The locator sets only to next/previous var and not where my exact playhead is. Why?

How does this compare to using the Logic Remote iPad app?

This is by far the best tutorial for CS12. The documentation from nektartech is really bad.

Hey man, I’ve been considering this piece of kit so I’ve been going down the rabbit hole the last day or 2. I rarely leave comments on tutorial vids, but I wanted to say you’ve done a really fantastic job at showing the CS12 hardware and software off. Definitely the best I’ve seen here on KZfaq yet! Wanted to say thanks because all the other channels are just focusing on the typical surface level features, you may have been the one to have convinced me to bite the bullet. Thanks again, look forward to more videos on this if future updates come out etc. Cheers!

Thank you , amazing info

this is great video, but how do you save the new flex time to the track and export/bounce it so you can use it on other platform.

This is genius! Thank you.

So much for everybody complaining about the “no jog wheel” myth.

Great review - this control surface looks the best out there for Logic ! Does it automatically map to the controls within alchemy? Both the simple and and the advanced controls? If not can the knobs be mapped manually - and if yes is this easy to do? I need more than just one fader control (mapped to software controls) as may want to change more than one control in Alchemy at the same time. Thanks

Do this controller working also in cubase like in loggic?

You don't feel that your eyes have to jump back and forth between the nectar display and the knobs?

Nice Video, By the way, do you know how to export VST automation, or how to include the VST automation when you export all you MIDI tracks to a single file? Thank you.

So I finally got the PCS12. But I wish someone would show how to map instruments from start to end. That's seems very hard to understand and no one is showing how it's done. Even the manual is hard to understand how to do it.

Sold bro. Great review for this product.

I have no idea how to use Nektarine, I was trying to map some commands from logic...but can't even follow your mapping thing...any useful tutorials of how to use this Nektarine software???????

How do you get them to all be synced to start at the same time?

This video is a literal goldmine of understanding. I just learned so much, thanks man. It was like the last secret sauce tidbits I needed to really solidify my understanding.

I have seen many vids, but I think u explained it where I could understand in plain English! :) If you have anymore suggestions, I would s till like another vid part 2, perhaps gain stage and how u mix. Thanks.

Love Geist 2. It plays well still on PC and older MacOS. I believe it to be a viable and comprehensible tool for beat baking. FXpansion created great software and I hope Roli who owns them ,decides to revisit it .

I like it.. What I wish they would have done was put a higher end led screen. That screen is like 2010 quality. Also maybe a more premium chassis. Other than that based off of everyones review it looks like a great Logic control surface. Great deep dive.

We need more of your expertise please. 🙏🏾 Totally appreciate the gain staging lesson which I struggle with most. But I will need to watch it a few more times to get the gist of fully putting into application.

woudl be nice if we coudl disable that 'analog behavior' from eth past and directly mix hot without first normalising to see something and then reduce teh gain again thats just stupid

Will it work om logic 11

Bro thank you , ive been struggling with this process for a long time

Yeah, I’ve been waiting since February for mine. They claim it’s out, and didn’t communicate any delays until I reached out to nektar. They just shrugged and gave me the runaround with no indication on when it’ll be available. Not a great start..

omg subbing you right now. I'm a self taught engineer and you are definitely holding massive exp under your belt. Would love to see more.

What's the key command to normalize region?

This was a great video. Didn't realize the DAW channels wouldn't clip. Very simple and straightforward explanation.

People have much to gain by watching you sir!

Only for Logic, too bad. What about Cubase?

This can be the best production information video before the sleep good night man..

This is helpful information. I usually just turn down the volume directly on the plugin, then use the mixer knob to adjust the instrument sound to taste in context with the other sounds in the beat/song. You exposed some new techniques. I'll be watching this video over, until I understand what you were doing with the gain plugin and the peak and loudness. Can you do a mixing tutorial video? Thanks for sharing your expertise. Blessings and peace to you and yours.

Jaw dropping tips! I feel like Indiana Jones stumbling upon a temple in the middle of the jungle.

Thanks for the helpful video. Do you have insights on how to use Nektarine with a deep instrument plugin like Battery 4?

Hi Maurice, how did you get the CS12 layout in Nektarine? Not enough decoders and buttons in the Instrument Encoder template.

Gain staging is King

With Nektarine app, it is possible to map functions like: "Create a new Track", "Delete", "Cut on Playhead", etc.??????

Thanks

32 bit float is better for newbs but I prefer to do it correctly first .

23 bit hot tip blew my mind

Great explanation and thoughtful language - I’ll need to watch a few times however as there is a fair bit of info! Cheers Maurice. JPMusic

Excellent- thank you

Excellent explanation. Thanks Maurice.

Great video thanks. How does pre-fader metering fit in to this?

Of all the gain staging videos I’ve seen on KZfaq this is by far one of the clearest and most concise ones I’ve seen. Thanks, Maurice!

🙏

Any tips on gainstaging instrument tracks that have Neural plugins or amp sims?

This is very great to know. It’s really interesting that you understand how to use it. Okay so I can have your input and mix my projects

Very helpful. Thank you Maurice.

Well done! This video answered a lot of unknowns and questions with mixing..
