The software looks OK, NI's advertisements are always far too mainstream produced and slick, which only makes them look silly. It's too expensive for what it is though IMO.
I'll always like them for Absynth and Reactor, Kore gets my vote as well, but NI are far too geared towards homogeny these days.

I think he means that NI is marketin' their stuff towards the brothas!!!!!
I think that's a little ironic, because for the longest time, I felt as if all music software was marketed towards the electro, Euro , house club scene sound which really didn't include the brothas, but I was never offended by it.

They produce far too much product geared towards people who do not want to delve into the machines they make. Kore is really pretty cool, but geared towards Kore Packs, collections of presets, and Kore is geared towards people who use presets = homogeny.ilia wrote:what do you mean by that?Machinesworking wrote:NI are far too geared towards homogeny these days.
They spend more money on paying people to write great sounding presets than they do on people to write great manuals for Reactor for instance. This is market driven for sure, but it's still obvious to me that in contradiction to Ableton, who actually have a derth of useable presets for their instruments and FX, and recently teamed up with Cycling 74 to give even greater flexibility, NI are homogenous in approach.
Doesn't mean their actual code is though. Absynth, Kontakt, FM8 and Massive for instance have a lot of flexibility, and Reactor is as amazing as Max/MSP, and has a larger, more giving community.

Not even close kb420. I'm probably more repulsed by the electro, Euro , house club scene sound than you are. See above post for my reasons.kb420 wrote:ilia wrote:what do you mean by that?Machinesworking wrote:NI are far too geared towards homogeny these days.
