Re: [microsound] any comments on reaktor?

[billy <glitchkitten@xxxxxxxxx>]

  hi.

i've been using reaktor as my main software since i really got into 
using my computer as my studio.  it served as a great way to learn 
about programming audio and dsp design, as well as giving me a number 
of very interesting and productive live performance environments.  I 
think reaktor  sounds really great and has been a real joy to use.

I also used reaktor as a way to begin to understand the more 
complicated workings of max/msp (which i have only been using seriously 
for about five months, but would be much less fluent without what I 
learned using reaktor).  reaktor's learning curve is not as steep and I 
feel you can get working (and usable) results rather smoothly.  the 
program is also very stable in osx.

i really want to emphasize that you can't really make a wrong choice 
with these programs.  there are all super rad.
