Bro I just got the ultimate komplete 13, I coulda save my bread & just got this
Hey thank you for commenting!! The Komplete 13 Ulitmate is 🔥!!! Especially once you start to dive into the Various sounds. This plugin is Definitely dope to have in the Arsenal, but personally if I had the choice and I didn’t have one of the Komplete bundles I would have definitely got the Komplete bundle first and save up for this one down the line. This plugin is a must have though eventually😁 especially for jump starting that creative process.
Native bundle 2023 is $49, just Playbox and Replika are worth it but's there's 4 more VSTs in it, wow, $8 each, crazy value, the world must be coming to an end! 😅
NI does not disappoint when it comes to sound quality. The hype is real with this one.
I totally agree 💯!!! Thank you for commenting🙏🏾
Hey Dwill. I just noticed you hit that 1k sub mark. Congratulations bro 🙌 great video btw
Thanks bro! I really appreciate your support🙏🏾
its the perfect plugin for scores
I haven't slept in two days... I haven't been this inspired by a VST in since I bought MASCHINE 10 Years Ago. Wait till you realize how easy it is to create your own chords, or drag in your own samples and midi info. It is absolutely outstanding. It is so well curated. I'd love to meet the team behind the design. Some of these samples maybe nothing but more than samples from their enormous library. It goes to show you the possibilities that many of us weren't even aware could be achieved with only stacking these types of textures and sound design. What will set this plugin from everything else in this genre of VST's would be.... EXPANSIONS! Enjoy... I'm going to play with my Playbox.
Wow I did not know you can create your own chords!!! Yea this plugin is by far my favorite From Native Instruments to date!! They did really good with this one! Man if they did Expansions that would be next level! I really hope they do!!! I would buy everyone!!😂😂 Thank you for commenting🙏🏾
You just reply the same thing on every review video? How’s that working for ya?
No, I try to respond to each individual comments the best I can.
@@thedeucecake I'm not sure, I could be wrong however, I think you're addressing me for posting on everyone's review that I like this VST so much. I'll admit, I'm starting to get some burn out after using straight for a few days. Seems like all my ideas are coming up Lofi... Stuck in a temp type thing... This plugin definitely in a particular genre,... I'm not quite sure which genre. Its definitely inspiring, and it can you up and working something fast.
@@creativedwill I was not referring to you. Any playbox video out there, the comment op pastes the same thing.
The GUI is offdaplanet, real innovation…. That helps you focus on making music…..and the sample import 🤯
Yea, that sample import is a game changer for me! There are endless possibilities just with that one feature! 😁 thank you for commenting🙏🏾
waaaayyyyy better than arcade.
Appreciate the info. Been looking into this plug-in but wasn't sure. Subscribed and will support the channel in the future. ✊🏿
Awesome, thank you so much for the support!🙏🏾
Native-instruments should have never let me produce with this.
lol 😂 I know right!! It’s too easy
why im I excited that you're excited
lol 😂
Can't wait to dive into this. I've stepped away from music for the last year and this is helping me get back. I got this today in the Komplete subscription. Can't wait to really get into this.
The Komplete subscription is a good welcome back gift to yourself!!😁 Your gonna love it! It definitely surprised me!! Let me know what you think when you dive in!
Also, did you know that you can add your own samples??? This has changed the game for me...combining your own sample with their preset sounds. (WOW)
Yea I saw that!!😁 that is one of my favorite features! This was a game changer for me as well!!!
Hell yeah man, I’m loving this.
Yea bro, you were right😁😁 This one was needed!
Plugin. That opens in Kontakt.
So I call it a library.
Yea that’s true, it is kind of like a library of sounds that opens in Kontakt. Hopefully they add some additional expansions and sounds to the playbox. Thank you for commenting
Man this Plugin is so sick. I've been playing with this so much over the last couple of days and to say it has made me switch up some of my sound is an understatement. Got to go and play some more haha. Peace and keep creating
lol yea it has really open the door to some new possibilities for me as well. This is definitely my new Go to for getting started. Thank you commenting and let me know how the journey goes😁
Yup. I'm loving Playbox. Loved Arcade too but hated having to download new sounds all the time.
Hey thanks for commenting! 🙏🏾 Yea I definitely know what you mean lol 😂
Love it. I love seeing how absorbed you got and probably forgot the camera was on. That's real. Subscribed.
Thank you so much! Yea this stuff is pretty fun and cool and I absolutely love it! This plugin definitely surprised me lol 😂
Yo, thanks for the video - you actually can map Playbox straight to your Maschine Pad layout in the menu behind the little gear icon on the upper right ;)
Thank you for commenting and for that tip! Definitely going to try it out today!
I bought this the day it came out. Still great. Just bought EFX Fragments, and these two go together so well. best two VST in a long time
Good stuff! Ima have to check out EFX Fragments. Who makes it?
@@creativedwill Arturia. It applies granular effects to whatever you run through it
@@rossfarrell1534 that sounds super dope! Ima have to check this out! Good look 😊
Dope! Ima check it out🙏🏾
This was tight bro. I watched the demo. It is a dope plugin
Thanks bro!!
I gotta get this........Great vid as always man! Yes sir! $149 though..........
I know that price tag is a little high lol. It’s technically $199 😂 You might as well wait for when they release the next Komplete bundle and get it then.
@@creativedwill Facts. But we'll see. I might and might not! But the bundle would be sweet!
I wasn’t too sure to buy it until I watched your review, your reactions just say it all haha! Love how buzzing you are with every sound haha. Respect!
Thank you 🙏🏾 Yeah I think this is probably the best Plugin from NI ever. This is still my favorite
Is it dope?
Playbox is super dope! I absolutely love it! Native Instruments is having a 50% sale right now! If you thinking about getting it right now is the time😁😁
Really great stuff, man! I enjoy your delivery and how you approach your videos. Compared to a lot of other TH-cam creators reviewing these Native Instrument plugins (and I've combed through a bunch), you've got a really good ear for sounds/chord progressions. I'm likely going to purchase the Music Essentials Bundle deal they have going on right now for $49 because of this demo & your Duets one. It seems like for this plugin alone, it's worth the $49. Would you agree?
Hey thank you for commenting!!🙏🏾 I really appreciate your encouragement! Yeah, that is an amazing deal and it’s definitely worthwhile. Playbox alone is worth that much in my opinion. Let me know how you like it when you get it!!!
@@creativedwill thanks brother for the quick reply! Keep up the dope work.
Great video man. Just subscribed to your channel. I use midi chord progressions, I don't have a keyboard, and when I drag my midi chords to this plugin it only plays some of my chords, not all of them... it's getting confusing. I use FL STUDIO 20 . Can anybody help me with this issue please?
Thank you so much I truly appreciate it!🙏🏾 That is a very good question. I haven’t done much with the Midi feature of this plugin. Have you tried to disable the EFX at the bottom to see if that’s the issue? Maybe one of the effects might be causing it to not play all the way through. Just a thought, I’m not sure if that’s your issue though. Again thanks for commenting and please let me know what you find out
Thanks!
Wow thank you!!! You are awesome!!
I’m still having issues setting it up
What issues
@@creativedwill I just got to where I can play with it on my maschine.
I love the way you were getting shocked and speechless at every juncture
This plugin is super dope!!😊
You probably gonna pee on yourself when I tell you though midi you can bring in your own samples 😁
lol I was super excited 😆 Man yea I saw that! This plugin is one of my favorites from Native!
@@creativedwill I made that comment while watching, I will add Native Instruments and Output are kinda in a corporate war with Landr in the middle. It's not just a corporate war but also a battle for the city. Native Instruments is based in Hollywood, Output is just down the way in Downtown LA, and Landr is Santa Monica. PlayBox is Native Instrument's answer Output's Arcade and Landr just released its sample-based program that looks weird and uninteresting to me. For me, Native Instruments takes the W for this battle, two subscription-based programs vs. a pay once and done VST. All and all, when these companies compete, we win.
I didn’t know that! That’s dope information. I can see that this was a direct answer to Arcade. Yea I think they got the W as well. Especially for all that you get even if you do the subscription. I personally prefer to buy my plugins straight up. But I really rock with Arcade so I broke down and start a subscription. But with this I am thinking about ending my subscription.
Great Demo!!!!! I am getting this!!!!... 😎
Thank you! It’s worth it!!😁
Yeah!!!!!!...The possibilities with this....Wow!!!
Yep!😁
I feel super excited about this just like you. It seems like people don't quite get it yet. When I thought to myself, "man, I wish Omnisphere had some of these features," that's when I knew this was the best thing in a long time.
Same here!! I swear if Omnisphere added some of these features it would kill the game. I really feel NI got it right with this one. I’m interested in seeing where they go from here. Making this the standard and expanding it. The ability to play individual notes would make this literally perfect. But I’m definitely it complaining! Thank you for commenting🙏🏾
My playbox crashes everytime l try to open it .
Hey thank you for commenting🙏🏾 I would reach out to NI tech support to see if they could assist with you pin pointing the issue.
Should you spend the 150 or get the komplete now
Hey thank you for commenting!🙏🏾 that is a good question. I personally spent the $150 to get this. I think if you already have a lot of the NI products then paying the $150 straight up is the way to go. But if your just getting started and want to get a feel for NI products or just want to try things out then I would pay for the Komplete now subscription, because I believe it comes with this and a lot of other plugins which is a great deal in my opinion. If I’m not mistaken you can cancel the subscription so if you don’t like it then your good. I Just love NI products so I took the chance 😂
this plugin looks insane. great video demonstration
Yea it is definitely interesting! I’m still trying to figure it out. It’s super dope so far😁 thank you for commenting 🙏🏾
using the sounds as simple one shots can make an already amazing plugin into something way more useful, hope they add it in an update
Yea that would be a super dope feature! Thank you for commenting
@@creativedwill aye no problem man keep it up
I got the VST up and running but I have a breaking issue. When most FX presets are loaded and the synth tries to play, the gain levels red line and all the music stops. It resets after a few seconds but if the FX setting in question is still in use, the system will overload again and repeat. If I turn off all of the FX, the synth will play. If I turn on the FX but disable the effects Tape, Charge & Reverb - the synth will play.
(Using "A Cute Piano" global preset for reference)
I've narrowed it down to something within the FX section of Playbox overloading the input. I have a beefy system running on 64-bit. CPU level barely goes above 5%. 32GB @ 3600
Have you run into this? Any ideas of what could be causing this issue?
I've been dying to sink my teeth into this thing and it's killing me being so handicapped with it! Thanks in advance
Hey, thanks for commenting!🙏🏾 No I have not run into this issue. Have you tried Reinstalling it through Native access to see if it corrects the issue?
@@creativedwill No, thank you for the speedy reply!
I hadn't 🤦♂️.. but I have now - and no such luck still. Same issue. Google is coming up pretty dry as well - probably due to Playbox being so new.
I appreciate the suggestion nonetheless!
Dang man I’m sorry. I know that must sucks, especially when you get a new plugin. I’m all out of ideas lol. Please let me know if you figure out what it is. Try and post this question in one of the Native Instruments user groups on Facebook. Also, reach out to NI tech support, they may have a work around. I know they had a few issues when the plugin in was first released. Sorry I wasn’t more help..
@@creativedwill still, great suggestions. I shall 100. Ty again 🙏
Lores buddy. Lores is their best yet.
Really!!?!? I haven’t tried it yet! I might have to get it and do a review! Thank you for commenting
@@creativedwill Bro I have never ever been this impressed by NI.
@@Drfresh1402 Bro!!! Im bout to have to go get this!!! 😁 I was gonna skip this one but you just sold me lol!!!
*Jeff Gibbons :-) not Gibson
My apologies 😁
Idk 🤷🏾♂️ I can’t dig it 😞 to much going on
I feel you. Thank you for commenting🙏🏾
The beauty is that you can reduce the sounds and samples in the chords to meet your needs. Any random combo can be customised, it just sets you off on a different path and you can take it where you want it. It is definitely a slightly different workflow but has given me loads of ideas and is pretty fun :)
Yea, so far it has given me loads of ideas as well. I’m finding that this is a perfect starting point for any project. It’s different but definitely very useful!!
@@creativedwill I’ll have to check it out, it’s just a little different to me lol.
Let me know when you do and if you change your mind😁
