Run Native Access to get the update.

Another missed chance for NI to drop the AVX requirements...

I thought they have been pretty clear that's never going to happen.

Massive x seems deep', that said the preset tour i made yesturday revealed that : 

1) do they atually know that we re making music ? 

2) how this could have passed validation chains ? 

3) reminds arturias back in dayz presets : unusable !! 

So i m curious about those new 100 presets ...

[Matthew Sorrels]

Well the new presets are easy to find, they have a New In 1.2 section in the presets with exactly 100 presets.

To be honest they are kind of blah.  But some of them have crazy amount of routing and variations.  Taking them apart might be useful to figure out how to use Massive X.  But I didn't hear anything that made me go "That's the sound".  I like that the GUI scales up.  I wish it had a stand alone exe version.  I hate loading a DAW and inserting an instrument just to walk through some presets.

I guess NI considers using KompleteKontrol, having a standalone version.

By the way in komplete kontrol you type 1.2 in the search and it filter all the 1.2 presets witch are imho more revelating of what massive is capable of ...it sound superbe when done right ...

I love the idea of kontrol but the the tiny browser interface makes it unusable imho.
