INSTALLATION & REQUIREMENTS

Important note :  COLLIDZ° can be open with the free Reaktor Player but you will be theoretically authorized to play with it for only 30 minutes. For an unlimited experience with the instrument, you need a full version of REAKTOR 6.

INSTALL

Unzip the package and drop the resulting folder wherever you want. Blinksonic° COLLIDZ° ensemble can be open directly by double-clicking on the file in your browser.

If you use a DAW (Ableton, Logic, etc..) you need to open the ensemble from Reaktor VST or AudioUnit plugin.

There are different methods to do so. Refer to the "Application reference" in the Help section of Reaktor. It explains how to manage directories/folders. But the most direct way would be this one :

  • in the browser on the left, click the « FILES » tab
    • then you can explore on your disk, following the folder which contains your ensembles.

      Note : In any case, when Reaktor is open, you can drag and drop the ensemble from your folder inside Reaktor.
