Guest Hanratty Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 dang, i was thinking of buying Reactor before the sale! But I bought Zebra instead (which I love) and i should probably learn that first. Also, I think I heard that reactor does not run well on macs and needs a very powerful computer, not sure if it's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing here although i got Alchemy instead of Zebra (during the camel audio group buy). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I think I heard that reactor does not run well on macs and needs a very powerful computer, not sure if it's true. good idea, zebra's semi-modular approach is easier to learn on than reaktor. that second part isn't true though, reaktor works great on a mac, and really the complexity of your patch determines how powerful of a computer you may need (ie. if you are building a subtractive synth, you'll have no problem, but if you are building a huge crazy generative machine you may start to max out your cpu). but honestly any recent mac will run reaktor perfectly fine.

awepittance Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 anybody here buy Reaktor 5 and can vouch personally that it's more stable than the cracked version? Reaktor 5.13 is ridiculously unstable on my Mac OSX snow leopard edit: on the mac thing, so far im noticing that the mac Reaktor 5 crashes about 4 x more often than the PC WinXp reaktor. but ive never used the legit version so not totally sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ryanmcallister Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 i've never crashed reaktor, ever. and i've used it heavily. sometimes it'll crash as a plugin in ableton, but i suspect that is more ableton's fault than reaktor's. i'd spring for the legit copy now if you are thinking about it. very stable. i'm using OSX leopard. i'm too scared to upgrade to snow leopard so soon.

awepittance Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 maybe the version of reaktor i have is incompatible with snow leopard. I didn't notice it being this buggy before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impakt Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 But why sould I pay 99€ when americans get to pay 99$? I would buy both r5 and massive for 99$ each, but change that to € and the price increases a lot.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awepittance Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 thats the same thing that happens to me right now (and going back to a previous version seems not to fix the problem), im assuming you installed the trial mode? are you on PC or mac modey, if so what OS/version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modey Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 i'm on a pc, running vista. fixed it though. i had to unplug my external soundcard, open reaktor, change audio device to asio4all (from the default, which i have never had any luck with), close reaktor, plug soundcard back in and then open again. phew! .. and no, i just outright bought it, pretty silly of me really but i assumed it'd just work right away (like all of my other audio software). luckily it was easily fixed!

modey Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 i found a rather realistic EMS synthi AKS emulator on that community. it's AWESOME. and i can vouch for its accuracy because i'm actually borrowing a real one from a friend at the moment.
