This time Cycles & Spots created a polyphonic sequencer instrument for NI Reaktor to trigger either the inbuilt synthesizer or external ones. It has several sequencing modes from traditional to Random to LFO but even the traditional one has numerous order options like backwards, inside out, zigzag and more. Each Step Notes can also be randomized, tempo synced or not. This makes it very fruitful and usable for many musical genres. It comes with 20 sequencer presets and the synhtesizer also features 20 presets. Speaking of the latter, it's an analog modeled synth which let's you mix 4 oscillators where the sine is FM-able and the pulse with width modulation option.

Cycles & Spots crafted a loops recorder in Reaktor that follows the basic idea of having 4 tape machines in your studio, though it didn’t quit stop there. This instrument can add randomness to the playbacks and by that can build everchanging compositions. Another main point is to have no tempo syncronization which adds more unpredictability and excitement. Double and half speed, forward and reverse play, amplitude envelope triggers and volumes can be manually set or randomly triggered. To get more of the old skool vibe, a tape sound emulation can be turned on for a bit of saturation and less or more of flutter and wow. On top of that the instrument features a tremolo effect for volume or left / right panning (also random rate possible), a dubby delay (watch out for the feedback) and a big reverb. So it’s easy to get real big sounding pieces out of this. The instrument is mainly to make Ambient, experimental music or soundscapes but it all depends on what you feed it with.

Cycles & Spots deliver a great allround pack for Ambient music productions. Inside you'll find all necessary elements: harmonic and percussive loops like synthesizer drones, abstract rhythms, effects and textures. Three methods of synthesis were used to archive interesting sounds: modular, granular and FM. This collection is superb to create complex soundscapes and even full length songs / arrangements. Naturally single loops can inspire you for other projects or you'll find missing pieces for already started songs. All is rather on the experimental side to offer more individuality than classic Ambient. All loops have 90BPM, are up to 16 bars long and are key-labeled if applicable of course. Many have unusal lengths to keep the rhythms exciting. In the audio demo 2 loops are always layered.
