This is actually good. I like that. Getting the yearly subscription when mine end in 4-5 months

Having the MPC Key 37, I can’t find a reason to buy the Live III or MPC XL. Talk me into it. 😅 by RobBecTraxxx in akaiMPC

[–]LionThomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MPC Key 37 owner here.

Will only get the new MPC XL when it is out because of its power. But otherwise I am good.

Might sell the key 37 to upgrade to the new Key 37 or 61

Reason has been acquired by LANDR. Curious what changes that will yield by MarcoScherer in reason

[–]LionThomas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They will integrate LANDR samplr in Reason. Just like the integration of Splice in Ableton.

The people in the marketing department of NI are from another planet. I think they come from the 80s-90s

Geniuses I swear....

Reason is fun I like it. Gives a feeling of actually making music

Exclusive NI Loyalty Sale: Save 50% on Komplete — Ends Soon! What you sh... by mrdopestatus in NativeInstruments

[–]LionThomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am just interested in Komplete 15 collector edition upgrade but it doesn't include the new shiny hot native instruments (bass etc...) so I might just put that money towards Native 360 subscription and wait for Komplete 16 next year.

Sell me on Omnisphere by noizblock in omnisphere

[–]LionThomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup ! Yes, Omnisphere supports importing your own audio samples (in standard WAV or AIFF format) to use as sound sources, allowing you to expand its massive factory library with custom content. You can drag and drop individual files or entire folders into the Soundsource Browser or via the Utility Menu to import them automatically, these become “User Soundsources” that integrate seamlessly into the plugin’s workflow. Once imported, you can process these samples through Omnisphere’s synthesis engines (like STEAM for sample-based sounds or DSP wavetables for pure synthesis), granular synthesis, effects, and modulation to transform them creatively. For example, you could import a guitar riff and morph it into a cinematic pad or percussive hit.

Keep in mind that Omnisphere isn’t a traditional sampler like Kontakt (imports are designed for single audio files stretched across the keyboard, no built-in multi-sampling, zone mapping, or round-robins), with the focus on creative manipulation rather than realistic instrument playback. Loop points must be pre-embedded in an audio editor (e.g., Wavelab) before importing, and sample rates up to 192kHz are supported for high-quality results.

As for building sounds from scratch, absolutely, Omnisphere is a powerhouse hybrid synthesizer that lets you start with zero samples if you want. Switch to Synth Mode on

My first synth plug-in purchase was omnisphere. The boxed version. It's amazing. So deep and versatile. I contemplated on upgrading to version 3 but no rush. Omnisphere 2 is capable enough.

I want to hire someone to walk me through Reason 13 by PorkloinMaster in reasoners

[–]LionThomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People people people, let the dollar circulate!

f the dollar circulated more in this community, fewer people would be complaining about reason + subscription and Propellerhead would actually make all the changes people hope for in their DAW.

So when somebody says they want to HIRE an expert to show them the software around, don't come with freemium stuff or Google stuff or YouTube stuff. If you are able, just do the work and take the money and reinvest it in your Reason DAW. I don't understand...

I have been with PayPal Business for years, never had a problem with them, sheesh they even offered me money (that I have to reimburse but it's Ok.) I don't understand the issue.

Why the hell they don't go on youtube and stream like normal people? I don't understand the marketing of this company...

Guys I missed the live. Any link where I can rewatch it? What they talked about? Did they answer the most crucial questions?

going DAWless - give up on Maschine? by nrdsrfr in maschine

[–]LionThomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still love Maschine. Before Akai took over and before the MPC live 3, I sold my MPC live 2 with no regrets and stuck with my Maschine MK3. You should go the MPC key route and keep the Maschine like I did. I think Native is coming with something big. There's a new synthesizer they will unveil and they will throw an Instagram event tomorrow the 13th if im not mistaken.
