How different is XLN Life from loopmix? Check it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3iWn2uvhZekoLM

[@crazygooner3398]

XLN Audio does it again! Amazing!

[@guestlistrecords1466]

you are ALWAYS on it !So glad I subscribe to your channel. I downloaded the plugin and used the phone app. WHY WHY WHY COOL!! record things on the street and had LOTS of fun!!!

[@whitenoisestudio]

It can absolutley do that!

[@bjamminsincebirth3494]

Seems cool but $149 🤷🏽‍♂️. Intro price $109 🤷🏽‍♂️. $49 yes please

[@bjamminsincebirth3494]

I have to retract my comments. I actually love it now. I use the trial maybe 2-3 days and bought it. There is so much good this app can do. I still think $149 is high but $109 is for sure reasonable!

[@APaclin]

It's $0 if you don't buy it 👍🏻

[@grungefire]

Thank you for this review. Got this yesterday and was messing around with it. Absolutely loved it. Now, watching your video, I’m like, “I can do that too?” Glad I’m subscribed. ❤

[@whitenoisestudio]

Glad it was helpful! How did you get it yesterday?

[@grungefire]

@@whitenoisestudio I’m in Japan. It was released around 5pm or so Japan time yesterday.

[@JayceDLOfficial]

I watched your video, purchased this immediately, and used it on my tracks.. Much thanks.

[@profoundofficial4801]

This would be perfect for future garage music 🔥

[@stillavenue]

So it’s like one of those old Pringles commercials in a plugin.

[@l3talchile]

Thanks for all Bro, regards from Chile 🫡🌎🏆👑

[@RayTheProducer]

Ok, this is brilliant. I can see entire songs being made this way: beatbox trap, here I come! 😅

[@whitenoisestudio]

Yup!

[@aemythjensen]

I like it but it's too expensive. I'll wait for next year's Black Friday deals. This year I bought XO for half the normal price, so I know they do lower their prices for Black Friday.

[@whitenoisestudio]

yeah, i think $109 is too much as well. Audiomodern's Loopmix is 44 dollars right now.

[@aemythjensen]

@@whitenoisestudio I already own Loopmix and love it

[@joshglock]

Half off right meow 👀

[@whitenoisestudio]

@joshglock thanks for sharing!

[@BigMTBrain]

Pretty amazing! It makes unique, pro-level beats from even silly, nonsensical recordings.

[@1314Ruben]

I'm testing the plugin but when I try to import audio into the plugin it says that the audio I'm importing is not an audio file. I tried loading wav and mp3 files, does anybody know why this happens??

[@whitenoisestudio]

No idea since I imported without any issue. What are the file formats? Try 24 bit and 16 bit files at 44,1 or 48 to see if that works.

[@tinkletink1403]

yep ...XLN are on a roll .... XO and now this ...very good

[@scottlarock7924]

You could add Soundpaint into this workflow, with the user import sampler, and make some fun instruments. * Came back to say that I recorded some chunks of NBA highlights. If you catch the announcer voice, it chops into nice little vocal bits that are unrecognizable. The crowd noise creates a little distortion and there's all sorts of other little artifacts that can rise up.

[@tendingtropic7778]

lovely, what are the main differences with loopmix from audiomodern?

[@whitenoisestudio]

Loopmix can do multiple audio wavs on multiple tracks and also more options to have the loops fit a certain tempo. with its x2 etc. With loopmix you can decide which parts you want randomized and which dont which mean you can more easily get variations o a certain loop with randomization. Life has better sounding randomization I think - sounds more musical right out of the box. Life has those two recording methods with the app and the life recorder which are pretty handy.

[@PittsMultiPass]

This is a clever creative tool for sure… but it seems overly expensive IMHO. I’m on the fence about the cost : value ration here.

[@saxyrep1]

I'm split on this one: I think the capture sound and direct cloud upload features are cool. It's convenient for using sounds you come across in your DAW with little to no effort. But that's only 20% of the plugin at most. The rest, step-sequencer, beat suggestion etc. is nothing special IMO. For 149€, or even 109€, I don't think it's worth it.

[@BILLYPATRON]

Is this a similar concept to Cubase Loopmash?

[@whitenoisestudio]

Yeah it is.

[@MIRAJADESIGN]

Not a toy, but incredibly fun to use!

[@whitenoisestudio]

yup!

[@timbeneton8068]

For this money I have BIG expectation!!! I would pay for it if it could do hi hats sounding natural. I mean open/close hi hats! And there should be thousands of presets

[@isaac.anthony]

It's like the Octatrack inside the DAW, with much more abilities and less limitations.

[@tobytodelafontena]

Audiomodern Loopmix does it for much less hype and price.

[@pitdope9922]

I think the recorder app and recorder pluging make a big difference. With the cloud sync option it just opens up so many possibilities and is super fast.

[@thobraa]

Read the license. Who owns the sounds you record?

[@whitenoisestudio]

Old news. Has long been changed so people wont draw the wrong conclusion.

[@thobraa]

@@whitenoisestudio it is being used for training their neural network. For free, sure I might join in. I own several xln products, I like their products but not paying to train their models or for them to make endless derivatives, ie giving them sounds, their model. The same product without giving away sounds is very interesting. I doubt you work for free. Did you pay for it?

[@isham16]

I believe the song you tried to play with is « fantastic voyage » did I win ?😊

[@whitenoisestudio]

You win a medal!

[@isham16]

I love this band ❤🎉 lakeside

[@86crush]

Devs are running out of ideas. Randomizer plugs end up on plugin boutique at 90% off 🤦🏻‍♂️ in theory a cool idea, but think outside the box on this and save yourself some money. Tap out some random patterns with your hands/fingers. (Example) record them (quality really doesn’t matter) Ableton create sampler with sounds of your choice. Convert audio to MIDI and you have your OWN MIDI generated rhythm pattern, playing whatever samples you want. Works wonders for drum fills 😉 take the $100 you saved and take your person out for a date 🤣

[@jocke1972]

The point with plugins like this is usually workflow and quickly/intuitively getting to creative results. I can probably replicate 90% plugins with eq, compression, saturation and daw editing/automation

[@86crush]

@@jocke1972 there are too many of these kinds of plugins. Straight up cash grabs. Even if this was free, it would just be a plugin anyone used once…and likely never again.

[@scottlarock7924]

I have to say that maybe the main draw for me is removing as much editing as I have to do. I am keyboard and mouse and to me audio editing is grueling on the desktop. You can quickly drag the stems into your DAW, as well as the midi. I'm not convinced that it can totally provide this, but it looks like it might do the trick. I do also enjoy using Foley sounds, so this is up my alley. I run a kitchen store and spent 20 minutes going around sampling. It was quite a treat to come home and sit down at the computer and be off and running.

[@vin3421]

Wow you must be fun at parties ;) I love the idea of seamlessly making beats with field recording with my phone. Probably the most inspiring plugin I’ve seen. A lot different concept than tapping a beat and converting it to midi and loading samples…

[@86crush]

@@vin3421 it’s your money brother 🤣

[@Sinnersainthuman]

Dunno how I feel about it. Everyone is gonna sound the same ha! Other than that, they own the rights to your creations. Not good

[@pitdope9922]

What rights? To your recorded noise loops?

[@thobraa]

@@pitdope9922 to train their neural network models. So paying them for giving them sounds for free.

[@WhoMichaelWho]

At the end of the day it still is only a drumbeat, the least important part of a song.

[@MULTIMAN-MUSIC]

That’s where inspiration comes in, I’m already thinking about using this with melodic loops to create talking synths.

[@JohnnyVbeats]

Should be $40 at most. Very basic plugin and everything always comes out sounding very similar.

[@Byron101_]

don´t think so. It´s more a toy. for people without creativity... 🤣

[@whitenoisestudio]

lol.

[@leafygreensmusic]

Upload some beats so we can flame you when you commenting Byron and Yenke
