Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
Looks like some of Redmatica Autosampler has been used in the newest release of MainStage.

Re: Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
In MainStage but not in Logic? Interesting.
Any idea if the resulting hardware content can be used with MachFive and Kontakt in DP?

Re: Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
No, I haven't looked. I have Autosampler (works in Yosemite) and don't have a use for MainStage. But presumably, this will make samples that can be used in EXS24, and IIRC you can import those into MachFive and Kontakt.billf wrote:In MainStage but not in Logic? Interesting.

Some of the other EXS manager and patch apps from Redmatica would make sense in Logic, but it seems right to me that Autosampler would be in MainStage.

Re: Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
Yeah the EXS24 format is dead simple, and Konakt and MachFive 3 both import it perfectly.
As an owner of AutoSampler I'm happy that the "upgrade" to the current version when the OS breaks my copy is only going to be $30!
MainStage is becoming truly a no brainer, just wish Apple would allow it to ReWire slave to DP etc. that would be great! One Windows advantage seems to be that developers have figured out how to get ReWire Slaves to still be able to host VST's and VSTi's, haven't really seen that on OSX though I suspect it's possible.

Re: Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
Do you know if Mainstage3 uses the same sounds as MainStage2, including all the GarageBand loops, etc.? Or are they new? Can you just use the old samples from MainStage2? I'd hate to spend all that time downloading the same samples and take up all that disc space for naught.

Re: Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
Can't answer that, but I would guess it keeps the old sounds and adds some new, the only sure fire way is to back up first and run through your old patches.cuttime wrote:Do you know if Mainstage3 uses the same sounds as MainStage2, including all the GarageBand loops, etc.?

I bought 2 a week before 3 came out, but haven't really delved into it. Now that it does AutoSampler I might just pick up 3, but a few items at NAMM have my money first.

Re: Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
FYI, if MainStage 2 is installed, the sample downloader indicates that legacy samples will be skipped, but the new content is still about 20 gigs, which, as far as I can tell, must be installed on the system drive according to App Store installers.cuttime wrote:Do you know if Mainstage3 uses the same sounds as MainStage2, including all the GarageBand loops, etc.?

Re: Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
It's not exactly clear if "legacy samples" only refers to those samples which are obsolete (vs. those which were common to both MS2 and MS3.
At any rate, from my end, it did appear that I was give a pretty granular control over what I could select in the downloads list.

Re: Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
As I recall (and I never had Redmatica), but I thought it had some pretty intensive sample edit features (or was that another Redmatica product?)

Re: Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
Yeah they had Sample Manager, AutoSampler, and Keymap Pro. The last one Keymap was pretty cool for sample editing apparently (it was the only one I didn't own)...stubbsonic wrote:As I recall (and I never had Redmatica), but I thought it had some pretty intensive sample edit features (or was that another Redmatica product?)
Interesting to see them add AutoSampler to MainStage? I didn't hear anything about them adding it to Logic? Weird move but I approve!

Re: Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
I took a look at Logic 10.1 yesterday, and was unable to find the AutoSampler, so AFAIK it is only in MainStage. That does seem like a weird move given that Logic has a built in sampler. But Apple does move in mysterious ways.Michael Canavan wrote:Interesting to see them add AutoSampler to MainStage? I didn't hear anything about them adding it to Logic? Weird move but I approve!

Re: Redmatica Autosampler Lives?
It makes sense in that the amount of complaints MainStage people would have about having to buy a $200 product to use some Triton sounds with their laptop setup VS the amount of complaints Logic users would have about buying a $30 app. Plus you're using Logic in a studio right next to your Triton whereas MainStage is meant for live performance.billf wrote:I took a look at Logic 10.1 yesterday, and was unable to find the AutoSampler, so AFAIK it is only in MainStage.

The missing feature, that could have resulted in a bug within MainStage, so they dropped it for now, if people complain they'll fix it.

What the eight-eyed dog said -- makes perfect sense to me. Apple is doing the right thing here.
