You have a thread here on KVR with the same list if i remember correctly, excellent reviews.
I don't remember posting them all in one thread, but I did have a thread that linked to my site with them. Also, anyone with NI Form can find a range of GUIs for it here, which are of course free.

Never forget Grip!

For the untrained ear, how to stay in key with this one? Sometimes these types of ensembles have scale filters.
What I like some much about SineBeats is finding sequences/melodies that are not in any scale. A dissonant bleepy bloppy motif works wonders in genres like hypnotic techno. Def not for everyone tho.

Totally agree. I've been doing a bit of cleanup on bEAST2, changing knob behavior (some have just 40 steps of mouse resolution!) and adding a few things here and there.

It's a deceptively powerful synth ensemble though. Make sure you hit the big 'Info' button at the top right corner of Reaktor, you can then hover over most controls to get a description (not all have it though but it usually makes sense after some testing.. or you follow the routing of the unknown knob/button).

Do you happen to know any quick way of cleaning up the synth for automation? Or is it just manual labour, going through each and every control?
The quick way is to sort and compress IDs but it just sorts them numerically - if you want to arrange automation Ids to follow a workflow you have to do it by hand. I did this for a few classic Reaktor ensembles I wanted to use in Komplete Kontrol but these were mostly relatively simple ones like Laserbrew as it's a tedious job (although I did do it for Grip and also all the Boscomacs).

I just downloaded the whole Boscomac bundle. Can't wait to try them out. I love Mister Thick :

One of the String presets is just the best I've ever heard in any synth. Ever.

by the way, that EMS Synthi emulation (SIAC), you can use it as effect unit, delay, ring modulator, spring reverb, also you can fire up the oscillators and the noise when it is working as FX, unfortunately there is no wet dry knob for the ring mod, it is full on blasting :DDD

Damn, just exploring this thread and clicking on the names of the developers in the user library to see their other creations made me download a bunch of synths and granular samplers and delays lol. There's just so much quality stuff in there!

HERE you can download my modded version of Sirius-8 (Google Drive, ZIP 73.7mb). All rights, honors and praise going to the original developer!

I modded it to have 12 voices max polyphony and I also changed the 'Age' knob to now mess with the keyboard tracking of notes, or at least you can drastically reduce the amount of keyboard tracking irregularity.

The ensemble is saved at 96kHz so you might want to change that in case your CPU can't handle it. I also included a few presets.

Thanks bmanic. I for one look forwards to trying this and appreciate your efforts.

The bmanic delays and reverbs rival the many $$$ software versions. I'd forgot how fun Reaktor is.
