Synth Sounds - What Am I Hearing

Hi, so not sure where to put this under as its not really a support call for Reaktor but more general.

I have been learning Reaktor and using the various Bento, Boutique and Kodiak oscillators and filters and trying out different sounds. I am starting to make stuff that in starting to be usable, but what I am finding is everything I am making had a quasi 70s / 80s analogue "retro" sound or NIN sounding -- which is cool, but not what I am after. I am not able to make sounds that are hear in the old Massive. In the old Massive I am seeing oscillators such as polysaw and additivemix. Is the reason for this that Massive has a different generation of oscillators and filters than whats in Reaktor or I just need to keep experimenting. One example that I am trying to re-create in Reaktor is the Into Deep present which has 3 oscillators, a couple of filters and a couple of effects.

Just curious.

Try Richard Devine's Block patches, please.

 

70s/80s/analoge Synths are using "standard oscillators" (saw/sine/square/triangle...). massive uses "wavetables", which can be "everything" (usually single cycle waveforms of "anything that sounds good/modern/raw...". that's why you get "retrosounds" out of standard-oscillators and not that "modern massive sound" (which is all about it's wavetables and possibilities to modulate them and so on...).

 

Reaktor is more than Blocks.
Here an update 5.1 with animated (mod) pseudo Blocks based on LazyfiSh's h e i s h e r e

Thanks all. I downloaded and tried Richard Divines patched. I see he is using wavetables. So I guess he is making them using Prime and Core and not Blocks. I guess I have to dig into the manuals for Core and Prime.

 

… and learning by doing!
