    Hello all!

    Im finally about to update to v.6 and just wanted to double check before buying / installing anything. I have some projects im working on which relies heavily on Reaktor 5, so I havent updated my machine in a while since im terrified of installing anything Reaktor-related that could compromise my projects in any way. Until recently I did not know that Reaktor 6 apparently will be installed as a whole new program. So, can I safely go ahead and update or is there anything I should be aware of before installing Reaktor 6 on my (Win 7) system?

    Thanks

    Okay so you guys have both 5 and 6 installed on your machines? Maybe I overlooked something, but I think NI could be a little more clear about this and that v.6 actually gets installed as a whole new product and can live side by side with older versions.

    Thank you for your replies. Highly appreciated:-D

    no problem at all, Reaktor 6 is a new installation and both 5 and 6 versions can work on the same system ;)
