Hi Peter,
Sent you a PM.

If you yelled and sprinkled a “fuck” in before some of your nouns you’d sound exactly like John Malkovich in that video.

Thanks for the kind words, ehdyn! If you don’t mind I’d like to quote your testimonial.

And thanks to everyone else who’s supporting further development by making a purchase. There’s more goodies in the pipeline.

Never bought any reaktor ensembles before, but this one’s exceptional.

Very simple and inspiring to use. Appreciate the fact that it’s being built up in a slow and considered fashion.
Find myself making alterations to it’s guts and then rippin it all back out cause it’s not adding anything to it.

Much obliged, Peter

dubqnp – the thing about Reaktor is, since the development is so rapid, I can afford to implement niche ideas like this, for a low price though admittedly a limited audience. A Reaktor ensemble will run on any platform where Reaktor does – Mac and Win in various plugin formats, and (unofficially) Linux.

Developers and companies that invest a lot of time and money into a C++ coded product generally want to do something with broader appeal.

I am looking around (lazily) for other rapid development platforms that will allow direct VSTi export – so far Synthmaker and Synthedit don’t have exactly what I need in terms of sampling and sequencing… if anyone can recommend something, I’m all ears.

Hey Loopy. :-)

As I plan on writing some of my own application notes on my new Noisepages blog soon, let me just say for now I am one very happy owner/user of Paradrum ;-)

A great implementation of a great idea.

Cool & cheap!
but can anyone recommend a VST that will do the same thing?
