Sep 18, 2009 - you have no idea what's going on do you?

ReaktorFreak Says:

Sep 18, 2009 - Hmm, still sounds like the famous previous keymasher micro ensemble, but a lot more sophisticated on this one (especially the looks) :)

Sep 18, 2009 - What's the keyboard in this video? looks so neat.

Sep 19, 2009 - im a big fan of native instruments but this is shit no realistic musical application at all not for djing not for composing and by the sounds of it, recycled trash. love you NI but this is proper pointless

DJVespers Says:

Sep 20, 2009 - This looks like a complete rip off of the Access Virus TI Atomizer plugin and / or Sugar Bytes Artillery II. Looks like perhaps one or two different features, but all in all, it's been done before. I do, however, like the fact that pressing a second key actually links into a second effect, up to a chain of six. That's actually sweet.

Sep 21, 2009 - I purchased the finger and when i use it as a plug-in for effect processing in my DAW(Live) it doesn't recognize or receive and midi cc. I kore player and reaktor. It works and reads midi in stand alone but not in DAW's. So playing the keys are useless. Is anyone else having this same issue???

ReaktorFreak Says:

Sep 21, 2009 - Man, the Reaktor forum goes CRAZY about this lol... so many threads about it :D

synerjee Says:

Sep 22, 2009 - ...which were themselves ripoffs from dBlue Glitch, which simply brought what Reaktor and Max/MSP users already could do for years in the shape of a convenient and free plugin ;). The advantage of this one is that it works on OS X too and it's cheaper than most alternatives (except for Glitch) and it does more than, say, MDSP LiveCut. Other than that I agree with you that there's not much originality in there; especially if you consider that the glitch effect lost its novelty a while ago.

Sep 23, 2009 - You are probably on a mac and use the AU-versions of the plugs? Try it with the VsT versions. this did the trick for me with sleens toolpack, might work were too, but not sure... try it

definty Says:

Sep 23, 2009 - absolutely agree this will be good news for hardly any musicians, very unusable unless u like to make irritating robot sounds. fun to play around with but i think that is about it i would get bored after 25 minutes as would any normal human. And as for using it live that must be a fucking nightmare trying to memorize what every key does as well as dj'ing or playing live if you made a good sound on it and you didnt record the midi your fucked. out of a 66 key keyboard there 396 other combinations

sonorum73 Says:

Sep 24, 2009 - Hmmm Ok , this is cool but BEWARE this is not compatible with PPC MAC's !!!! I think this is unaceptable for a company such as NI to release a product that does not work for half it's MAC Users , Dont NI have MAC PPC's in there office , to at least test there prodcuts before releasing them ???

methamotional3 Says:

Sep 24, 2009 - yeah useless... indeed

ReaktorFreak Says:

Sep 26, 2009 - This is because of Reaktor core cell limitations, lots of other ensembles aren't compatible with PPC either :( NI should make a non-Reaktor version of The Finger...

loneguitaristyannis Says:

Sep 28, 2009 - It's based on the fact that Apple themselves are leaving the PPC platform behind for good. Snow Leopard is ditching PPC support and off the back of that, a lot of software developers are doing the same.

sonorum73 Says:

Sep 29, 2009 - so does this mean if one gets Snow Leopard , this problem is resolved ?

loneguitaristyannis Says:

Sep 29, 2009 - The problem of it not working on a PPC Mac? Well considering the fact that Snow Leopard won't even run on a PPC Mac, I highly doubt that it would sort the problem xD

TheRealCritique Says:

Oct 2, 2009 - I run a dual 533mhz PPC mac and guess what, I bought it in what? 2001? Jesus christ, computers get frigging old. I wouldnt want to run Live on it, or edit video on it. Its slow as hell on the net, although it didnt use to be. I'll save it for some OS9 stuff I like, and its still useful, but cmon, I have a Intel Mac, too. Get a clue and get a new computer.

kb1629 Says:

Oct 19, 2009 - Bought the Finger last week and I must say that it really is amazing.

predsednic Says:

mindphlux Says:

mindphlux Says:

pukpuklouis Says:
