The best

Sphere V3

Customer photo review of Sphere V3

I love all the different movements and colors. I add sphere v3 to each one of my projects now as a visualizer. What I think would be a really cool update would be different shaped to mess with pyramids, cubes, etc. great work so far. I really dig it.

Customer photo review of Sphere V3

a great product : You have put the finger in a rabbit hole as the possibilities are endless like as proven by Touchdesigner. This fills a gap of : . VST video plugins for sync to audio . easier programing than other plugins. Improvement points : . more "canvasses" . sharper reactive engine.

Customer video review of Sphere V3

What a great update. Loving the visuals, soooo good, tried on a ceiling projector as limited for space in here and decided to make a pepper ghost, why not😜 version 1 , gonna need a bigger dome. Go big or go home. It’s just a joy to have and watch whilst making music and getting the vibe. Would be a great addition if you could fit to screen and maybe lose the white bar at the top 👍

Customer video review of Sphere V3

Nice vibe when jamming in Ableton and can have flubber dance along. Would be improved with a 2d option and being able to set an LFO style modulator rather than purely sound reactive.

Sphere V3

Store owner replied: Thank you for sharing, I know the feeling :) You can actually set LFO s from your DAW to any parameter, they are all available for automation or MIDI mapping. Enjoy!

Customer photo review of Sphere V3

Incredibly, it has become a source of inspiration. I've always liked visualizing the music I make in my mind. Now I can see it and even find inspiration in the shapes it creates when reacting to the music. The Lagoon preset is by far my favorite. I wish it had an option for auto-resizing with a double-click on the bar, but it's not a deal-breaker.

great evolution for Sphere

Sphere V3

Customer photo review of Sphere V3

It would be very useful if Sphere V3 could be triggered directly from Ableton’s transport, so recording always starts at exactly the same position. This would make it much easier to create multiple visual versions and align them later in any video editing software.

Nice plugin to build reactive visuals to my audios.

Sphere V3

I think its a fantastic visualizer. However both my friend and i bought it, hoping for transparent background in order to fully utilize it for in depth mp4 video creation.

Sphere V3

Store owner replied: Oh that s a great idea and an easy fix... I think. We will add it to the next point update. Will brief our Dev.

A very interesting piece of software : interface is great, a lot of parameters on colours. It would be great to have more control on the reaction parameters (eg +/- responses speed or amplitude), other shapes or even working on specific imported images areas.

Sphere V3

feels limited but the price was right

Sphere V3

Love it only criticism would be a community preset option ??

I'm very much in the early stages of playing with Sphere. So far, I'm loving it. I need to spend far more time with it and I hope to do this in the coming weeks.

Sphere V3

Upgrading was simply a no-brainer for me. All these fantastic new options make it quite a quantum leap. A marvelous playground I can´t wait to explore - big thx for this outstanding work!

Sphere V3

A phenomenal improvement over the previous V2 edition of this plugin. I'm a sucker for a cool visualizer, and you definitely stepped it up a notch with V3 of Sphere. Looks very, very nice.

Sphere V3

Great Visualizer PlugIN.

Sphere V3

Really love Sphere v3. What a great introduction to Rapid Flow, with it's beautiful graphics, artistic AND funtional UI/UX that also doesn't get in the way! The design is just very well thought out and complete. This group is definately doing things right. Well done!

This is by far the best plugin I have bought for a long time. It's absolute fire for creating catchy melodies and basslines that I would never even think of trying to program in piano roll etc. It's also wicked for creating complex drum patterns in just a few clicks. Awesome job guys. Thanks

An absolutely essential plugin when it comes to mixing and mastering a track! I love how you can have up to 5 references and play them back in real time by just switching between them. This has doubled my mixing workflow when mixing and made producing the final track so easier! 10 out 10 stars!

Customer photo review of omniGRID

Answering requests for feedback is usually not something that I want to waste my time on, but for you I gladly make an exception. Working with Omnigrid and Zensphere in combination with the DNA master chain and RapidFlow templates has been really enlightening. What a joy! I am re-discovering working in session view. I used to work in arrangement view most of the time, but I definitely see the advantages of using session view the way you propose. Omnigrid provides an unlimited amount of options for sequencing. I started using it in combination with GrooveAgent for drum sequencing and Zensphere for melodic sequences for example. Omnigrid challenged me to start making more use of midi mapping than I did before so I am getting to know Ableton Live much better too. I love the extremely low amount of cpu usage of Zensphere compared to Serum and Diva. The included sounds offer enough options to experiment with. The RapidFlow referencing plugin offers more information at a glance and is way more intuitive to use than what I was used to until now. There is still a lot to figure out and explore like sound design and customization of the templates and the DNA masterchain to my likings but I can already tell you that I love making music that way. Very inspiring indeed! 🫶🏼

Customer photo review of omniGRID

It’s taken me a great deal of tutorial-watching, manual-reading, and hours of just trying crazy stuff, but I’m at the point where I can start to make some headway with OMNIGRID, especially combined with RF’s Infinity Bundle and the DNA Suite (see photo). I do appreciate the Beginners level videos you’ve made about these new tools just recently. It’s because of those that I had some idea how to get going. Because the written documentation has been almost no use at all. The text refers to features of Ableton that I couldn’t find, even when stepping through those instructions one line at a time. And please update your instructions on instruments, instrument tracks, MIDI tracks, and audio tracks. I wasted hours and hours trying to figure out exactly where to put everything, and how to get the routing to work. Wasn’t fun. Strongly considered asking for a refund. HOWEVER, I did get it to work. In the photo I sent, I’m in the process of making dub techno. And it was actually starting to sound about right! There needs to be an easier way to stop the host and the plugin playing back simultaneously. Looking forward to version 3.0! Warmly, Adrian Bedford (who sometimes uses his wife Michelle’s credit card. But it’s all just me. Hi! :)

Customer photo review of True AB Referencing

When you’re making dance music, especially trance, progressive house and anything built around a proper low-end, you can spend hours tweaking a mix and convince yourself it sounds incredible. Then you play it against a professionally mastered record, and suddenly you realise your kick is too heavy, your top end is harsh, or your whole mix lacks the weight and definition you thought it had. That’s where Rapid Flow True AB Referencing comes into its own. The first thing that stands out is the spectrum comparison. Having two tracks displayed together makes it much easier to spot differences in the overall tonal balance. You can see where your bass energy sits, how the mids are behaving, and whether your high frequencies are getting carried away. It’s particularly useful when you’re working on that tight, driving low end that trance and progressive house depend on. I also like the fact that it brings several analysis tools together in one place. Spectrum, correlation, stereo image, dynamics and loudness are all accessible from the same interface. Rather than constantly jumping between different plugins, you have a central point for checking how your mix compares with a reference. The reference library is another practical feature. Being able to load different records and switch between them is useful when you're trying to understand why one track feels huge and open, while another sounds thin or congested. For electronic music, I’d be comparing against properly mastered records in the same ballpark as my own production, not some random track from a completely different genre. But here's the important bit: the analyser is a guide, not a mixing engineer. A spectrum curve isn't a recipe for a professional master. A record with a massive bass peak isn't necessarily better than one with a tighter, more controlled low end. Different arrangements, kicks, basslines and mastering choices will produce different curves. And if you haven't level-matched your reference properly, you can end up making the wrong decisions simply because the louder track sounds more impressive.

First of all, giving this to the community as you did is 5 stars alone...especially for those of us in countries with horrendous exchange rates (Kenya). Secondly, to have THIS plugin do more than the other 'popular' one in my arsenal is pure gold. Third, the functionality just pushed my mixing skills to the international stage! Most importantly to me currently is that my old Macbook Pro 2014 on Big Sur, which often flatlines my CPU usage at the sight of a third party plugin is BARELY using any memory. You can literally see it in the screenshot! THANK YOU RAPID FLOW!

You literally saved my life and my mixes. As a music producer it's always a bother to setup monitoring (cause I primarily use headphones) to know how your mix & masters are against references.

True AB by Rapid Flow has quickly replaced my previous EQ reference plugin. It outperforms other market leaders thanks to several standout features: • Real-time visual feedback for both active and reference tracks • Seamless level matching • Delta monitoring • Support for up to 5 reference tracks simultaneously

Customer video review of True AB Referencing

It's awesome, autogain is a bit finicky, maybe add different modes? Like one for, peak, rms, etc, some filtering options - being able to hone in on any part of the spectrum, compare lows, high mids etc, stereo image, correlation and dynamics would be great, also different slope options, I prefer 4.5, and optimised sync...
