![]() ![]() Specific updates in Trapcode Suite 16 include Trapcode Particular’s new ‘Emit From Parent System’, which makes it possible to have particles that emit complete emitters. Easily set up emitter chains, or have multiple systems emit from one source. For the first time ever, it is also possible to combine air and bounce physics for more realistic, complex effects. Also new are Particular’s powerful Flocking simulation tools, including automatic behaviours that take particle animation to a new level. ![]() Use Attract and Separate tools to define how much the particles want to be near each other. ![]() Other additions include the ability to add up to 16 emitters in the same 3D space, a new Velocity Over Life Tool, over 75 new presets and C4D file import. New in Magic Bullet Suite 14 is Magic Bullet Looks 5. The controller is well built and compact enough to throw in your backpack and take to live shows or studios. It is completely USB powered and doesn’t require any lengthy setup process. As long as its connected and FL Studio is running on your computer, it will work. An introductory edition of the DAW is even included with the controller. There are four main modes for Akai’s Fire. Step mode lets you step sequence parts directly on the Channel Rack in FL Studio. There's a Note mode for melodic or harmonic part recording and a Drum mode that is built for FPC but works with any drum sampler/synth that responds to MIDI. Not many people know this but FL Studio has a performance mode very similar to Ableton Live’s Session View. It does take some time to set up a session in this mode but it works quite well. There are four dedicated touch sensitive endless encoders that are assigned to control various aspects of the software like volume, panning, note velocity and so on. There’s also a user mode for the encoders so you can map any control to them directly. ![]() If you are expecting to work on the Fire controller without ever looking at the computer, that might not be possible unless you prepare the session beforehand. Its main sequencer buttons also lack velocity sensitivity. The rubberized pads have a nice feel and velocity sensitivity would make them even better. ![]()
