REAKTOR MUSIC SOFTWARE

ItвЂ™s a bit like a software equivalent вЂ“ fully maxed out вЂ“ of grooveboxes from Elektron and the like. Once you look at it that way, itвЂ™s way easier to understand.

Sensor is an audio-to-gate converter with peak detector.

Intake is an audio input router and looper.

Skate MIDI transposer and automation recorder.

4 effects: resonate/shift, micro delay/freeze, reverb, and a radio and tape machine emulator.

Tuning modules: scales, modes, chords, and other ways of setting truning and microtuning based on different pitch references.

Shock virtual analog drum synth (a mix of stuff forming 12 separate modules).

(And yes, to anyone still wowed by machine learning and AI вЂ“ this sort of conventional simple rules-based structures still tend to produce the best results, without any of that complex training.)Д«ut if you do delve deeper, there is an insane amount of stuff crammed into the package. You can certainly just set it to spin out some endless musical materials for you, unsupervised вЂ“ in case you desire some software that plays for you at the end of a long day. You need Reaktor to run COLLIDZВ°, but wow are the two a special combo вЂ“ a chance to make music without ever touching a linear timeline or conventional DAW UI. (Okay, one of these days IвЂ™ll do an all things Kai Krause and Eric Wenger retrospective вЂ“ youвЂ™ve got my word.) This will make sense to I think about 4% of the readership, but вЂ“ itвЂ™s also the nearest to KaiвЂ™s Power Tools for music as I think IвЂ™ve seen. Meet COLLIDZВ° by Blinksonic, aka Sylvain Stoppani. But if other tools get you stuck in presets, this world-builder for Reaktor makes each preset and parameter a gateway to something creative and unexpected.

ItвЂ™s packed with synth engines and effects.
