REAKTOR-COMMUNITY

I don't see it as a reward. I see it as a need.

sometimes there's just not much to say about some things. presets are things i've not even downloaded, since i only somewhat recently finished downloading the synths and such and exploring them. There's just SO MUCH content. i feel bad when i notice i downloaded something and didn't rate it, let alone leaving comments. How many times can you say "Gee, thanks for sharing..." i know it would be nice to get a "hey, patch 25 is totally freakin' excellent and fits exactly the mood i needed for my project..." etcetera. But, it's not just a matter of taking and not giving. You don't give with expectations of reward. That's called trade. This is about sharing. Sometimes sharing is just one way. i'm terribly thankful to all the people who have built stuff and uploaded it for me to play with. Lots of it i end up not being impressed by because it's another one of "those" and i have six of "those" already. Why comment if i'm just going to say "gee, thanks, but why not make something different?"

No...... i quit uploading.There's just no point if nobodys going to say anything.I've been looking around.... the situations a little better for synths(but still far from healthy)but for soundbanks...... I was looking at one of david coffins soundbanks.Almost 600 downloads and still only 5 comments(2 of them mine). I might as well go and paint a picture in a cave, in a desert, on another planet, at a different moment in time, in a different universe.Maybe it's because the majority of users don't upload themselves ? Or maybe 90 percent of users don't read or write english ? Maybe i upload again in a few years..... ............."but don't hold your breath".

Or in other words it's ok to take and use..... and it's ok to not give the simplest of little things in return.It's not as if i didn't say please.

Thank you both.Yes i shall have to get over the fact or quit uploading..... very simple really.I do find the situation very sad though. People have an hour or more to go through the download but don't have five minutes to leave a comment.

hi David, as the saying goes: "Undank ist der Welten Lohn." don't get annoyed about not much comments, have fun by doing your work. if you had 300 downloads be shure that someone has pleasure with your stuff.

the Reaktor Forum, is there for people who have a question about how to build something in Reaktor, or to report a bug, or to share their frustration because no one leaves comments in the User Library (yes people have done that).in fact the forum is for anything about/to do with Reaktor. people, don't leave comments here becuase they are lazy/busy/can't be bothered/never leave comments/etc, etc. my feeling about this, is i share stuff that i have created. i have a take it or leave it attitude. if people like it, great! if they don't, i am not going to get upset. to clarify, i would never build something for an upload if i didn't use it myself. so i work my ass off to make something special for me, and then share it.

Cheers phil.If your still with me, can i ask you a couple of things ? What do people do in the forum ? If you remember i don't have access. And is it becuase of what people do in the forum that no one leaves any comments ? I think the comment situation is stupid.I've got almost 300 downloads for my skrewell snaps and still only one comment.It' not like the bank is lacking any subject matter for people to leave a thoughtfull comment.What's the point of working your ass off to make something special and then no one says anything ? Im spending two weeks away from the library as of today but look forward to your thoughts on return. And if anyone else is reading and would like to say something....... feel free.

to clarify... in the Reaktor 3 i remember having problems with snapshot saving between instruments. that was really buggy the snapshot system for R5 has really evolved and there are also many other differences elsewhere in the strucure and coding of Reaktor. btw, i think there is very little chance of NI sorting out this problem. oh yes, my other point is: making snaps with a R5.1.1 version of this ensemble and uploading those new snaps, should work.

No.....i didn't try to hard to be honest though.I think i'm gona spend a week or two away from the library.Maybe NI can sort it out by then.

I'm not completely sure what your saying here phil.I shall try what i think your saying tonight.Don't bother putting to much effort in..... it's native instruments problem(i think),it's up to them to sort it out.I wasn't happy with the snaps anyway.If i'm going to do wavescanner i'll start off fresh. I'm used to losing my work....i started out on music 2000 ,it's no big deal this time.

i remember having problems transfering snaps with Reaktor 3. i have just saved the bank from the uploaded wavescanner 2 and then loaded it into back 2. all the snaps worked. maybe you need to programme a fresh bunch of snaps in R5.1.1 and save them?
