the attack on Init preset is locked on 232ms
Hi, on Massive X the Init-Massive X preset is locked on 232ms for the Attack. When I slide the mouse on the 2 Attack plot, the value change but return to 232ms when I release the mouse. I've reinstall the factory Library. I saw on a Massive X tutorial on YouTube that the init preset is loaded with the Attack plot on 0,5ms.…

Latest 5 Massive X Expansion Packs advertised without Previews
Just noticed that the newest Massive X Expansion Packs have just been advertised. Unlike all other previous expansion packs, these new ones do no have any audio/video previews. Have Native Instruments acquired such self-levitating hubris that they now no longer feel the need to even allow customers to preview their…

19 Custom Darkwave/Cyberpunk Presets
I may have slightly misunderstood what was being asked of us with the little Massive X Preset challenge/competition. I actually ended up creating a short 30 sec composition with nothing but Massive X presets all designed from the ground up. There ended up being 19 in total. I have included the presets in the zip file along…

Cinematic Suspense Pad (Massive X Preset)
Description: This preset makes creative use of Massive X's flanger effect to create eerie and horrifying ambience ideal for cinematic action games.

3am Collection
A collection, rather than a single preset. 3.52am meets the 80s - turn the atack right down, and you've got a really nice pad to bring up in the mix. Cloudbursting - Gives me deep house, old-school D&B vibes. CrushingBass - Arpeggiated, dirty techno bass. Dirty Pillows - Disruptive soundscape to layer breaks, or…

Massive X looks in wrong folder for user presets
I used to have my user presets in folder A. Now I have them in folder B. When I click "Show user content folder" in the Massive X menu, it opens folder B. But somehow, Massive X is still "looking" in folder A for my presets as evidenced by the error when I try to load any of them, which says: "Unable to load preset file…

Massive X: Macro knobs unresponsive
I'm having difficulty with the macro knobs. The existing macros work for presets. But I find if I make a new macro (like macro 9), it's unresponsive. I drag the little red number beneath 2 controls. Let's say wavetable1 filter and amp level as an example, although it doesn't seem to matter which one I choose. If I move the…

Jumping Spider Lead (Massive X Preset)
Preset Idea: The plan was to create a playable lead with tempo-synced movement. A gritty, growler with panning and oscillators doing battle. Animator adds vibes, turn the sync to 1/8 for more madness. Preset: https://us.v-cdn.net/6034896/uploads/F7QFZ6SXUS1V/jumping-spider.nksf Demo:…

Nostalgic (Pad)
This is a pad I made that has a bit of a string sound with maybe a hint of vocal or choral tones. I've yet to wrap my head around this synth, let alone the new animator section. Simple demo made only with this preset. :) https://us.v-cdn.net/6034896/uploads/DPJ8HZ5RUOGW/pd-nostalgic-emh.nksf…

Tracked Melodic Perc
Hey all! This sound started as a 'let's use all the key and velocity tracking on everything' exercise and then developed into this melodic percussion patch. It's very dynamic with lots of subtle and less subtle modulation and sounds pretty good throughout the whole register. It's very playable and using the animator gives…

Anyone use an X-Y surface controller with Massive X Play (or any other NI product with an X-Y pad)?
I purchased a ROLI Songmaker Kit, which comes with the ROLI Lightpad Block, Seaboard Block, and a Loop Block. I mainly purchased this to use the Lightpad as an X-Y controller. Is there a way setup Massive X so that the X-Y Play surface is controllable for a surface MIDI controller, like the ROLI Lightpad? There's also a…

Note On/Off Pluck | "Decorations"
I have a pluck patch here that triggers an Oscillator on Key Press and then triggers an Oscillator on Key Release. 6 macros have been set up to alter the tone in many ways, but the core sound is already good. All sorts of modulations are used, particularly to control what triggers a sound. I've put together a demo with…

Sequenced Dance Pad (Massive X Preset)
About: The concept behind this preset was to make a pad synth that features layers of arpeggio synths on top. I eventually added the ability to play bass and melody sections that are mostly separate from the main pad and arps resulting in a 4-in-1 multi synthesizer. I am usually inspired by world trance and new age music,…

Lead : Zap Zap Game

Phat Bass Growls
Massive X has SO MANY different ways to produce growly types of basses, its difficult to produce a patch that doesn't make you get lost in the weeds of constant tweaks. I would call this a proof of concept. Still, i've set up the XY Pad, so you can get a taste for it. The real sauce is in when you take control of the…

Non-Synched Performer
I thinkI already know the answer to this question, I'm just basically looking for confirmation… As it would seem, I can't find anyway to turn off Tempo Sync in the Performer and use it as some sort of simple, freely timed Multi-Seg Envelope. Is it actually possible?? From what I can tell, NO, and it's on probably most…

Massive X pitch wheel bug in Reaper
There appears to be a bug when you add pitch wheel automation to Massive X in Reaper. The note will sometimes stay on if you stop playback during the note. Once the note is on, the only way to turn it off is to keep playing the same note until it stops. Even triggering another note will not stop it. It has to be the same…

Massive 1.6.0 improvement requests

Restrict modulation range when a macro is applied to a function (e.g. when macro is full turned from left to right, only e.g. 40% of…

Massive X Play - lacks expected parameters
Massive X Play - still lacks parameters compared to Pigments 6 Play mode: Basic parameters per sound engine module (volume, etc) Utility Parameters Filter Parameters FX Parameters Nice to see double the amount of macros and a XY pad surface though but it would be nice for som basic synth controls in this mode at least.
