Reaktor: Quick demo of “Xylo” sample instrument
August 16, 2011 · Posted in Uncategorized
Background information:
Quick demo of “Xylo” which is a sampler instrument I’ve built in Reaktor over the last two evenings. It was inspired by watching a video by Clark Nova (http://vimeo.com/3059674) and the bug in Kontakt that meant I couldn’t reproduce it.
Xylo has 8 voices where each voice plays a loop, back and forth, across a shared sample. Each loop starts at the same point but has a different length, playback speed, and granular settings.
It’s designed to have a very long release time so that the loops carry on playing and bouncing off each other in a (hopefully) satisfying way.
