• Realtime time-stretching and resynthesis
• Graphical breakpoint envelopes
• Integrated loop editor
• Integrated file-browser supporting drag and drop
• Analog-modelled filters (14 varieties from analog lowpass and highpass to exotic sound-design filters)
• Visually displayed modulation
• A broad range of insert and send effects, including EQs, waveshapers, delays, and reverbs
• 32 Outputs
• 256 stereo voices
• Filters, effects, and modulations can easily be added with one click. If an audio-process is not active, it is neither displayed on the screen nor calculated by the CPU.
• Unlike a conventional sampler, where pitch and length are always linked, KONTAKT痴 integrated granular resynthesis engine frees you to compose with pitch and timestretch independently.
• KONTAKT can play back each sample in one of three modes: classic mode, Time Machine mode, and Tone Machine mode. The Time Machine allows real-time manipulation of length, pitch, and formant. The Tone Machines imprints a playable pitch onto the sample and maintains the same length across the keyboard.
• Nearly all of KONTAKT痴 parameters can be dynamically modulated by LFOs, breakpoint envelopes, step-sequencers, or via MIDI velocity or controller
• 3GB Sound library
• Supports - Battery, AKAI S1000/S3000, SF2, Reaktor Map, LM-4, AIFF, WAV (8 - 32 bits)

• Reaktor Session is a Reaktor Ensemble Player.
• Design an individual studio environment from pre-built instruments
• Multiple instruments can easily be connected together in the streamlined structure editor.
• Sequencers, synthesizers, samplers, and effects can be mixed.
• Instrument/sample browser
• Uses the highly-optimized DSP algorithms of the 32-bit REAKTOR engine with up to 192 khz sample rate support
• All user interface objects can be fully controlled over MIDI with the built-in MIDI learn function.
• The REAKTOR SESSION library offers a world-renowned collection of synthesizers from analog-modelling to FM, from wavetable to additive.
• The sampler and transformer machines included in REAKTOR SESSION enable everything from quick and convenient sampling to a full granular workout.
• Many instruments in the REAKTOR SESSION library combine synthesis and sampling with sequencing for a variety of sequenced synths, beat boxes, and loop manipulators.
• REAKTOR SESSION can also be used as an extremely flexible effects processor. You can process sounds in VST or DXi from the audio inputs, or from the internal instruments. The effect library covers a full range of delay, reverb and modulation effects, filters, distortions, and dynamics processors, panning and surround effects, and granular pitch and vocoder effects. All effects can be combined for the creation of completely new realtime processing chains.
• A comprehensive selection of mixers and routers allow you to mix the input signals and instruments together, and to combine insert and send effects into the signal flow.
