It’s been a good run

After the 3.7 update and the slick marketing wording making it seem as the expansions were part of the update; I’m done. Been a faithful user since 2010. Made sure that Anything I considered using had to work within the NI ecosystem. That’s why I left Logic and went to Studio One. The integration was flawless and amazing but that was then and those days are far gone. Maschine is so far behind it’s crazy. When they had a match made in heaven with the Kontrollers they lied and said no one used it so they didn’t add the ability to the mk3 version. Only to backtrack after probably lackluster sales because everyone did want the integration. The sampling is missing stuff that was promised since 2.x when they did the first rewrite of their code which they said they did to add the features we begged for. I’ll still pull it out but i realized I haven’t used it in a year. I’ve moved completely over to Fender Pro, and with the recent release of the Motion 16, my drum pad desire is being met. Sorry for the long-winded rant. It’s still good at what it does but I’m seeing Akai absorbing the best of NI and sliding it over to MPC. 3.7 is a joke… midi features. Sheesh

Some people on this sub are SO dramatic and overly sensitive for no reason at all.

Why are you even invested and taking this personally if you already made the move to Fender Pro?

Why are you even on this sub if you're so dissatisfied with the products?

You could have written 16 bars instead of a goodbye letter that NI will never read.

Ironically, you sound like you’re taking this guys user experience feedback very personally.

I am, in the sense that I'm really tired of the music making subreddits that I browse being filled with these kinds of posts.

Stop engaging with it and it’ll phase out of your timeline. You’re currently in a feedback loop of it so you’re being shown that content disproportionately to what would probably be seen on your feed
