Reaktor: A Long Term Relationship

I reference Reaktor a whole bunch on my channel, so I figured with it being 50% off ($99.99 USD) until November 30th, I would do a general overview of what it's capable of and how I've used it over the years.

This covers the basics of blocks and core mode.

Man, watched this start to end and then bought Reaktor. It's like with working out. Best day to start with it would've been 17 years ago, but second best day is today.

The blast from the past: 4:12 got released on Our Simulacra album as "Clockfox"
Who could've known?

i am eternally grateful to reaktor. it has enabled me to understand so many things that would have otherwise not been accessible because of my attention span. I mean, a fourier transform is a fairly complex equation on paper, but when an algorithm is something that you can open up and say 'oh! that's whats going on', well, it doesn't get much knowable than that

i'd say two years of going hard has seen the depth and scope of my understanding raise exponentially

I think packages like this are what make synthesis and music truly special. Basically limitless, from what I can understand.

that last acid track was really really hard, also amazing video tysm

[jrileyhill]

I bought REAKTOR.... I think during this sale. I used a bunch of instruments over the last couple year, so many unique sounds have made their way into my productions.
Recently had time to start learning how to build my own synths, and also the new update with "racks" came out recently....
So awesome, it's truly a gift that keeps on giving.

[Unifono]

"the only thing restricting you from doing that is time". So true.
Really enjoying your channel. Blocks are great

[nakanda]

I am a reaktor addicted guy. Nowadays I intend to get another (really powerful) computer because of blocks, and I gave up about the physical modular stuff. The audio quality is just gorgeous!

[ChrisWoodBandit]

whoa I didn't know that THAT was what reaktor was! To be honest I used to work on a farm and I hated it and those names are too close to Tractor. But I'll tell you what got me, in your video wwhen you showed what it could do around 4 minutes in there was a Synthi looking thing in the upper middle and in the next patch a rene looking thing in the bottom middle, and it looked like 8 times more fun than the software modular synths i have been messing with (cherry audio, the one in Arturia's big package). I'm going to get this and thank you for making this video.

[blinkybill]

Watching your vids from Nairobi, and I enjoy them!

[pcread]

It's like Synthesizer Lego. You can make almost anything.

[Byronic]

Lol bruh I love you're the first musician I ever heard say in a video you understand why people pirate and have done it before. It's such a taboo subject and all these channels act like they never did it when they got into music or everybody has all this money to spend especially on a hobby as most people pirating are only into production and music as a hobby not a profession.

[AykutKlc]

scrabble is super deep. sounds beautiful.

[onpatrolforthejuice]

Im so glad you started this channel. Your music is like the music I grew up with =)

[P.Gillett]

nice work there man! your 20 years of reaktor has paid off . :)

[squackles]

Awesome! Been wanting to get Reaktor ever since your video about additive synthesis, but was waiting for a sale(which I didn't think would come). Wouldn't have heard about it if it wasn't for you, so thanks!
Would love to see more videos on generative music, either in Reaktor Blocks or on Eurorack.

[iowamusicarchive]

I usually watch all your content from my phone and almost never want to log in so I can't like and subscribe or comment. Funny thought about good generative content and how to get effective feedback from a fanbase.

[junaidf]

Some of those generative tracks at the start are actually really good. You should make full tracks out of those.

[robertsyrett]

Ok, I broke down and bought reaktor. Hopefully I enjoy it as much as I have Audulus. I'm looking forward to checking out the user library and maybe making some contributions.

I want clock 🦊 and 🌈. Are these shared? Wow they all sound amazing. Please say they are shared?
