Ironically, going by the train of thought that many seem to have in this thread, Cakewalk should have never bothered to develop and include those tools either b/c there are already third party options available.  They should've spent their development time and resources on other things instead.



Now let's get to the heart of why the premise "They should've spent their development time and resources on other things instead" is flawed.


I think you mistook my comment for my own personal thoughts.  I was giving an example of how the logic that some users have can be applied to other areas as well.  I don't personally share that same train of thought.

 
Thanks for the clarification. You can then assume those comments were for the users who follow the logic you delineated

Fair enough.  It was an insightful post nonetheless, with some good information though.  Thanks.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Geist yet. 



Well they have now - over and over again, so l downloaded the Geist 2 demo to give it a run in the studio this morning. Now I am set to be $261.70 poorer. Damn this eternal thread and then whine it rode in on! 
 
Very cool.

Hey, remember that instrument I proposed several posts back? Here it is, have fun! It actually does more than the original proposal. like visual pitch transposition.

Sorry guys, didn't mean to sound so flippant before, I use the step sequencer if I need something like that which is so rarely that I didn't think about how some of you use them a lot. If I don't use instruments, I program in MIDI and do it without even thinking about it anymore. Just to me it is as fast as if not faster than running a sequencer or several of them and if I need to I trigger, I trigger everything out of MIDI also, so I guess my opinion in this subject has no value. Again I apologize.

You can also go to www.di.fm and check out pretty much every EDM style. There are a zillion sub-genres and mutated species...

I saw this coming. Not Cyclone specifically, but when you said "what if I proposed," I had a feeling that a tutorial for existing tools was forthcoming.
 
I'm not complaining. It was kind of you to put it together. However, I don't think Cakewalk will be winning anyone over with 15 year old DirectX instruments.

Well, Ableton Live still has the same proprietary instruments since it started, an nobody seems to complain. Some of them are even licensed from other vendors (AAS). They are improving Simpler, that is not new AFAIK, and making its integration with Push a selling point for the software. And let's not start about Reason :)
