Why don't sample library makers support stylus.

| Stylus has to the best tool to use loops so that you can easily change any hit , steal groove templates and just all around a million times better for loops than Kontakt. It has been bugging me for a while. It is simply an amazing plugin allowing you to easily trigger any loop like it was a kit so that you don't have to actually use the original loop which is something everyone wants. IT would be nice to see more material for stylus. It is easily one of the best plugins of the last decade. |

ILIO makes several libraries in Stylus format, as does Nine Volt Audio and a few others. Many of the Loopmasters products are available in Stylus format as well:

Also, Stylus comes with the SAGE Converter, so you can easily batch-convert any REX loops to Stylus format. And, you can use Propellerheads' ReCycle to convert almost any loop (e.g., WAV) to REX format and import it to Stylus RMX via the SAGE Converter. |

The new Chaos Designer for one - it's a very useful set of features for altering, humanizing, randomizing, simplifying, changing meter, etc.
Also, if you're using Omnisphere or Trilian, you can drag/drop any Stylus file into the Groove-Lock window of Omni/Trilian's arp and have the arp pattern match the groove of the Stylus pattern. It's a very cool feature IMO. |

it is time consuming and you have to mess around with parameters to get things right. Stylus is great for so many reason. There are so many great groove templates you can extrapolate. It also allows for easy file keeping. |
