Native Instruments Reaktor Software Synthesizer

Reaktor is listed as one of the plugins used in the making of [Stepping To The Beat](https://splice.com/laidbackluke/stepping-to-the-beat/8A33DD40-B9C2-4F7D-92DF-BA634B3BDF12/dna)

"Native Instruments are pretty standard, and for good reason – Massive, Reaktor and FM8 are all amazing."

In this photo, Dirty South can be seen using Monark. Due to the surrounding interface, it can be assumed that Dirty South's Monark is running within Reaktor.

He says: "If I look for really unusual weird sounds I go for NI Reaktor."

Rob Swire spotted using Reaktor Swire "Lead sounds generally comes from Reaktor, Massive, Sylenth1"

in this instagram's video, you can see the item around 11", he's clearly open it.

"This a fully modular synthesis studio within which one can create an endless amount of their own programmable synthesizers. I use it because you can get very creative crafting new sounds and its very user friendly."

At 17:21, Martijn of Noisia states that the bass sound was made in Razor. Because Razor runs in Reaktor, it follows suit that Noisia has Reaktor

Owl City's studio, Sky Harbor Studios, uses many Native Instruments virtual instruments. The third of these is Reaktor.

In this YouTube video, Kill Paris gives a tutorial on making a dubstep bass in Razor. Razor requires Reaktor to run, so by necessity Kill Paris uses Reaktor in order to use Razor.

In this Instagram photo we can see Reaktor 5 tracks in a step sequencer, likely FL Studio, as shown in [this Native Instruments help page](http://www.native-instruments.com/en/support/knowledge-base/show/962/how-can-i-insert-native-instruments-plug-ins-in-fl-studio/).

In response to a tweet asking "What's one of your favorite/go to plugins for your sounds? Any type?@wymanofficial @DimitriVangelis", Dimitri responds with "Omnisphere, Kontakt and Reaktor!"

Jenkinson likes the challenge of coaxing unfound sounds from gear, even as he recognizes the shortcomings of something like the QY700’s timing in comparison to a digital sequencer. He doesn’t crave perfection, which he considers an old-school approach. Exact timing would only retain its meticulous nature for so long once the outboard units are coupled with the self-taught programmer’s “hacks,” which he cobbles together in SuperCollider, Pure Data, and Reaktor.

This is one of his synthesizers he uses for his productions

In this video by Native Instruments, 12th Planet talks about what he likes about Native Instruments Razor. Because Razor runs in Reaktor, it follows suit that 12th Planet uses Reaktor as well.

In [this interview](http://web.archive.org/web/20120204001428/http://www.native-instruments.com/community/tech-talk/trent-reznor), Reznor talks about his use of Native Instruments Reaktor. He says, "In the studio we had two Apple G5's, one running Pro Tools hosting Guitar Rig, and the other one with Logic hosting Reaktor, so we could suck as much horse power as we needed and then just digitally transfer it to the computer with the main Pro Tools system," and "For a large portion of what we did, we treated Reaktor like a guitar pedal, like the ultimate distortion box. Instead of having an array of pedals on the floor, a lot of the pedals became virtual in Reaktor."

Moulder runs ProTools, Logic, Reason and Reaktor on a Power Mac in the studio, and on a PowerBook for remote editing.

How did you come across Native Instruments? That was by recommendation from Martin Ware of Heaven 17. We worked together and he recommended Absynth and FM7 to me. I loved Absynth right away because it was so different from anything else. Then I got into Reaktor through Gareth Jones, who was another producer I worked with. He explained to me how it worked. At first I was a bit put off by the idea of creating your own synthesizers. Initially, I couldn't be bothered to do that because it sounded like a lot of hard work. But I soon found out that it was also a lot of fun!"

At 11:30 in this video, Sigma can be seen running Native Instruments Razor within Cubase. Due to this, it can be confirmed that Sigma use Native Instruments Reaktor, because it is required to run Razor.

At 25:50 in this video from Future Music Magazine, Andrew Taggart of The Chainsmokers talks about using Reaktor for creating a bass sound for their track "Roses".

Synthesizer used in the studio for the recording of his solo album Fuerza Natural (2009).

Matt Lange can be seen using Reaktor in this Instagram post.

"Live jamming sleaze house with Reaktor 6 and the modular..."

Reaktor is a versatile software synth and programming environment.

"We've got a virtual modular system in Reaktor on the Mac, and we've got a System 100, and we're cross-patching them. That, to me, is perfect, because you're getting the best of both worlds."

in this video, on Eekkoo's Facebook, one can see Eekkoo using Reaktor by Native Instruments.

Jody says, "I’m still loving Reaktor big-time - it sneaks into most of my tracks. I love downloading stuff from the User Library - it fascinates me. I haven’t really gone into the geek territory of programming patches from scratch, though," in [this article](http://www.musicradar.com/news/tech/jody-wisternoffs-favourite-music-software-554186/3).

Reaktor was used on the album* Light + Shade*, according to the liner notes.

"...I also use Metaphysical Function from the Reaktor User Library as a standalone thing. That’s not new at all but still sounds better than a lot of gear today."

Also,There is Reaktor

(Q) You have been using REAKTOR in your live shows quite a lot, does this still play a part in the live setup? (A) Yes, we are still using Reaktor for live and in the studio.

Yes, we are still using Reaktor for live and in the studio.

"Reaktor and the Virus Pro Tools plug-in are my main synths, and particularly Reaktor 3 is my synth of choice. It's grittier than Reaktor 4. The washy sound you hear on 'Shadow Journal' is the shredded viola loop I spoke about. It's a viola player playing the chord sequence in arpeggios, and I've treated it, cutting off the low end below 400Hz and the top end above 1500Hz, using a GRM band-pass filter plug-in that's very dirty and very brutal. This left only the inner harmonics of the viola part, so it gets this nice whooshy, rather mysterious analogue feel."

"We use Reaktor live and in the studio, for voice processing and effects, as a sequencer and sampler, and for all kinds of experimental stuff. Reaktor is the most versatile software instrument there is."

You work in Pro Tools? I do, but my producer, Ade Fenton, works in Logic. We used Native Instruments Massive, Reactor, but I struggled with that. We also use Omnisphere. The danger with that software is, it’s very popular and then you get sucked into using things everybody knows. It’s difficult not to do, but it’s fantastic software. So many things really work straight out of the box, you have to be careful of that. But as a rule we work hard to make sure we are creating new sounds.

"Reaktor isn't that hard to work with, really. For the thing I'm building, I'm purposely not working with macros so it's really my own thing when it's done." - [Icicle](http://www.musicradar.com/news/tech/icicle-talks-dnb-production-the-universe-and-everything-618402).

At the comment according to his picture at Instagram, he wrote: "svenwittekindHello dear Night... Let's get lost in #techno #beats #lfo #modular #reaktor #blocks #maschine #svenwittekind #studio"

In [this interview](http://blog.liveschool.net/mr-bill-qa/), Mr. Bill says that he uses Native Instruments Reaktor Software Synthesizer.

Below picture 7/8 he mentions that he use Reaktor from Native Instruments.

The community is amazing, you can get many plugins for free and really well made sounding gear

Reaktor 5 can be seen open inside of Ableton Live in this video at 1:04

In this video, Dave reviews Reaktor 5.5.

"Programing randomness plate movement sound differentiation of pitch, volume and layer with Twisted Tools s-layer in FL Studio" To clarify, S-LAYER is a sample layering sound creation tool for Reaktor 5.

"On one of the disks (Deaf Composition) I operated two Reaktor patches, random without monitoring"

"I don't really use many plug-ins apart from a few go-to's like Michael Norris' SoundMagic Spectral plugins and Native Instruments Reaktor + Massive. For the most part I've found that the built-in Ableton plugins are sufficient."

At 58:57, Daniel demonstrates Native Instruments Monark, which is a Reaktor instrument.

Lifelike talks to FM magazine about making his track ‘so electric’ pickup issue 251 for full length video

(italian web magazine interview)

"i really want a 6pole butterworth filter for reaktor...oh look i can just go on wikipedia and just get the coefficients from there and make it in core."

In this Reddit AMA, Tim mentions he uses Max/MSP and Reaktor.

"PD: Have you tried Kore, from Native Instruments? F: No, but that sounds interesting to me. I use Reaktor a lot in studio. I use a lot of Native Instruments software, but not for live playing."

Since January, however, AIR have been working on new songs, and Nicolas has discovered NI's Reaktor. As Jean?Benoît Dunckel says, "If we build a new studio per album, our records had better sell!"

"The key is resampling. It's all about resampling. I'll start off, maybe in [NI] Reaktor or Massive or the MS10, and then I'll sample it. Then I'll record it into Renoise. Then I'll resample it again from within Renoise to add more effects to it. I love that old sampler thing that when you pitch up, the modulations will get faster as well."

From Andrew's blog post outlining his plug in staples and soft synths. "And Reaktor is perhaps a cheat of an answer, because it encompasses so many cool synths and effects that have been built for it. Some of the official NI ones are fantastic: Razor, Monark, The Finger. But the user library is amazing as well - you can get thousands of homemade plug-ins for free."

He's using reaktor in this picture.

As you can see in the photo, HOME is using the Reaktor plugin in Ableton Live 9.

Tim Exile's setup consists of 2 BCR2000s, a BCF2000, a Keystation, an MPD16, and Reaktor.

WE SEE THE REAKTOR HERE

> En complément d’Ableton, j’utilise beaucoup de plug-ins comme ceux de chez Soundtoys qui ont des effets super intéressants. Il y a aussi l'Omnisphere, un synthé fantastique, peut-être l'un de mes plugs préférés. Puis évidement **Reaktor de Native Instruments** (ainsi tous les instruments et effets qui vont avec), les possibilités sont tellement nombreuses, j’adore me perdre dans la recherche et la création de sons originaux avec.

"I bought along my Supernova and my Nord Micro Modular as well as Reaktor and AbSynth, Arboretum’s Hyper Engine, Logic Audio, Pluggo and Sound Diver. In addition, I brought the Doepfer MAQ16/3 sequencer and the Doepfer Regelwerk Fader Box; also my Genelec 1029As, to which we soon added the 1091 sub."
