    That's right, the same goes for the ancient Atmosphere. What I don't know if you can buy them as expansion as an Omnisphere user.

    This Avenger plugin isn't even worthy of comparison to Omnisphere. What you get for your money is not the same. It's like Korg(Omnisphere) -vs- Casio(Avenger).

    You're not a keyboard player. I know this 100%. Otherwise, you're claim would be the same as mine. And don't come back and say that you are. Because I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is. Are you? I won't call you stupid over the internet though.. it won't prove my willingness to say it directly to your face. Neither does it prove shit for you to do it on the internet. I can give you some keyboard lessons though. Those are facts. I don't care about how you band together in here with your social media friends and blindly support one another like some facebook group. Your messages and likes only show you have more time to bullshit than I do.

    I honestly doubt his keyboard skills if he can't get Avenger sounding good. I bet Jordan Rudess could make the INIT patch sound like a thousand angels farting in harmony.

    No, I'm not a keyboard player. I started with guitar and use Push as its a more familiar feel. Not an expert player but competent enough that you suggesting that anyone who likes something you don't is ... slow one finger fundamental changing or whatever you called it is insulting. You're just being insulting in a roundabout way so you can high road if someone forces the issue. Textbook internet bullshit.

    And are we really doing the 'you wouldn't say it to my face' thing?

    This whole thing raises a good point though, I've gotten myself dragged into too much negativity by this shit.

    From the dev: "All presets are usable for all kinds of Cinematic stuff, Trance, Ambient, Techno or Trailer/Media music - all you have to do is press one key and play with the macro dials!" Textbook :D

    It also says this about another EDM preset bank! I guess they know their users >____>

    Yeah I know. The point I was making was just to highlight how ridiculous it is that people were calculating literally every Avenger expansion as part of the cost of Avenger. Maybe I leaned into it too hard, because I was mostly just making a dumb, cherry picked argument to counter a dumb cherry picked argument.

    That's the description to ONE expansion that utilizes the granular engine heavily. Cherry pick more.

    Besides, that expansion is pretty amazing for soundbeds and obviously not meant for melody playing.

    This is pointless. Let me sum up the whole thread for you

    Side A: you can use this to do practically any kind of sound design easily and unhampered
    Side B: but the presets! :(

    famouslut has an axe to grind about every dev whose copy protection he doesn't like. U-he, tone2, Vengeance and anyone who uses elicenser probably. That's his prerogative. He's generally not so bad and knows some stuff, but I probably wouldn't take him seriously in topics like this

    This thread is like one of those comedy flicks that start mostly about laughs and then reach a point when some drama is introduced in the plot and then a soft comedy until the end.

    About the @dbmuzik and @Cav Emp discussion. I think some of what the former says it's not true and indeed insulting (no need to be an expert to tell but I'd still take your free lessons) and the latter makes the mistake to reply with an insult.

    Can we move now to the soft comedy part?

    I'm very much tempted myself :rofl:

    This is what I said:
    I was referring to the poor mapping and key crossover points on the Avenger plugin itself. It limits the user to using the majority of patches in the way I described above. That would also include myself. Even with the majority of LEAD patches you cannot play a fast lead solo without notes muting out. And there are no advanced user settings to tailor and fix that problem. I described more about it in another comment which you didn't reply to.

    And you conveniently overlooked this statement I made even prior to that.. as it left no room for you misinterpret it and chastise. This is how I spoke of Avenger as it pertains to other "people's" interest:
    Nothing I said had your name in it. When you speak to me 1st, and call someone "stupid" in regard to a statements YOU failed to comprehend.. like you said.. that's some "textbook internet bullshit".
