That's right NI Reaktor's stepbrother Sync Modular is now free. I've overlooked the news, it became free quite a time ago, but never the less I support that kind of steps. I remember I asked NI to make Reaktor 2.3 free ages ago. Now it feels like they should make free Reaktor 5

I just did something I should do at least 3 years ago. I created my synthesis Youtube channel. Anyway, the QM synthesis idea was developed ages before this blog even, And before we have Quantum Radio 2 and probablly some more bonuses there is first video for this blog. During creating it I've solved quite a lot of technical problems of video recording, editing, recompressing, sound and multiple video sync. And now there is midi controller in picture, it's Korg's Nanokontrol. So, it's quite good beginning!

Now, enjoy new video! HD/Fullscreen mode is recommended!

A couple of rocking music software pieces just became freeware. Buzz inspired multi-platform modular tracker and Image to Sound FFT synthesizer. Both from the same developer.

SunVox is a small, fast and powerful music sequencer with modular synthesizers. It is a tool for those people who want to compose music anywhere. SunVox available for desktop PC (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X), pocket computers (Windows Mobile, PalmOS, iPhone) and netbooks.

VirtualANS (ANS – the abbreviation for "Alexandr Nicolaevitch Skryabin", the great Russian composer) is the software analogue of the first Russian synthesizer in which the unique optical method of synthesis, developed by a scientist E. Mursin in the years 1937-1957, is used.

VirtualANS is a tool for creating unique fantastic sounds. You can convert JPG-images to the sound and and vice versa. There are different tools for visual transformations, three methods of synthesis during convertation (FFT and ADDITIVE) and possibility generate multichannel sounds (mono, stereo, 6 channels).

Plus there is a multi-plutform game and some additional interesting stuff on the site!

And the coolest thing about that we’ve got a couple of new plugs and one of them is absolutely rocks:

ReaJS

• Realtime user-editable effect processor
• 64-bit internal audio processing, MIDI support, full PDC support, multichannel I/O support, graphics display support.
• Hundreds of included effects, including: delays, compressors, limiters, convolution, distortion, spectral noise editors, analyzers, loop samplers, creative effects.
• Create new effects from scratch, or modify existing effects to meet your needs
• JS editor and debugger included, opens automatically when you edit a plug-in

It’s worth a look because the stuff is free at the moment!

Hey!

AudioTag.info – Online music recognition project. The database isn’t the biggest one yet, but the whole conception is great. The internet and sample libraries are full of empty-tag material, and tools like that gives a good perspective to get the thruth back.

Paul’s Extreme Sound Stretch - Quite simple and free way to create great textrures from samples and music. Just take your favourite tune full of fat sounds and slow down it up to millions (!) times. Gives some really awesome results in seconds!

Hi. Taking my blog and ideas out of the conservation. I remeber I was never happy with the default Reaktor’s skin for the controlls, and there was no choice except doing my own one. Now there are tons of packs. Some time ago I found SUK’s blog, and then I thought – I’m gonna back to Reaktor. Just a fresh feeling I was need. See you soon.
