The samples with 2, while not as many as were in 1, supplement the 1 library well and I feel are a bit better ( and I already loved the geist 1 samples). It also makes my life a lot easier to be able to adjust the pad parameters in the same screen as the sequencer as opposed to Geist 1 where you need to change tabs from the pattern editor to the pad parameters. Editing has been easier for lads as well for me with the new workflow of having the articulation lane for the current selected track show below the step sequencer whereas in Geist 1 it was all inline in the step sequencer with a drop down toggle. My typical workflow is using the song mode to transition between patterns. The individual lane repeat slider also made polyrhythms a lot simpler since you don’t need to use a different engine lane just to change the number of steps for a pad.

They made modulation parameters a lot easier which has allowed me to dial in more dynamic parts. My usage is sequencing beats for full electronic songs and it meets my needs very well. I used Geist 1 for a couple years and the upgraded to 2 before I read this thread.
