Djeep Manov' « Yes ... but apparently NOT! A beta version sold as an app!! »
Published on 09/04/13 at 03:39The installation is done it without problems?
I do not know about mac being under windows. I installed windows xp and under seven. Some constraints forcing them to copy shortcuts bank's 17 gigabytes in the same folder as the dll ... anyway! It could have been easier but it is not dead!
The general configuration is easy?
Former user mpc, configuration seems familière.on sees when entering the details that is far from the last mpc.Il flexibility is very simple to create a pattern with excellent sound bank available to the app that in fact also one of its main interests.
MPc early on, we were limited in the visual editing pattern and song because the screen is permitted pas.15 years after the UVI developers have seen fit to keep the same visual impairment probably to keep in mind!
More use standalone is very limited and does not allow to use other vst internally. Example to put a UAD compressor on an internal bus you need to open bpm bpm vst in your DAW!
Have you experienced any incompatibilities?
A mess on PC! Again I do not speak for mac that I used pas.Des bugs in series. The undo is very random, it is better not to make mistakes or deleted by mistake. The (very practical in appearance) editing functions are not reliable and notes shift them even as sseions becomes "loaded" (about 7-8 patterns). Basically you play a groove and elements of tempo hero finds no apparent reason at the next login! The "loop" function to carefully cut the samples can only be used with the mouse scroll. Jai .. mouse logitech marble mouse is not recognized and I have to change my mouse if I want to use the magnifying glass!
Adding layer to the stacker is more hazardous sound and you will often uncheck the "edit all layers" option which joins the same treatment to all samples and that "Récoché" reasons alone without doing so you lose the affected settings chacque has added to its layer! All this causing great loss of time, to repeat what has already been done and loss of spontaneity! I pass and best.
The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
The manual is more than necessary for the installation, for the rest we do not learn much! .. We know that a filter is used to filter, that eq equalize etc. ..
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
Intel Quad Q6600 2.4 ghz
8 gig of RAM
Win seven 64 bit
RME Babyface, UAD card ...
BPM is somewhat greedy May it is understandable given the number calculations to manage.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 3 years and I've had time to test the beast in every corner! The date of 2007 and the last significant update (1.5) software is from 2009 .... (aouch!!)
The idea of this software is very good on paper and I've been able to do with many projects (not without difficulty) with BPM.
However developers have literally abandoned users with their app that seems to me to be a beta version, a demo they sell and continue to sell (very expensive in terms of innovation competition, Maschine, Fl Studio!) With too many bugs! An update is required CONCRETE with optimization in publishing as I said the app could be very well without all these defects causing loss of time so it is better to actually lose in the long learning another "step by step".
In anticipation of a serious update, If you are looking for something simple and intuitive works on, go your way!
