Flintpope has released BRUTE, a new synth for NI's REAKTOR. A ssokesperson had this to say...
Reaktorblocks is fun, but I thought it was time for me to go further and create an instrument in Reaktor's Primary (fancy-pants geek thing) as it lends itself to greater flexibility in sound and look; let me introduce BRUTE for REAKTOR 6
This simple polyphonic subtractive synth gives you a set of punchy drums, some powerful basses and a range of interesting sounds for top-lines. I didn't preset lots of strings and pads but they are easily created.
Two oscillators with four wave-forms in each and a powerful LFO combine to give an interesting depth and variation. Extra sound sources are crackle and hiss so it's also possible to get that LOFI retro-sampled feel.
