Reaktor 6
Subtractive

DESCRIPTION

A conventional synth for leads and bass sounds. Multiple outputs from its two oscillators are combined with a pair of vector mixers, and then filtered, delayed and reverberated. A hybrid chorus /tremolo effect is also provided to add further interest.

Modulation is available in the form of LFOs and envelopes, in some instances these are controlled with the mod wheel. An Axis block allows some control over the stereo field, which can be used for a variety of auto-panning type effects.

Thanks to Michael Hetrick, Marius H, Sandy Small, Benjamin Poddig, Stephan Schmitt, and Matthew Friedrichs for parts used.

Some lovely sounds here.Just spent the last 20 minutes improvising for fun using the presets and twiddling the knobs occasionally. Thanks for the treat. A cool addition to my sonic resources.

I love the complexity of it all, fulfills my inner need for micromanagement.

True! I'm trying to embrace the complexity.

i dont know why but i dont buy this "block" thing N.I. is pushing....i think reaktor was already complicated enough not to add another "layer" to it......frankly i feel the pain of a new user who is starting reaktor with version6 : primary , core , macro , instrument , ensemble , and now blocks to thow a little more confusion on all that....c'mon.........ah and i forgot ; presets or snapshot ???? COME ON !!!

That's okay, I could tell you were just venting. My answer might have been a bit over dramatic, I shouldn't have said I'm not that great of a programmer.. Just that blocks is where my talents lie, for some strange reason. No hard feelings.

sorry Brett but it was not for you "personaly",it was more a general comment about blocks.......but this comment box put all my sentencez in one block (no pun...) and now it looks like it was adressed to you personaly....sorry 4 that...

Thanks for the feedback! I'll try to keep the CPU use low in the future! A polyphonic ensemble is definitely something I am interested in making, but for now I'm enjoying blocks a bit. They let me get much more creative with Reaktor than I ever could before, since I am not that great of a programmer. I am learning all the time though, so keep on the lookout for more by me!

this one is fabulous brett well done thx but i hate all this block crap blocks are just cpu pigs that sucks my quad core ,that can send ship to mars , for breakfast... it doesn't give anything new to reaktor except a new layer of complexity and completly kill the ens/ism part of reaktor... Do people completly forgot we can build polyphonic ens in reaktor?
