Cycles & Spots created a a new version of their first Reaktor instrument Lifeform with 400 samples implemented, a perfect tool for Ambient productions and soundscape building. It's very easy and quick to get beautiful or harmonic or disharmonic textures, even using only one sample. These can be very dynamic in terms of changes in the actual sound over long time periods (You can cross-modulate all LFOs with each other). Though it is also possible to dive deep into this instrument and control every little detail. The Lifeform concept is to have 2 granular samplers playing and mixing these together plus lots of modulation. In fact this version has a modulation matrix featuring 8 LFOs (sine to random) and 8 destinations for the granular samplers. Both samplers feature the standard grain funktions and can be frequency shifted and equalized. Effect-wise there are grain delays for the left and right channel and a superb lush reverb.

Mutator is a multi effect for NI Reaktor combining Tremolo, Resonator, Reverb and Delay. All these effects can be triggered / modulated from rhythmical to randomly on certain parameters. This mutates the incoming signal from subtle to drastic, like a bit of rhythmical reverb slightly changing its time or completely modulating wet signals which make the original sound unrecognizable. This makes this ensemble useful to enhance your overall mix and make your tracks more alive or to get experimental and make Ambient or IDM music. Mutator comes with 50 ensemble presets and each FX module also contains around 50 presets which can be easily (re)combined to create more ensemble presets. For those who want to dive deeper naturally all the FX modules and triggers / modulations can be changed or set up completely from scratch. The parameters which can be triggered / modulated are color-coded to make things easier.

Playground is a creative sample player useful for several genres (Hip Hop, House, Ambient & more). It comes with 50 carefully designed kits, each consists of 16 samples which all go along very well (no need for music theory). These kits consist of drums and or sounds (like chords, bass & more) or a mixture of those. It's fun and easy to play around and quickly get song ideas and variations. It's also possible to use more than one instance to combine different kits to get more complex structures (CPU friendly). This instrument is most fun with a grid / pads MIDI controller but works nicely with any other MIDI device. The onboard effects (reverb, delay, chorus, phaser, pitch / pan LFO) and the amp envelope let you shape the sound some more. This instrument is meant to give you quick and direct inspirations without thinking too much.
