Excellent course! Very thorough and easy to understand. I've been using Logic and Konakt for years, but never really dug into making my own sample libraries. Now I feel that I have the tools to sample just about any sound I can create in my studio, both acoustic and electronic.

Clear, thorough, and very helpful.

Excellent tutorials, clear and easy to understand. Well Done..!

Thank you Thavius for this very informative course. I learned a ton of things from that 2nd part as I expected and I was given a lot of useful ideas. Cheers!

I've had NI Komplete since version 5 and every 2 or 3 years when the offer is too good to refuse I buy the upgrade. All of their instrument are so deep that between those, Logic, Kontact Instruments and mixing plugins, I need something like an MPV library pass to even scratch the surface of what can be done. Finally getting the time to dig into Reaktor and it just points out how good the value proposition NI provides really is, This course did a good job of getting into Blocks and helping make fun and inspiring sounds almost immediately. It provided a good background into the ideas of modular synthesis and enough concreteness that when I read the Reaktor manual now it isn't all Greek. While I was going through it patching along with the instructor I thought of something potentially useful I'd like to share. Matt said he was waiting for the day when they came up with a module that allowed Blocks to be polyphonic. Just recently I did Josh Carney's sound design in Logic course and this occurred to me. You could use Blocks in plugin mode and Logic's sampler to map it over the keyboard. You'd lose the ability to tweak parameters on the fly, but if you had a patch you really wanted to hear as a pad, it would get the job done. Thanks to MPV and their instructors with every new course I feel like I can take these instruments and get some personal musical expression from them and that's a big reason we do this.

Like all his courses on Elektron machines, Thavius' s stuff is clear, well structured and full of nice tips to get quick into the machine. there is some sound design advices and the puzzle get extremely clear during the course AND at the end. The main quality of Thavius Beck is to make you feel nicely how elektron machines have much much potential. If you want to discover the analog four MK 1 or MK 2 this 24 lessons are definitely for you. HIGHLY RECOMMANDED !!!

Got some great insight into the interface even though I've been using it for years. Plenty of spots where I had that "Ah, got it!" exclamation!

Excellent!!
