Re: Kantos 1 (Re: Reaktor 4 as gtr processor)



i use kantos a bit, mostly with my theremin, but it can
work with just about anything. it does interesting things
to polyphonic sources (it's designed to work with a mono
source) and will do pretty wild stuff with drum loops and
the like. one great feature is that it allows you to create
your own waveforms - samples essentially - and then
play them. it can be tricky to setup so that it triggers cleanly -
one of my big complaints about it - but then i am usually
feeding it theremin, which has a lot of dynamic range. i
wish it could track my volume changes more closely. other
than that i highly recommend it, the guys at antares are
pretty nice and responsive to technical problems.
cheers
