I've decided to take the time and meticulously "convert" all missing 201 Super 8 R2 (VST) presets to its Reaktor counterpart... by recreating them from scratch 🥴 But instead of keeping them for myself, I want to share them here.

Wave 3 is now available and consists of the presets below. This final release marks the end of a monthslong process.

A big Thanks to @Jeremy_NI for asking around in the company (legal and stuff) and giving the green light!

New to this? Just take the "Complete" file and you're good to go!

Notes:

  • I can't 100% guarantee for no errors. While I've been super careful in replicating everything, I may still have missed a mod routing or two somewhere. The plan for now is to finish all presets first, followed by QA afterwards.
  • Feel free to share the link to this thread with others, but please do not re-upload the presets elsewhere.
  • Presets are provided "AS IS".
