    This came with my Akai MPK Mini MK2 and I never even bothered downloading it even though it was free with the controller. After watching this, it's clear that I really should just hurry up and download it already, cause this is amazing!

    This review is very well done. Just note, you have to skim past EDM sounds if you want to really see what a synth can do.
    Again, hats of to this review for taking us on a spin around this plugin

    I have Air Loom and Hybrid and I must say I am more impressed with those synths than Sylenth, Hive or Massive which all sound flat to me. It all depends on the kind of music we want to make I guess. Air Loom sounds robotic which I like, it's great for making weird sounds and effects, and Hybrid sounds very warm and dark.

    Very helpful and informative overview - thanks. I just got Hybrid 3 today, and its sound is stunning. As the narrator in the video indicates, it's all about the music, and from the short time I've had Hybrid 3, this synth has already inspired me musically with just a brief, cursory tour through its amazing set of presets. The pads alone are worth the price of admission. Highly recommended!

    I simply can't understand why this synth isn't being discussed more. It might not have as many bells and whistles as Spectrasonics upcoming Omnisphere 2 (which is awesome), but there is a strong attention to detail in the overall sound of the instrument that I REALLY dig.

    5 years later, it's still a formiddable synth, and it doesn't eat too many reasources so I can have a project with quite a few instances of it.

I hate to say this because I'm a huge fan of u-he Zebra 2 ... but some of the sounds here _might_ _just_ _be_ more sophisticated than in Z2 ... and I say that with a heavy heart because I _love_ Zebra 2. However, I'm sure the oscillators aren't nearly as sophisticated as the wavetable engine in Z2, but still, the depth and tone of these sounds are inspiring, as you've pointed out. This looks to be well worth the $150.00 price tag :)

      APC mini wont include sonivox twist, that comes with the APC key 25.
      Heres a small comparison:
      LaunchKey mini comes with vstation and bass station.
      APC key 25 comes with hybrid 3 and sonivox twist.
      Launchpad mini does not include any synths.
      And the APC mini comes with hybrid but not the twist.
      (All include ableton lite ofcourse)
      IMHO akai has the better software bundle.

    Neat synth, nice sounding, and independent A/B parts is a great feature (reminds me of Surge). But I don't understand, why there is no simple crossfade control to morph between the parts (like in Linplug MorphoX). it is obvious feature to have for such a synth.

  • @ghostfrom1950
    @ghostfrom1950 4 роки тому

    I always get sort of intimated and confused by the layout and controls of this thing LOL. Before I would just reach for this synth if I was looking for something out of left field or inspiring (as you say) but only really for presets. If I could just figure out how to get vibrato modulation just like i'd expect on other synths I'd use it more often - this is the reason I haven't fully adopted it. I'd get a decent lead or bass sound but could not figure out the modulation section. But more and more I am finding that I must unleash the potential! 6 oscillators! Jesus!
