6/13/2023 0 Comments Razor reaktor![]() It only takes in MIDI and can only be used as an instrument. The other version, the VST version, simply does not have audio inputs. And switching that option back and forth and clearing the cache and re-scanning is a pain, as it takes Reaper several full minutes to scan my plugin folder, as it contains many plugins.Īnd strangely, considering what you say about a VSTi being an instrument and not an effect, between the two options that are available when the "deprecated" box is unchecked, the only one that can actually be used to process audio or be used as an effect is the VSTi version. Why is the FX version that I want not available when the "deprecated" box in preferences is unchecked? I can access it if I check that box, but having that box checked causes me issues with other plugins. And it will take in up to 16 channels of audio input. And it will process both properly and not pass the unwanted dry signal. It will take in both MIDI signals and audio. That second option is the one that works as expected for use as an effect. These are the options that are then available: The VSTi version with the dry signal problem and only 2 input channels no longer appears. If, however, I check that box in preferences that says it is deprecated, a different version of Reaktor becomes available when I am adding a plugin. ![]() Also this version only takes two channels of input audio. However, it also passes the dry signal and this is not wanted and cannot be turned off. ![]() The version listed (again, with "deprecated" option unchecked) as "VSTi: Reaktor 6 (Native Instruments GmbH) (2->16ch)" DOES take both MIDI and audio input and will process that audio. It will take MIDI information in, but not audio, such as from my microphone input. The regular version, what Reaper lists (when the "deprecated" option is unchecked in preferences) as "VST: Reaktor 6 (Native Instruments GmbH) (16ch)" will not process incoming audio. If I use those categories or folders as you describe, my same problem still exists. In the window that appears when I add a plugin, I always have "all plugins" highlighted and just type in "reakt" or something like that at the bottom, where it says "filter" to get the plugin I want. You seem to be referring to the categories that show up in the "add FX" window, not folders on my hard drive, correct? What is in those categories doesn't matter here. Unfortunately, what you describe doesn't address the issue I am having. Opaque, thanks for the reply and attempt to help! I would rather not have to change that setting every time I want to load Reaktor FX and then have to clear the cache and rescan, as I have so many instruments that it takes a while.Īny ideas why Reaktor FX doesn't show up when that box is unchecked? Are my only options to check it or to use the "2->16ch" VSTi version with the messy workaround? I prefer not to have the box checked for “Do not scan VST names/types (deprecated)”, as issues have arisen for me with other VSTs when that is checked. In my VST folder, I only have two files for Reaktor, the regular, non-FX version and the FX version: This is how it should function.Īlso, there are differences in the routing options for "VST: Reaktor FX" as opposed to "VSTi: Reaktor 6 (Native Instruments GmbH) (2->16ch)". If, on the other hand, I use the true Reaktor FX version, when doing as above with a vocoder effect, the dry signal is not passed. I found a workaround using a special routing setup in Reaper that is a little messy that I can explain if needed. I don't see any setting in Reaktor to avoid this. If, for example, I bring in audio from a microphone to use the vocoder effects in Razor, Reaktor produces the vocoder output but also passes the unmodified dry signal. That version exhibits some strange behavior. One might be tempted to think that the "2->16ch" part in the first two is just another way of naming Reaktor 6 FX. If I check the box for “Do not scan VST names/types (deprecated)”, I see these instead: VSTi: Reaktor 6 (Native Instruments GmbH) (2->16ch) VST: Reaktor 6 (Native Instruments GmbH) (16ch) Instead, these are the available options: If I leave it unchecked, Reaktor 6 FX does not show up when I try to add it to a track. ![]() In the section of preferences for VST plugins, there is the checkbox that says “Do not scan VST names/types (deprecated)”.
