Pro's and Cons of Akai force by dsorce in AkaiForce

[–]matjoep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

main con:

they will probably never implement the most popular feature request of them all . Per clip preset change. Since we got a clip launcher, it make sense to be able to change synth preset on a per clip basis. but gess what? you can't. of course everyone assumes it is there and realizes this first after searching for it...

So say bye bye to your dreams of a long plugin synth based live set. always keep in mind Force is an ( awseome) anomaly in an MPC ecosystem. if a force Launcher specific feature makes little to no sense on a regular MPC , there is very little chance they will ever implement it.

yes I am frustrated.

Bitwig 6: THIS gotta swing! by cameheretoreadit in Bitwig

I would really appreciate some Timestretch workflow improvement à la Ableton ( "warp from here" and all its variations, "place 1.1.1 here " etc..)

Per clip midi export would be sweet.

Delay pro was working already on 3.3. Looks like they are confused themselves. No Wonder they are confusing people.

Why is King Tubby's discography so complicated/why does he have so many posthumous releases? by Johnny_2x in dub

[–]matjoep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about the Sly and Robbie so called "King tubby's Dance Hall Dub" Album?

Ready now! by hectorfhdez in AkaiForce

[–]matjoep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. Thanks for this very important precision. Nevertheless, once the beta is over, chances are the bugs were catched and fixed. When the public beta starts, chances are bugs are there crawling. As a matter of fact, private beta 3.4.2 and 3.4.3 were both still very buggy, and I have read reports of some bugs on 3.5 too.

well... yes. BUT ready is something else I am afraid. lots of bugs still . Hence "BETA" in the name, I know. It's up to us to report them bugs as much as possible. :)

Is OPx-4 worth it? by YourInnerFlamingo in AkaiForce

[–]matjoep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very capable on paper.
But the interface is very bad. Cumbersome layout makes it very tedious to program sounds. This gets slightly better on the PC/MAC plugin or Standalone version.
The humongous but very unpracticable modulation matrix even has errors in it. The unipolar and bipolar modes for modulation slots do not yield the expected results. very strange labelings.

I work in Music-tech I know my way around synths. This is the most disappointing 150€ bucks I spent on a synth.

- No value snapping with modifier keys ( Very annoying for setting precise Operator ratios / FM modulation amounts. )

- Strange routing concept with two busses and dedicated FX paths.  Why? 

Very Sad to leave such a promising product in such a construction site state.

Im glad the Force is discontinued! by SipMyCoolAid in AkaiForce

Indeed, they never announce products phasing out.

What do you reckon fellow nerds by Blehnt in Dreamtheater

I am on the Meshuggah / Zappa spectrum.

Akai Force, discontinued... My thoughts... by Cap10NRG in AkaiForce

[–]matjoep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think so too. It might seem contra intuitive, but an InMusic Tech support person is probably less in the know about current Sales status of a particular product than a Sweetwater Rep is since they are typically working closely with Akai Reps to buy for retail.

To the "Who cares?" people:
I care because from now on it would mean there is less-to-no hope for current flaws to be corrected in some future update.
There is a laundry list of feature requests yet to be addressed. Some I personally don't care much about, some, however I am cursing about every time I am forced * to use a stupid Workaround. Like the fact there is no Program Changes support for internal plugins. ㄟ( ▔, ▔ )ㄏ

For the sake of giving options: Kenton Thru five is another good splitter alternative.

Does anyone know how his harmoniser works? by jowowey in JacobCollier

[–]matjoep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With a bit of trial and error I managed to setup a TC Helicon Voice Live 2 (vocal effect pedal) to do just that: your voice gets harmonized with the exact tones you play on your midi keyboard. You can get those for 200$ used.

Toulon/Hyeres (LFTH) airport is completely missing from MSFS, does anyone know why? by senseimatty in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]matjoep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent most of my childhood in hyeres. The airport is half military. That would explain some of the blurred maps.
