2 What Is REAKTOR PRISM and REAKTOR PRISM FX?
REAKTOR PRISM is a powerful polyphonic synthesizer to be used with REAKTOR PLAYER
and REAKTOR 5.5. REAKTOR PRISM takes advantage of the potential of Modal synthesis,
a method typically used for physical modeling, and adds a special twist of its own with its
intuitive generation of complex sets of partials.
The modal sound engine is combined with dedicated voice processing, several powerful ef
fects, and unique feedback loops. Together these form a playable synthesizer capable of
generating a wide range of sounds, from acoustic and organic to synthetic and alien. RE
AKTOR PRISM delivers complex and innovative synthesis in a clean and easy-to-learn user
interface.
The instrument comes with more than 200 professionally designed presets. Its factory li
brary contains a large variety of plucked and percussive sounds as well as atmospheric
pads and soundscapes. Modifying these sounds will be an easy and intuitive way to create
your own signature sounds.
REAKTOR PRISM FX is a six-note polyphonic effect version of the powerful REAKTOR
PRISM synthesizer to be used with REAKTOR PLAYER and REAKTOR 5.5. REAKTOR
PRISM FX takes advantage of the Modal synthesis engine from REAKTOR PRISM to apply
complex sets of partials and overtones to incoming audio signals. REAKTOR
PRISM FX comes with 50 professionally designed presets that are best used on non-me
lodic sounds such as percussion and drum loops.
