As the next generation of the legendary modular synthesis studio, the new Reaktor version adds powerful modal and additive synthesis, a revised user interface, the unique Lazerbass synthesizer and many enhancements for both instrument builders and musicians.
Komplete 7 also integrates a wealth of instruments and effects based on Kontakt, Kore, Reaktor and Guitar Rig. Products added to the bundle include the acclaimed Abbey Road 60s Drums vintage drum library, the radical performance effect The Finger by Tim Exile, the sampled electric bass Scarbee MM-Bass and all four electric pianos from the Scarbee Vintage Keys, the cinematic Acoustic Refractions instrument and the distinctive Reaktor Spark synthesizer.
Komplete 7 also incorporates five completely new products: The powerful studio reverb Reflektor with its advanced zero-latency convolution engine; the highly expressive Reaktor Prism modal synthesizer; the performance effects suite Traktor 12 derived from Native Instruments' leading DJ software; the new
Vintage Organs instrument; and the new Rammfire amp emulation.
