Reaktor 6 is a separate install, so yes.

Yep, Reaktor 6 has a bit of Core optimizations compared to Reaktor 5. That's why Monark is taking a bit less CPU in R6P.

But other synths like Spark used more CPU on Player 6

.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well, it's time to buy a better computer

I've never been a massive Reaktor fan, but the 3 free R6 ensembles are pretty cool. Thanks NI

Man, they would have made a lot of money if they had allowed use of the coupon on Reaktor upgrades. It just doesn't make a lot of sense for Komplete owners to upgrade Reaktor independently, absent a mechanism for easing what is otherwise just extra cost for the patient users who will update Komplete at 11.

So be it. Freebies are still much appreciated.

This is not nice. How long will R5 owners have to wait for a moderate upgrade-offer?

To be fair, we can just use the R6 Player until K11 comes.

This is true, but I am willing to bet that the money gained from R6 upgrade sales allowing the use of the coupon would vastly exceed that of sales at full price.

Could the free R6 player also play back other blocks?

In demo mode I think so - 30 mins play at a time, not bad.

Very cool thanks NI.

Btw, does the Reaktor Player 5 upgrade to version 6 automatically, or do they function separately? I saw i got updates for Massive, Driver and Supercharger, but none for Reaktor Player 5.

They exist separately.
