This is what Reaktor’s blurb has to say about it: On the other hand, its not like I need MORE VI's.SpaceDrone is a self-playing ensemble, creating sounds ranging from lush, ethereal ambient soundscapes, not dissimilar to the weird and wonderful noises captured by NASA of other planets and moons, cold industrial tones, insect-like chattering and sounds that wouldn’t be out of place in a Andrei Tarkovsky film. But, there are many others, such as Output Sounds, that will work in Kontakt player.
NEWSCOOL REAKTOR FULL
Yeah, I know that some VI's are full Kontakt only, such as all the 8dio libraries. I have seen that there are a number of free VI's out there for Reaktor, as well as Kontakt player. I was using the word "host" very loosely. There's also a user community that puts up free ensembles for Reaktor that's hosted by NI. You can even build your own stuff if you have the temerity to do so.ĭo pay attention though to third party libraries/sounds for Kontakt as some require the full Kontakt and won't work with the free Kontakt. I have the full Reaktor and have opened some things and it's amazing what's going on behind the front panel gui. You can't edit the internals of something like Newscool in Reaktor Player which is the freebie but you can in the full Reaktor. Think of it as building a synthesizer out of individual capacitors, resistors and ic's. It really gets down to what I would call the molecular level. It's a plugin in which instruments and effects are built using it's internal building blocks. Technically speaking Reaktor is not a host. I like the ones from Output Sounds, especially Exhale, which seems to have some rather unique patches based on vocals. There does seem to be quite a few VI's for both Reaktor and Kontakt out there, though. Not sure how much I'll want to get into all that! The most complicated seems to be Newscool, which employs some kind of secret algorithm to create rhythms and sequences. Now that I get the basic layout it'll be easier figuring out what all the various VI's do and how they work. However, some of the VI's are certainly nice with some great sounding patches. A rather complicated set-up, if you ask me. Apparently some of the VI's that came with the Komplete Start package are hosted in Reaktor, but not in Kontakt. Its not the most intuitive of plugins, that's for sure! What I didn't realize is that Reaktor is another host program, with a lot more to it. Well, I think I finally was able to figure most of it out as far as what goes where.
NEWSCOOL REAKTOR MANUAL
But none of them seemed to address any of these issues, and the manual doesn't seem to offer much help either.Ĭlearly I've missed some things, but I don't know where. I read all the start up info on the NI website for the Komplete Kontrol, as well as several other videos on YouTube, as well as the Kontakt Free Explained on Groove 3. So, if there's any kind soul here that is familiar with all this NI stuff and can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. Again, I can't see any way to tell Free to load them up. I had assumed that they would all load into Kontakt Free. When I load up Kontakt Free 6 on a PT Instrument track, I only have some of the instruments available, and not all of the ones that came with Komplete Kontrol. However, it appears that Komplete Kontrol is not multi-timbral.
NEWSCOOL REAKTOR PRO
The second question is that when I host in Pro Tools, I have all the instruments available that come with Komplete Kontrol. I don't need or want it to scan everything, just what I want it use.
Which leads to question #1: Is there a way to tell Komplete Kontrol to only scan certain things? If so, I can't find it anywhere in the program and there's no option on boot up to limit it either. When you open it in standalone mode, it scans absolutely everything.all my VSTs, including my older 32bit ones, which I scarcely even use any more. So, I got it all installed and then followed the instructions for using Komplete Kontrol. I've had Kontakt Free for some time, but hardly ever used it.
NEWSCOOL REAKTOR DOWNLOAD
Yesterday I decided to take advantage of the free download offered by NI for their Komplete Start package which includes things like Komplete Kontrol, Kontakt free 6, and several instruments, loops, samples, etc.
