Just want to report in and say I got the Nexus 3 upgrade today and not happy with the outcome, first there is no real editing like you can do with Omnisphere and 2nd you will loose all ability to import custom made samples or or "repackaged samples" posting a screenshot I have of an argument with the Support staff on having the ability to create my own damn presets, but was assumed I was pirate for it. FU Nexus!

 

Bruh I had the same answer after upgrading for 99 dollars.

 

They really, really really really REALLY are asking for being cracked.
And I'm a legit customer, but...

 

it's a rompler bro. you're not supposed to make your own presets in it.

 

seems they are going the same way as Apple and want to only have "closed systems" that is target at "consumers" and not "serious" use.

they are digging thier owne grave for the short term goal of profit and not looking ahead to build a better product and having better relationships whith thier PAYING CLIENTS.

 

Good old refx costumer service xD

They really deserve to be cracked, Vengeance even more. For most (good) companies I feel kinda sad, if a product get's cracked, but not for them anymore.

 

@FadedShadows I can stand side by side with you brother on this issue

on the old version we all know how to load expansion . click on system / locate the expansion ...BAM ..done
BUT THATS NOT THE CASE HERE nexus3
system button is there but theres no search /locate expansion section
i tried drag and drop thinking thats would be the easiest trick but nope ,it had to be done from stupid nexus cloud
and here the thing ,i bought nexus 3 today (only plugin) because i have alot of expansions already
from old version and i kept few ones that dont work for future purchase which was this day )
and now i cant use these ?? WTF ?!!
if these expansions are not installed yet then it wont work ,why the new version nexus3 cant load NXP format is beyond me
,,if thats they call using pirated stuff then screwthem
hell no refx i wont buy your stupid expansions anymore

guys ..do yourselves a favor and stay away from refx nexus crap if you are thinking of trying buying it
if all your current expansions working on your copy of nexus then no need to install upgrade to 3
and by the way my old version is gone and replaced by this stupid gay rainbow look new version

go buy VPS avenger or UVI falcon ,you will have more fun making music with 2 beasts (i have them both )


REFX is dead

 

Are you saying that the FER trance presets for instance although working like a charm in nexus 2 cannot be loaded into Nexus 3???

 

Yeah no old premade presets will work. None that are relabeled I.e. trap or edm.

 

Sheesh hes really implying that its illegal for people to create their own presets out of Nexus and sell it lol. Im curious now if it actually is against their terms???

 

1.

So is it not true what the customer service guy says?

If the 'presets' contain actual samples taken from the Nexus library, then of fucking course you can't sell them. And they are free to make sure their player doesn't load them.

2.

Nexus wasn't omnisphere. Nexus 2 wasn't omnisphere either. Nexus 3 isn't omnisphere. There's a pattern here.

Hint: when the 4.0 eventually comes out, maybe don't buy it without checking whether it has turned into omnisphere first.

 

I have an old Korg Triton, which is technically a Big-Ass Rompler. I can create presets for it and also import in custom made samples to edit with. I also have a Motif Rack XS, which I can edit with the Motif XS Editor and save as custom presets. No BS encryption dongles, Auth-Logins or Nazi Controlled Expansion Packs. My point, Korg and Yamaha encouraged us to make new sounds and with their romplers. And that is why those keyboards will never leave my studio. ​

 

Without losing your temper with them and possibly doing or saying something you might later regret, check the statute laws for your country.

Here in the UK under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, digital content should be of a satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and as described.

I believe you would have a case for a refund as your purchase is 'Not fit for purpose'

 

dont upgrade for 99 and especially dont buy it new,,, i upgraded and its crap wasted 99... rompler for the kids ...now the kids cant share their home brew patches lol

 

There is already a thread for nexus 3

 

Ought to be cracked

 

You guys seem surprised.Nexus is shit for kids of course,from a greedy company.

However on the Nexus' website they say :
"NEXUS3 is compatible with your existing NEXUS2 library. Load your old beats into your DAW and load the sounds you've had before.

Upgrading has never been smoother."

 

i think its time to let nexus die and just crack it, they desperately seem to try be not customer friendly.
first they introduced the usb licenser.. i mean cmon....
and now this? (i know u dont need the licenser anymore but it was still an annoying move at the time)
just dont support companies like that imo, you can probably do anything that nexus does in omnisphere, maybe sell you nexus license and save up for omnisphere.
i hope youll get this right my bois

 

For what it's worth, I got the Nexus 3 upgrade for Free, I recently bought Nexus 2 on a sale at the $250 price tag back in Mid August of this year for a sound design project I was working on. Since the Nexus 2 was purchased after August, it qualified me for the free upgrade. I decided to give version 3 a try... what a crock of shiz! I will more and likely try to throw my copy on eBay after this BS, unless Nexus 3 is like FL Studio, who bans you from reselling. I swear, I have never seen more Mafia Crap than what some of these Shady VST companies will do to make their F'n Dollar! It's an absolute disgrace to the industry...

 

Yes but this particular topic about it's inability to load old expansions deserve a thread in itself.
The title should be more specific though.

thats right @Olymoon dear ..nexus3 current version cant read NXP ..all these expansions we have from old nexus are in NXP format its where we located them so nexus install them and can play them thorough its browser
i had made a costume folder inside nexus 2 (2.2.0)where i put all FXB formats (from free nexus presets made by users over the years and some others from viruss access presets in one folder which has no problem to read and play them

the installation of refx is also weird it doesnt give you chance to install it at your desired locations
and it doesnt even say refx cloud made shortcut at desktop ,and i cant find the exe that opens the the damn refx cloud,i had to install it and check yes for launch check box ,guys if you know a better trick please let me know ,and im sure this will usefull for other refx victims

edit : this just came in and it shows my nexus3 is outdated on the refx cloud( im updating now )
new version is 3.0.3
i have to check and see what are the bug fixes
lets hope it can finally read NXP format
