Hello!

I'm a total beginner and just installed Reaktor 6 in demo version. I have also installed some other extensions like "Blocks Base". I wanted to follow this tutorial: https://youtu.be/yl_VXrTET7k?t=110 but there is no "Block New.ens" on my Reaktor 6 :/ What do I have to install to have it? Has something changed in Reaktor 6 and it's gone? Are there more suitable tutorials for total beginners?

Another question: How to uninstall stuff from Native Access?


Thank you

    „Blocks New.ens“ is the same as „New.ens“

    It is a function in Reaktor. There is nothing to instal.

    The technical difference is only to „New Rack“

    Blocks are Instruments. And you can combine different instruments in one ensemble.

    for uninstall on MAC see:

    How to Uninstall Native Instruments Software from a Mac Computer – Native Instruments (native-instruments.com)

    As far as the template goes, it appears it is not included anymore. Not sure why, but that Tutorial is 7 years old and a lot can happen in 7 years (technologically speaking). you can go to File -> New, and then load those two components in and link the VCA to the output manually then save it as your own template and load it when needed. The components are "Bento VCA" found under the Blocks Base -> Bento Box folder and The "Note In" under the Blocks Base -> Utils folder.

    The answer seems ambiguous to me: creating New|Rack gives me the same thing as the missing New.ens did yesterday, but New|Ensemble does not.

    What I'm really bothered about is: yesterday it was there, today it is not, and I have spent an hour chasing around trying to find out why not, and whether I need to reinstall Reaktor.

    *edit: I have been unable to log in to Native Access this morning. There was maintenance happening earlier, but it should be done now.

    I re-opened the discussion and merged your comment here, for better reference. :-)

    Definitely, you do not have to re-install Reaktor.

    Perhaps you are using the Player (which is actually a demo) and not the Full version?

    Thanks. As I mentioned, the New.ens was where it was expected yesterday, and when I came back today it was gone. Since New Rack gives me the same thing, I'll just get on with it as it stands.

    Actually no, the New ensemble and New rack must be always present there.

    If you don't see them, then something is wrong.
