    Massive is amazing. Had it two days and it's rocketed to the top as my favourite soft synth of all time. There isn't anything major I'm unhappy about but there are a few minor issues that might be nice to change:

    * I'd like it if you couldn't manipulate controls in modules that aren't on. For example, if Filter 1 isn't active, then it'd be nice if the controls were disabled. I repeatedly find myself manipulating knobs for several moments with no effect before I realize the module is off.

    * It'd be nice if the inserts and FX were unified into just general DSP slots, 1-4, that each have all combined algorithms and can be placed anywhere in the routing that you can currently place the inserts and global FX.

    * As far as I can tell, you can only have modulations that are positive or negative offsets, not any that are centered on the current knob position. I think I would have preferred it if you could assign this, for example, right now you drag up on a modulation source number under a knob for a positive range, and down for a negative range; I'd like it if dragging up increased the range, centered around the current knob position, and down decreased it. Then dragging right could shift the range to positive and left could shift it negative.

    * I'd like a slightly more streamlined appearance for the modulation assignments. My choice would be to have the slots grow as needed. For example, right now, under filter cutoff, there are three assignment boxes, even with no assignments made. I'd prefer if there was only 1 visible box when there are no active assignments. When you create an assignment, a new empty box is added, so you always have a new place to put an assignment but you avoid the visual clutter of all those empty boxes in the UI.

    * Of course, it would be nice to have more routing options. I like the mostly-fixed nature of the architecture, but having a few different routing structures to select between would be fun.

    * On the routing page, it seems like one of the oscillators always has to be in bypass mode? Not sure why that would be, but I can never click off the bypass button, only choose which oscillator is bypassing. That seems a little silly.

    So those are all small issues, overall this thing is incredible. Hats off to NI for superb job.
