Ableton Forum

Personally I have never complained about the usability initially of NI's products.
I use Guitar Rig, Absynth and Massive daily, along with a lot of other products of theirs in Komplete.
I own Rig Kontrol 3 and use it live for audio in and as a controller, and use the Kore 1 hardware as my audio ...

Yawn, more garbage from Arturia, the kings of hype.
All their virtual "analog" synths sound the same, because their programmers were caught by UK's Sound on Sound magazine, using the same code for the oscillators between their synths..
Yep, somehow the geniuses at Arturia think that a saw ...

is it because Kore was discontinued?

You don't have to own products to know them.

Are you advocating the use of warez in Ableton's forum???
I will surely take your opinion seriously now..
is your copy of Ableton illegal too?

Don't worry sheeple.. everything is fine,
Don't let this evil Ableton user scare you!

All Your NI products are still safe from early obsolescence, just make sure you pre-order your Komplete v.666 upgrade this summer

P.S. We have a couple of leftover brand new Kore 2 controllers with full warranty ...

For starters I am just uncomfortable with people trying to tell me what the 'truth' is.


Sorry dude, didn't know you were trying to cover the sun with your hands
you can always stop reading this thread and go back to your safe little world..

I love how people who don't own or have never used NI ...

I love how NI's Fan Boys are desperately trying to convince themselves how great their overpriced Komplete / Maschine / Traktor software is, LOL!

and yet, i have yet to see anyone here come up with *any* convincing arguments to prove their point.

Sure, NI has some great products.. Massive is huge ...

There’s some gaping holes in that argument.
The APC40 is a controller. Period.

Maschine is a controller with DAW software. Sure the software isn’t as fully featured as stand alone DAW software but it has a hell of a lot more than a drum plug-in including the ability to host softsynths in it ...

Overpriced? Well at least what would you charge for Maschine Micro then?

Maschine is not worth more than an APC40 is..
please don't tell me Maschine is not overpriced at $600!!!
that is the biggest ripoff evah...

I am sure they don't discontinue stuff just to piss off customers.

No, they ...

And let's not even bring up the Kore fiasco, who assured hundreds if not thousands of NI customers won't ever spend a dime on NI's products ever again.


I'm pretty sure that a lot of those people you are talking about bought Maschine.

Maschine... the overpriced monome / Launchpad / Akai MPC ...

Stephan Schmitt is no Steve Jobs, that's for sure.

Yes, but then again who is? :x


Robert Henke is a brilliant guy.. he created Ableton long after Cakewalk, Cubase and Logic were established products, and yet he managed to kick butt and to revolutionize the market, against all odds..

if you ...

The history of Stephan Schmitt and NI, is one of monumental failure.
In his tenure as "CEO", Reaktor was abandoned for about 5 years, and many popular software products were ditched, until investors got a real CEO, who turned out to be worse than Mr. Schmitt!
He started his new company because his ...
