Well, this of course hits on a good question, namely, what does one mean by "best." Pedagogically speaking, Reaktor has good points and bad, but, from a value point of view, I agree completely. You can explore so much with Reaktor and with just a little bit of effort you can learn how to modify existing ensembles which is far more powerful pedagogically than I think that some realize.fmr wrote:Do you REALLY have Reaktor?

The user library is HUGE, and has MANY very good ensembles. And, contrary to some, the old factory libraries have VERY GOOD ensembles too, IMO. That nonsense about the "quality" is something I don't af«gree upon. If you want quality, run Reaktor at 96 kHz.
And for a beginner, it offers the resources to start from the very basic and grow up to the infinity. The best investment, IMO.
Reaktor and Kontakt are really the best reason to just start with Komplete.
