lots of stuff.. I don't think I would use it all

it's worthy to buy though. a lot cheaper than getting it separately.

Bwahahaha@Massive being "cliché and trendy"!!! You obviously haven't spent PROPER time playing with it - from my experience of Massive, it is more capable of producing more unique sounds than just about any other soft synth out there. It's a very complex synth, with THE best modulation options I've seen for any synth ever. The fact that pretty much every parameter is able to be modulated by the numerous types of modulators makes for some very quirky, amazing sounds.

The only flaw, IMO, is the filter... I really can't stand the band-pass filter, and since that's the type of filter I use most, it is kinda irritating. But other than that, I'd REALLY recommend having a PROPER play about with it. Mess about with the step sequencer and rhythmic envelope generator thingy... modulate as many parameters as possible. ..and don't let the dubstep wobble wobble wobble crowd put you off of it!!!

What he said!Ive already spent hours with the thing making incredible sounds, Im always amazed at the sounds it spits out when I do something accidental or unintentional. I all but tossed Surge for this beast! Anyone know if I can load new Oscillators in it?           http://soundcloud.com/tactile-one

I worked for them for 4 years and I don't say this because I am biased but there products and software is fucking awesome, excuse my french.

If you cant afford real synthesizers and want a compact setup in your daw with a lot of virtual instruments buy the komplete bundle, with a midi controller.

I don't think you can load your own wavetables into Massive, unfortunately - though I'd love to be proved wrong!!!

I love Surge, too. 's another synth with amazing modulation options. LOVE the comb filter on it! <3 Massive and Surge are my go-to synths for crazy sounds, and Massive is my go-to synth for squelches and leads.

i personally dislike all the NI synhts, regardless of the sound, just because they have a too much complicated graphic interface, and shitloads of filters envelopes, etc..
In theory it sholud be the exac contrary but i still can't see myself fiddling for hours microscopic knobs
and try this try that instead of rapidly getting the sound i have in mind before it disappears           http://mystic-sound.com/releases/ioon-cosmic-downtempo-9314-oclock/

Can't imagine this world without Kontakt (best sampler imo xz) and Tracktor.

I own Massive, but don't use it nowadays because of bugs. It doesn't save my tweaked preset in the project It was okay in cracked version though

Reaktor is amazing synth, but quite time-consuming.
However the weirdest and coolest sounds can be achived from it, both as synths or fx. I think Reaktor is something that brought lots of good karma to NI stuff, maybe even that's why they are still alive ok just kidding.
