    I can name plenty. It's not uncommon now that manuals are digital and not included in the box. The Maschine MK3 is a prime example, here's a source for that: https://www.native-instruments.com/forum/threads/mk3-user-manual-release-date.322175/

    This is especially important with the controller, where you also have a physical interface to learn in addition to all the features of the software.

    In that thread they said that "To get rid of it there are various filtering, oversampling": Massive X doesn't have further Oversampling, and filtering would kill the harmonics.
    It's also written: "Aliasing is a big part of what makes those old samplers and digital synths sound the way they do", I am not sure if I wish an old digital synth when I look for Massive, this is what I look from FM8, but from Massive serie I am looking for a modern sound.
    Although those two aspects seem a little contradicting, I agree the thread in general

    Aaaaand the videos are unlisted now. Good.

    Old samplers and digital synths had much, MUCH louder aliasing artifacts than MX.

    https://app.box.com/s/z1vrk9p037ggh8nwlejz2iy6ir6ef0pt

    This is a 48k, 24-bit WAV file that does a 96 semitone pitch bend all the way up to Nyquist. Do you HEAR any nasty inharmonic aliasing in it? Make sure NOT to listen in web browser's audio player, download the file and listen it with audio player. And of course set your audio interface to 48k.

    I agree, I didn't want to say that Massive X has the same level, I just feel a little contradicting in that thread the idea that Serum and Massive-like wave-table synths are trying to resemble the old digital synth sound

    boring is subjective, not colored/warm from the osc is true, if you want crisp you have to get it later on the fx chain.
