Is it still possible to download and install Reaktor 5?

killmaster · March 30

I'm asking for a friend who purchased Reaktor 5 and wants to re-install it but can't find a way to download and install it any more. Is it still available? I see it doesn't show up in Native Access.

Thanks for any tips,

Greg

(Greg) killmaster is on Mac.

On my Win 10 Pro R5 runs quite well.

Greg, here you can switch (+) your OS and NI shows you what is possible to install.

So, if your OS is higher than 10.14 R5 is impossible to install on your machine.

It should be possible to download and install Reaktor 5.

Friend has to allow NA2 to show legacy SW. It may be set in NA2 settings. Or he may try NA1. (Service Center does not work anymore).

Another aspect may be that NA2 and NA shows only plugins that may be installed on given OS. So, if friend uses OS version that is not compatible with Reaktor 5, plugin most probably will not show up.

If this is the case, one might try to install it anyway. Not sure, if it would work on Mac, but on Win I have been able to install plugins that were not aimed for my Win version and did not show in NA. If that is the case, I may describe how one may try to do it.

Updates to Reaktor 5 may be also downloaded here. One has to be signed into NI account. I am not sure if Update may be used if no version of Reaktor 5 is installed. Maybe yes, maybe not...
