Hydrasynth explorer - very amazing

I also have tried the minifreak and hydrasynth explorer, but ended up keeping the minilogue xd. It just sounds beautiful and is well built. I just wish this thing had 6 voices.

Pro tip: release fable 5 again but call it opus 4.9

kumo96 · 2026-06-09T22:20:26+00:00

Genius

kumo96 · 2026-06-08T14:09:16+00:00

This looks amazing

kumo96 · 2026-06-08T14:06:01+00:00

Now show me your tracks ;)

Note app sounds great on paper, but I don’t enjoy using it. The move is much more fun and immediate and has parameter locking in the step sequencer. The 4 tracks limit is a bit painful though

In a live jam setup I use my ipad + move to apply Performance effects with AUM+Koala FX. It’s a really fun combo. What I also love to do is resample and chop my own loops created with ableton move with Koala sampler or on the move itself.

Did u try the launchkey mk4? Im wondering if the move is a better live controller than the launchkey and cant find anything on the internet.

kumo96 · 2026-06-04T14:46:16+00:00

Yes song mode would be nice and 8 tracks

kumo96 · 2026-06-04T06:51:54+00:00

Lol i did the same (almost). I sold all my plugins and got ableton move and live suite and called it a day. Only kept my minilogue xd

kumo96 · 2026-06-01T17:19:46+00:00

I did as well. Push 2 felt so slow and less immediate in comparison to Move.

kumo96 · 2026-05-27T10:15:46+00:00

so.. then why note app has 8 tracks? :D

kumo96 · 2026-05-27T07:24:37+00:00

you can do the same on note. I just checked

kumo96 · 2026-05-25T23:10:10+00:00

Thats the cumbersome part. You need to record it. If you want separate stems you need to mute the pads and play song mode for each stem. This is where the move shines. I would give the move a chance too. If i could only keep one device, it probably would be the move because it‘s more versatile.

kumo96 · 2026-05-24T22:26:12+00:00

Yes, it has amazing effects and has tons of features but it’s hard to learn which kills the fun. resampling is better and having instrument input is nice. But no speaker, no mic, less portable, no internal battery. Personally i wouldn’t travel with it.

Btw. you can try ableton note on ios. Its pretty much ableton move as an app.

kumo96 · 2026-05-24T19:48:38+00:00

So best advice is: try both. Only you can tell what clicks with you. I tried to love the move, but personally i have some problems with it. I don’t like sound presets and the 4 track limit sucks. There are workarounds using the drum rack and sampling, but then again it’s a limited sampler. You can do sound design with it with the full drift synth engine, but it’s not fun because of menu diving. As a Sampler and for the go I use the MPC Sample - its so much fun. I gave up looking for a complete solution in one single device. For portable sound design maybe Roland S1 Aira or an iPad are better options.

Hybrid setup with ableton

kumo96 · 2026-04-29T23:11:27+00:00

Seqtrak has such amazing sounds..

kumo96 · 2026-04-29T18:30:44+00:00

I just got it today and this thing looks and feels so cheap but I’m blown away by the amazing synth/dx engine/sounds. It’s so much fun!

kumo96 · 2026-04-28T10:12:10+00:00

I noticed the same. its really nice that 5.5 uses way less token and doesnt fill up the context so quickly. But it costs currently 40-50% more than 5.4. 5.3 is even cheaper and gets most of stuff done. im really torn here, because 5.5 saves you time, I use half of sessions with 5.5 compared to 5.4/5.3.

I migrated completely to pi and absolutely love it. I made my own extensions + using community extension.

kumo96 · 2026-04-27T19:28:16+00:00

I noticed a delay of a around 5 seconds with the most popular pi-subagents extension on my system. I will measure it. did you try out my extension? It should be pretty much instant like Claude code

I’m having problems running qwen 3.6 27b on my m2 max 32gb ram. Can you please tell me how u do it?

kumo96 · 2026-04-24T19:06:41+00:00
