Update in the WET outputs of the FX - STUTTER block. They now only give signal out when the stutter is active.

Sorry that they bother you. They are indeed pointless as I did not spend attention to the Instrument browser thumbnails. The knobs, buttons, in and out ports of each block carry a tooltip with a description of their function though.

What's the deal with the thumbnails of these in the Instrument Browser? They are all generic (and pretty pointless)

Another minor issue found in AMP - ADSR. This block wasn't velocity sensitive while it should be. Solved in the upload before this post.

Catman Dude brought to my attention that there is a bug in the SEQ - PQ block. The bug is discussed in the Reaktor user forum under the following thread: https://www.native-instruments.com/forum/threads/problems-bug-in-digilog-pitch-quant-block.338795/ The solution provided by Catman Dude has been implemented in the SEQ - PQ block and is available in the new upload that I have posted before this message.

I found a minor issue in LFO TK - XY OUT. The controls for X and Y were swapped. This is resolved in the new upload that I have posted before this message.

Not only are all blocks updated to front panel patching / rack- ready, the inner workings have been optimized for the new format and CPU consumption reduction has been applied where possible. Block builders are more than welcome to use macros from the KNBSTRB8 blocks for their own creations.

Awesome stuff, great to see your work updated for front panel patching. Your tempo synced delays and lfos inspired me to start creating my own blocks a while back.

Hi Niels, I'm thinking about putting together a free 'Community Pack' of blocks for Reaktor 6.3 Patch & Play, would you be interested in adding some of your blocks to the pack? See this thread here: https://www.native-instruments.com/forum/threads/patch-play-community.364769/

Philippe, The 1.65 update contains OSC - PLS SAW DUO with additional direct outs. This enables to use the oscillator as published in update 1.5 as well as using it as it was in update 1.4. The Sync function remains to the master oscillator (Osc 1.). This is the difference with the version published in update 1.4. The 1.4 update PLS SAW DUO contained 2 oscillators instead of 3.

Dear all, Thank you for your responses and input on this post. With the 1.5 release this download contains 75 blocks that give enough flexibility to experiment with the basic functions available within modular synthesis. Going forward, I would like to give attention to more experimental blocks (both audio and sequencing) and adding more FX blocks to the collection.

Seing your update, funny that I also made the FINE A/B mods, but forgot it in some folder .... with also a more readable SEQ-PQ notes. Too many good things.

Philippe, Many thanks for the deep research. Both VCA's are updated in the 1.2 update with the shorter shadows that do not overlap.

Hi Niels, great again ! Concerning the Int/Exp buttons click problems we talk about in your Patches page, it seems to be the Mod A/B Shadow height which is too big. Set it height to 75 (against 88) and it seems to be OK for me now.

This collection and other User Blocks in the Reaktor User Library are .ism files that only work on the full version of Reaktor 6. Reaktor player only works with .ens files.

Niels Speijer

Janusz, Indeed the download is not installed via the Native Instruments portal. The download is a zipped file of the Blocks, sorted in directory's. Installation is done as follows: 1. Find the directory where the other Reaktor Blocks are installed on your computer. 2. Unzip the downloaded ZIP file to that directory. 3. Next time you start using Reaktor Blocks, the KNBSTRB8 folder should be along with the folders of the blocks you got with Reaktor.
