I say NO to this plug in, as I say no to reaktor's life sequencer, no to suppatrigga and live cut.

No worriez mate, I didn't know about all this because for what I use in for I've noticed no bugs or background noise but then again I'm no expert so that about sumz it up!

I loved the video. This isn't just a supatrigga/instajungle/dblue glitch clone, it's way more granular and has more to do with a reaktor ensemble than any of those plugs.

I'm buying this, it's a nice shortcut to time consuming granular edits that easily kills the flow, but are to important to not have in the basic song idea. But yeah, i'm probably going to use it on a few final tracks too, i love hasty irregular granular cuts on 808/909's.

Also, I hope all the nay-sayers are aware that there are people who uses buffer based slice/stutter effects who bounce down serveral minutes of it to splice in while manually editing. I still cut by hand, i just have a few cuts availibe that i wouldn't ever have thought of otherwise.

From their site:

Automaton will be released around 9/15/08. We're working as fast as we can, but we have to make sure such a complex plugin is completely bug-free.

From an interface innovation standpoint I love the look of this thing, in much the same way as I have huge respect and appreciate the thought that went into Glitch and Effectrix. In use though I've found I run into a consistent problem with these kinds of effects which is that the result obtained are FAR too predictable and linear, and tend to sound the same no matter how much you tweak the various parameters. I had the same sensation with many of the Reaktor factory effect ensembles, almost as if loading these things isn't really adding an effect to process a sound, but in fact more like adding another sound completely i.e. instead of loading 'stutter snare.aiff' you slap effectix or whatever on the track and every time you do the same sound results. The joy of using the very best effects for me has always been the "I wonder what happens if I add a little bit of this" factor,coupled with the ability to tweak a few well thought out parameters and achieve a wide range of surprising results. Not to seem over curmudgeonly here, but anyone that can count can pretty much predict what these ultra-quantized effects are going to sound like know matter what you throw at them. a short sound repeted at 16th notes is always just going to go ddddddddddddddd...

Have you tried this yet? ...its not like Effectrix. IMO this stands on its own and offers quite a bit of unpredictability. You can get a predictable pattern if thats what you want, but this can also be very random.

3 things i am missing...tape stop effect, timestretch, reverse.

Besides that i have kinda probs with the timing, seems it looses track of the host sync after lots of minutes playing with it.
