Seriously brother, I really missed watching your videos. I really like your vibe, you are an inspiration to me. Please don't stop making videos, I like all the types of videos you make but if you can, do some production in the next video!
I am SO pleased you created this video, because you single handedly managed to dispel the myth that a VST is only good if it costs a fortune. Maybe people will wake up to the fact finally, that there is just no substitute for pure talent!
I just got this at plug-in boutique for $10 today. Came to the video immediately & this is one of the best purchases I made this year. Thanks for the vid bro. 💯
Man I slept on it for awhile bc I didn’t really have any extra money since I just had my daughter. But then it went up to like $100 for awhile and I was siiiick. I just got it now that it’s on sale again lol
You can take this plugin to another level. Love how play the sounds. I have this plugin since 10 years or more but only used it sparely. Need to get back on it
Bro! I have been waiting for this day fo eva!!! Glad to see you back, you were missed more than you know. This is my favorite music channel!!! Let the Ballads begin!
Def do another video on the sounds.... that older video was actually the only video I disagreed with you because of how ease of use xpand is and just throw a couple effects and it does the job well. Great video look foward to part 2
AIR Music Technology needs to come on with the native apple silicon support for Xpand!2. I love the VST but its buggy on Rosetta so I stopped using it.
Anybody interested in buying Xpand2 should wait till the price goes back down. It goes on sale all the time. I grabbed it for $10 a couple years back, right now it's at $100
I’m so glad to see you back bro! You are one of the creators that inspire me here on YT. You are just one of authentic. I wanted to ask if your able to breakdown how you create your videos, I wanna start doing my beatmaking videos I have camera and whole set up with UAD Apollo using console, and I want to start making vids but I don’t how to set it so it’s this seamless! Are you able to do a breakdown vid of how get this workflow?
$29 Christmas sale… didn’t do much homework on this VST other than a random comment on a message forum claiming this is the closest we’ll get to steinberg hypersonic, but said fck it and bought it
This is my favorite VSTi! For me, as long as I have this and Massive, I can enjoy creating songs. I don't understand why it was chosen as the worst, even though you can buy it cheaply on sale and it has a rich range of tones. Does it have the impression of being a General MIDI sound source? If I have one complaint, it's that you can't change the size of the GUI. The buttons are small...
Once you demo’d the Bass patches, I was sold. As a Bassist, I am always looking for different Bass Sounds for sound design. One question, is this vst a cpu hog?
I have xpand 2 , analog lab , wave station , Kronos , hype , jura ,kontak , odyssey, bass line ,solina, drum synth , electric , tube synth , mini d , fabric collection , arcade ,etc I can’t name them all its 900 plus gigs of sounds it would take me forever to go through them all . I use mpc software , mpc one plus standalone , fl studio, logic , reasons 13 to produce. People say I’m a hoarder because I have a room full of music equipment and cameras a7siii , fx30 , a6500 , canon 80 d , canon m50 , gh5 , Dji pocket 2 and 3 , black magic pocket 4k , black magic og , canon c100 mark 100 , lumix g7 , t5i and older cameras. I produce , record and film videos for artists signed and unsigned
Does anyone use Xpander with Ableton on a pc. For someone reason mine has disappeared. I have not been able to get my Ableton to locate it. I used to use mine Xpander and I miss it
Just got my laptop back after having SOOO MANY ISSUES! I'm BACK LIKE JORDAN FOR GOOD!!!
Thought u quit doing videos
Seriously brother, I really missed watching your videos. I really like your vibe, you are an inspiration to me. Please don't stop making videos, I like all the types of videos you make but if you can, do some production in the next video!

I am SO pleased you created this video, because you single handedly managed to dispel the myth that a VST is only good if it costs a fortune. Maybe people will wake up to the fact finally, that there is just no substitute for pure talent!

What a talented guy. Fabulous VST. HIGHLY UNDERRATED.

IT’S NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN WE MISSED YOUR VIDEOS
thanks bro! I'm happy to be back!
Aye my guy! Good to see you.

Got Xpand 2 with my MIDI controller and use it all the time. Great jumping off point for sound design. Same for Raum, actually. Great demo.
for sure its great! thanks bro!
Geez bro! I never have watched one of your videos, but the first part you mentioned about why people listen to your music was so good! Great job!
I appreciate that
Really nice you looked back at this gem!! Please do a part 2 😁

Definitely do more vids on Xpand2! There is SOOO MUCH potential in this VST for SURE!

thanks G! and yes currently editing a new one as we speak!
Welcome back bro!!! You’re the second person I seen talking about this plugin this week in 2024 I might have to pull the plug and finally buy this!!!
dope I got it for 10 dollars so id expect to drop in price soon!
I think is always underrated. Is one of the plugins I used the most as soon as I start getting serious on production
You should do your favorite Heat Up 3 packs/sounds. Your old video put me on to it 👍🏾
yes sir!! put it out last week!
Man it's been a while man, good to see you again
thank you Arnold bro!! I'll never leave y'all again haha
@SweetScaleTV haha 😄 U should make a second video of your favorite sounds in xpand! Can't wait to see it man
Now i look at this plugin totally different now👏👏👏
Great video! Love your point about creating a feeling for artists and so fun to watch you make beats.
Thanks so much!
@SweetScaleTV Hey wassup ! Glad to see you post.
what's good fam! thank you im happy to be back!
Man it's good to see you on here again!! Hope the Djaying going good for you stay blessed.
So Expand 2 came bundled with ProTools 8 back in the day, along with Hybrid and a couple of other VSTi. So it had to be good.

Someone doing justice to that dope instrument!
I have this vst but had no idea of what it could do. Thank you!
Pls we need you to do more on xpand, thank you for making this plugin great again
Will do bro!
It's definitely the most bang for your buck… I got a copy a few years ago for about 15 bucks.
AIR Music Technology needs to come on with the native apple silicon support for Xpand!2. I love the VST but its buggy on Rosetta so I stopped using it.
word!
Yes bro! The homie is back on the UA-cam grind 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼!
You already know! thanks fam!
You didn't seem to care for Xpand on your older videos. I love this plugin!!
I use xpand a lot. Underrated vst right there
facts!!
I love the arpeggios it has especially the violin ones🔥🔥💯
Funny enough it’s one of my go to synths as it sounds good and doesn’t drain the cpu, definitely do a second video bro 👊🏾
good to see you again
thanks bro!!
Let’s goo🔥🔥🔥
fam!
Missed u!
Thanks D! glad to be back!
You givin the secret sauce right here man. Gotta chill with that… 🤫
Anybody interested in buying Xpand2 should wait till the price goes back down. It goes on sale all the time. I grabbed it for $10 a couple years back, right now it's at $100
for sure the price will eventually drop! matter of fact its now 10 dollars again!
I’m so glad to see you back bro! You are one of the creators that inspire me here on YT. You are just one of authentic.

Do a 2nd video on XPand2! por favour!
for sure I got plenty more coming up on Xpand!
@@SweetScaleTV thx

Yes I agree I was wrong about this one its amazing!
Yes! Do another one....
I love XPand!2
such a good vst!!!
Sometimes we need to use what we have rather than what we want.
Love this!
Awesome
thanks bro!
I use Expand with Halion or Kontkat or Iconica Strecth under neath a Vst to make it a little fuller. It works great 👍
Good stuff!
YOU BACK BROTHER ?
Once you demo’d the Bass patches, I was sold. As a Bassist, I am always looking for different Bass Sounds for sound design.
One question, is this vst a cpu hog?
It's very light on CPU. You can load tons of them...
Please tell me the code name of the first PAD demo.
It's so cool!!
It's the first patch when you first loud up Xpand!
@@SweetScaleTV
I spelled it wrong, sorry...
It's a chord progression.
thank you for your reply!

😐
nice technique on those keys.
Can anyone recommend any other VST similar like this??? with thousands of presets
What drums are you using @03:04 ( what source is it )? thx
I made the drum loop by mixing loops from splice!
can you make a video on how to install expand2 for fl
What does the easy button do? I've never noticed it lol
Curious if u r running on apple silicon.Also did u install the vst3 beta version?
I use xpand2 in alot of my beats 😅
yea bro its actually dope!
Bro I just seen on plug-in boutique xpandi 2 is 9.99??? I'm about to buy it asap
Where you been bro?
DJing!! haha but im back for good!
Bro I'm using it right now😁
aye I love it!
이제 애플 최신 버전에서도 잘 됩니다! 감사합니다.
SWEEEEEET SCAAAAALE 🫡
I do not understand why they do not upgrade for M1 native.
It is. Vt3 mac m1 beta been out for months. Works flawlessly for me. Have to sign up for beta
hopefully they get that worked out asap!
MPC Heads sleep on that fact this included with all modern MPCs...😢
Does anyone use Xpander with Ableton on a pc. For someone reason mine has disappeared. I have not been able to get my Ableton to locate it. I used to use mine Xpander and I miss it
dang! thats the worst try to reinstall it!
@@SweetScaleTV I di reinstall, but i am not sure where it belongs. i have tried vst, program files etc. i see it, but my ableton doesn't
@@Mellohypemusic123try checking it under the Steinberg folder
If only it was M1 Native. I own and then bought MacBook Pro M3. I'm doing anything with Rosetta. So I'm out. Great video though.
Smith Burg
❤🔥
yessir!
It's cool but i can't use it on my mac m3...it's not compatible
dang sorry to hear hopefully they make changes to that soon!
@@SweetScaleTV Don't think so, pretty sure it's been like that since M2 and they still haven't made a compatibility update
Works fine on M1, but i think i still run logic in Rosetta mode.
Did you try the beta vst3
Brannon Common
❤❤❤❤

I paid a whooping $1 for it 😂
😂 😂 😂 good for you its so dope!
@SweetScaleTV Good to have you back, bro. I bought it for $1 years back as well @rikkshow. Best investment ever!

ngl ... this straight up sounds a lot less synthy and fake compared to Heat Up 3
Sweet, you mad slow. This plugin has been "the plug" for years now.
I'm here now!
@@SweetScaleTV I appreciate your tenacity. Rock on.
