I gave up on the Reaktor manual. Just couldn't wrap my head around anything but the very basics of building synths. ADSR sells a Reaktor synth building video course which is reportedly very good so I might try that.


I liked this one... Might not be deep enough for some though..

Yeah I watched the Groove3 course - it's very good at explaining the basics of loading synths, setting preferences, working with snapshots and hooking synths up to effects etc. But it only touches on the surface of building synths. I really wish they'd do an advanced course as well.

My thoughts exactly.  I wanted the Groove 3 Reaktor course to be so much more than what it was.  Now, maybe that would take 20 hours to cover all the deep stuff, so I can see how Groove 3 might not believe there's much of a return on investment.  On the other hand, after two years (and a third coming up) of the 99 buck all access pass, I've watched pretty much everything I was interested in (and the Kontakt 4 course twice), Next Nov., I'll probably be finding it hard to justify the what-has-become-annual Nov. all access renewal.

There is a kontakt 5 appendix installment now on Groove 3 but I'm afraid it's the worst tutorial by miles (unlike the Kontakt 4 course which is probably the best and works fine with version 5).

..He's selling (I'm buying) his old version 9, not 10. Though I guess I could use it to instantly upgrade to 10....



Interesting. Does that mean that once you've used 9 to upgrade to 10, you can sell your 9, and that person can upgrade to 10, and then...

No you can not sell your old one.  everything is tied to your NI account.  You would have to sell them all in series. 
 
example you have K9 you buy K10 upgrade from K9 they are tied together.  if you bought a new K10U full product you could then sell K9 and K10 upgrade together as a package license.

That of course makes perfect sense. I assumed Karyn was only kidding and I was just fueling the fire...

I just got the Komplete 10 update for Komplete 9. I was in a quandary as to whether or not I should remove K9 before installing the update, I didn't have enough space left on my SSD for both libraries. I also noticed that they changed out their piano collection, I had the Berlin Concert Grand in a couple projects. I ended up removing everything in K9 but the pianos. Hopefully when it's done installing they'll still show up in the instrument list.

I'm also hoping for a BF deal on Komplete. Let's keep our fingers crossed! :)
