Using Lurker

Hell-o,
I am a newbie to Reaktor. I have had Session for about 6 months and I just upgraded to 5. I like to use the Reaktor effects with my bass in ableton live 4.1.2. I saw the effect Lurker and tried to run my bass thru it (I wanted to get an NIN molten detuned industrial sound) but I had no such luck.

Does anyone know how I can properly set this ensemble up to use the way I want to? Moreover does anyone have any suggestions on how I can go about creating an ensemble that would work as a sound destruction unit? Thanks.

cheers,
JackB

 

Make sure you have your external gain turned up (the knob on Lurker's panel labeled EXT) and the internal sample player's gain turned down (INT)...

Thanks but it still doesn't work. I see the audio in meter go back and forth but the audio out does not show up. I had a similar problem with the vocoder. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
JackB

 

just for your information, theres a small tutorial on using Lurker and a few other ensembles from R5 in the new Computer Music mag

 

i feel that it was written by rachmiel.

Is there a reason why lurkers sequencers don't move now? I'm sure they worked ok before. I haven't used it in a while, just trying now, it works as a delay/filter etc , but there's just no movement and hence no modulation from the sequencers. Got both a sample and an external input (heishere06) going, and trying to mix them together in interesting ways.....
Is it an update bug?




oops....no reason for this to be in the Creators section, I just did a search for a Lurker thread, sorry 'bout that.

 

the sequencers are moving for me, i am just using the ensemble version.

Oh yes, that works here too. It seems to be the instrument version that has no movement. Do you think it's a midi issue?

 

there is a snap instrument in the ensemble version. it needs to be included as it has the SongPos module.

if i were you, i would import your other instrument into the ensemble structure.
