Taking its predecessor’s semi-modular approach much further, any output can be connected to an input, and audio can be routed to or from multiple components simultaneously. Routing has been completely rethought in Massive X. Users of the first Massive will recognize the ‘saturn ring’ drag-and-drop modulation workflow that has been carried over into the new instrument. Switchable filters, noise generators, insert effects, and master effects enable real flexibility when building and editing sound, and a comprehensive preset library provides a wealth of production-ready sounds that also showcase the possibilities of the instrument. Two phase modulation oscillators and an auxiliary modulation input mean Massive X is capable of huge variation right at the sound source – even before additional modulation, effects, or routing are used.

Three primary sound sculpting controls include wavetable position as a standard control, plus two additional custom parameters for each mode. Based on a state of the art architecture, it delivers pristine sound, and huge creative flexibility for artists and sound designers alike – allowing them to create, modulate, and experiment with sound from a huge range of sources, in any way they like.Īt the heart of Massive X is a rich new oscillator section with dual wavetable oscillators and 170 wavetables.ġ0 different oscillator modes, each with their own submodes, provide countless ways to create exciting and dynamic sounds or textures. Massive X is Native Instruments’ new flagship synth, built by the same team as its predecessor. Famous for its intuitive interface and sonic potential – from enormous basslines and soaring leads, to evolving ambient textures – it quickly became a staple part of many production toolkits. The original Massive, having helped define the sound of modern genres such as dubstep and EDM, became synonymous with an exciting, forward-thinking approach to synthesis that unapologetically embraced its digital DNA.
