Make it like a 6U 84hp skiff. 5 modules on top, 5 on the bottom

Yes all with CV jacks capable of receiving/sending CV to hardware. This actually would be better than what I was thinking. I was thinking something along the lines of a module that would fit in a euro case, similar to the new Roland effects where you could load Blocks via a USB. I like your idea much better. :D

Hmmmm I believe so but now that you mention it I don't know....I'll check as soon as I'm home

Modulating fine tune would be the same as modulating the overall Pitch / Freq with a lot of attenuation, which you can do. :)

Some taking on larger projects, but also an effort to try and knock down some utility modules such as wavefolders and wave multipliers, A-D envelopes, etc. Just an idea.
user loadable wavetable oscillator on par with Serum's quality

Pulse Divider / Boolean Logic output to Drum Sampler and/or USG
There's a solid Wavetable oscillator up on the User Library already, but it doesn't have loadable waveforms. Still, it's an awesome tool that's already in most of my ensembles.

The built-in Block Library includes a Clock Divider. It's pretty simplistic though.

Boolean Logic should be very easy to implement. There are pre-made Core Macros for every logic type.

Just a heads up...I believe the current Komplete upgrade will only get you Reaktor 5. Might wanna look into it before you pull the trigger on it.

If you take into account that all six divisions can be fully modulated in does not seem so simplistic any more.. Feedback! :)

Plus it has up and down counting modes, and can either output signals with a 50% duty cycle for all divisions or use the input gate length.

This actually sounds amazing lol.

The wavetable Oscillator sounds great IMO. There's also a morph knob I'm looking forward to trying out...I'm hoping it'll morph CV signals not just audio.

Does anyone have a Microsoft Surface and is running this? Is it any good? I'm a total Apple guy and haven't touched a PC in 7-8 years, but I'd be tempted back to the dark side just to see if this is in any way useable with a multi touchscreen.

Reportedly, Reaktor 6 doesn't yet support multitouch.

Here's a video of Reaktor's user created uWave Oscillator Block verses Braids. I sequence 2 notes to Braids and 3 notes to uWave. The output of Braids is patched into Reaktor and is controlled by an amp in Reaktor. I did this mainly to see if Reaktor would be on par with output level of hardware as well as timbre. In my opinion Reaktor every bit as good as hardware,....in my opinion they blend together very well in this patch. There are some added drums and occasional chords just for flavor.

Same. Maybe it's the video compression but the inverter in particular looks kinda lo-res.
