fell out of love with fabfilter

Post by Johnisfaster » Thu Feb 22, 2007 9:15 pm

lately I just plain can't stand the sound of fab twin or one. I'm slowly starting to consider selling them but I'm not sure yet considering I have actually used them in a few songs. I still love timeless and volcano but I can't get into twin and one at allllllll!!!!!

my nord sounds a million times better.

just ranting about it really.

my Nord sounds better too..

Also don't find the concept of One and Two not challenging anymore..
It just stays an MS-20..

I'm pretty sure fabfilter doesn't allow license transfers.

I never really was much for fabfilter twin, but that earlier statement takes the cake.

Ignorance is bliss.

I'd be willing to bet they do.

Same thing happened to me with operator. Love the interface and the integration/stability within live, so I still turn to it often, but usually end up hating the sound.

see to me operator at least has some ability to sound like this or that, fabfilter is starting to constantly sound exactly the same no matter what I do to it I feel like it's just "I'm a fabfilter synth!!!!!!!!! FABFILTER SYNTH!!" and you're like "dude, I know you are... I know...."

No, they don't, unless they've recently changed policy.

Maybe if you are Bill Gates it would seem that way?

being that I would be keeping my timeless lisence and therefor continuing to be a customer I'm willing to bet if I bitch enough about it they would eventually let me transfer. and if they don't I have no problem with selling it and giving someone my lisence and deleting my copy of the plugs from my computer. I don't feel it should be a software companies right to say you can't sell the software you've bought even though I do understand they technically have that right.
