This video is misleading on several points: - Bambu Studio is also open source. Orca, in fact, is based on Bambu Studio, which is based on Super Slicer, which is based on Prusa Slicer, which originally used the Slic3r code base. - Bambu Studio also has tree support - Slow down on overhangs is also a part of Bambu Studio - Bambu Studio actually also support other Klipper based printers, but Orca comes with far more printer profiles for other brands and filaments And nowadays, Bambu Studio also supports scarf joint. So there's not much difference between the two.
Hello, Thank you for this video. I have a question. When printing circles, the printer ( use Bambu studio ) is not runing in 360° circles but in 180°, making a half circle and than the other half circle. Resuls are there are 2 very well seen vertical lines in the print. Why does the slicer is not making 360° degrees circles all the way up? And is it possible to interfear in the slicing so the printer does make 360° circles?
@@denisdb725 depends on what you’re printing. At first I thought I’d like random so the seam lines aren’t as visible, but then I get random bumps all over the print. So I use aligned and then cut off the seams, which is easier than removing random bumps all over the place. But sometimes I’ll use random if it makes sense. Either way it’s a super quick change in the settings
I'm definitely in the "intermediate" category of users. My partner and I cut our chops on an anycubic kobra go, and just upgraded a month ago to a bambu P1S. I've been trying out orca for a couple weeks. Mostly I find it works well, but we are definitely finding some odd dicrepancies between it and bambu studio. We will likely continue to use both for the P1S, on a case by case basis.
How does Orca Slicer compare with other (open source?) 3d -> G-code software.. like PrusaSlicer, Cura, MatterControl, Lychee, etc? Especially if fabricating on cnc
That is a really useful synopsis. I'm a complete newbie, Bambu PS1 owner. I'm hearing about Orca slicer, but can maybe park that while I'm still on the learning curve of Bambu studio. One little observation though, are you venting your printer at all? as it looks like it's in your living space.
Tbth, I've had more issues with Orca screwing up supports than Bambu and I have no idea why because yeah they are practically identical. I'm probably doing something wrong in fact I'm sure I am. However, I just fought a small tailflame for a Charizard in Orca for 3 or 4 prints and finally just decided to try it in Bambu and it printed fine the first time. No idea. Orca definitely has more options. The good news is having both is easy and you can switch back and forth if you want.
@imaginitivity7853 , I am just cutting my "Bambu Lab" box (for recycling). There is a sticker on it: Shenzhen Tuozhu Technology Co., Ltd. This is the manufacturing company.
@@adrianthibodeau9421 Yea I heard alot of ppl complaining abt the Creality stuff. So I just went bambulab and its been great. Dude I hate how Creality tried to make an expensive top of the line printer, and abandoned what made them great to begin with. Like if they focused on making the cheapest open-source bambulab's clone, they would be bigger than bambulabs rn.

Looking at you after the firmware update they force )

Complete noob here, but I think there's an option somewhere to randomise the seam
@@imaginitivity7853 Any idea where in the slicer program?
@@denisdb725 "Quality" tab --> "Seam" section --> "Seam position" parameter --> "Random" option
@@NoonianSoong403 Thank you. Check that out. Thank you. Bit strange this is an option for the user to change and not a normal thing in the program.

I am new to 3D printing and am loving Bamboo studio with my Bamboo Labs A1
Same here, is it free?
@@imenlightenxi9276 Bambu Studio is open source and free.
@@imenlightenxi9276 Yes it's free but veryyy not beginner friendly cura is very beginner friendly
The printer, no. The slicer, yes
@@ttkindboy What? The printer is not free? Unbelievable!

I really thought I would hate the closed ecosystem of bambu but nah they converted me from a full on uneducated hater to a shill.
I know right lol
Nobody seems to know that Bambu Lab are two companies not one?? The Maker World is run by a third company (in Singapore).
Interesting. They certainly make it look part of the same company in the app
@@imaginitivity7853 , this is a good example how different companies (software and hardware) can collaborate effectively under the same brand name.

Bambu studio is creating floating tree support. I wonder i Orca slicer will fix that. Really annoying problem.
"Hey, which do you think is better, the K1 Max or the P1S?"
With all the investigation that i have done, I think p1s is way better
My Bro has the K1 and I have the P1S and my Bro is I wish I bought a P1S

try to understand your topics better, this is not well researched, if at all
Your arguments are terrible.
