Native Instruments Reaktor 5 is out, and it’s amazing. The biggest leap is “Reaktor Core Technology,” which allows users to freely design their own filters, oscillators, shapers, delays, EQ’s, and completely new types of modules, greatly extending REAKTOR 5’s sonic potential. If you’re not a “from the ground-up” sort of synth-tweaker, then the huge new library of instruments, synths, grooveboxes, sequencers, and effects will have you making a creative noise in no time – especially since Reaktor 5 features a new, more friendly user interface design. Registered owners of Reaktor version 3 or 4 can upgrade through Sweetwater for a very sweet price.
