Has anyone tried this? I read a couple places that all the sample stretching sounds the same regardless of the sample, so never took the plunge on it

@teebacca and @jorge, as we haven’t seen anyone weigh in on this, I thought it would be helpful to run a sentiment analysis of Sampleson Scaper. These analyses use AI to examine the relevant posts at the popular plugin, gear, and composing forums and groups on the major social media platforms to understand and summarize positive and negative opinions and comparisons of plugins, sample libraries, DAWs, and software.

This is great Peter, lots of value in something like this and very informative. I’m a big user of Paul X-stretch, so with that being free, I wanted to see this as an upgrade of sorts. The UI is nice, but based on reports it sounds like it repetitively kicks out similar sounding soundscapes every time with no granularity or control. Paul gives a lot of that so i may stick to my guns here. Still curious to hear feedback from any others here if someone ends up buying it.

That said, this analysis was very helpful thanks Peter

I look at the value of the sentiment analysis as providing everyone with a quick way to understand what users have expressed via posts in forums about the plugins, sample libraries, DAWs, software, services, or hardware that we are researching. Ideally, community members who’ve used the products or services could add to that and respond to specific questions. In this case, the plugin isn’t very popular, so I wouldn’t expect we’d see many — if any — members of our communities weigh in on it. That gave me a little extra motivation to run a sentiment analysis and look across all the major plugin, composer, and gear forums, and the groups on the major social media platforms.

The concept is this: find a simple way to summarize what current users of the product or service think of it as a starting point and then our community can share their own experiences on top of that. This enables people researching products and services to be less reliant on compensated parties like influencers promoting products and not providing unbiased opinions (although, part of the game is sell themselves as unbiased, of course, they’re the farthest thing from unbiased). As our community grows, we’ll be adding more tools that capture our experience and provide it back to the community in useful ways, but we’ll need to grow this community a bit before we reach that point. Until then, I think these analyses — which are technically sentiment analyses that marketing/brand researchers use to better understand the brand image, that is, how consumers think of the brand — will be a valuable resource that isn’t available at other forums. It analyzes, summarizes and categortizes what people who’ve bought and use products and services think.

The reality is, forums in this industry — more and more — are engaging in using shills / compensated parties / contractors to participate in online forums posing as regular users PLUS they’re compensating frequent posters with free products (NFRs) to get them to talk up products. While there’s no way to weed that out, the best solution when our community is still growing, is to look at a larger number of forums and groups in the big social media platforms. That is what this does.

At minimum, you can see it as saving anyone using it many hours of scouring the big online forums, and relevant groups on the major social media platforms to find what users of the product or service of interest have to say about it.
