone of us).
I'd really like to see more clear and valuable discussions instead of complaints that should have (and have) their place in bug reports.
I mean overall this forum is still very polite and kind compared to others but some times sudden rants inside other questions or posts are realy exhausting to read (especially the the paranoid safety/privacy ones).
I'm really looking forward to hang out more in the forum and discord.
