MERG-E For NI Reaktor 6.5
video upload by Antonio Blanca (antblanca)
"MERG-E is a sampler instrument for Reaktor 6.5, created for the exploration and transformation of audio through multiple simultaneous playheads (up to 8), loop memories, and a focused set of sound-shaping tools. Thanks to its Dynamic LAYERS system, it’s easy to move quickly between very different sonic results from lo-fi, broken, and tape-like textures to hyper-digital, chaotic, cinematic or minimal looping structures, all within a minimal interface designed to keep the focus on sound.
MERG-E is the result of a long process of experimentation around multi-playhead playback and loop manipulation, refined into a tool meant for fast, intuitive exploration with samples.
If you enjoy pushing recordings beyond their original context, I hope MERG-E finds a place in your workflow.
FEATURES:
- Create up to 8 Loop Slots to store different start and end points for the loaded sample
- Play Loop Slots or transpose them via MIDI notes
- Modulate Volume and Pan according to the playheads position
- Layer pitch can be quantized to preset intervals like Octaves, Fifths or Semitones, or fully shaped per layer using the Manual mode - Crush, Filter, Grain Delay with Pitch-shifting and Space effects
- VARIATE function to generate subtle sound variations or discover potential new sounds
- Includes 82 snapshots and 76 samples to explore and manipulate
- Optimized for real-time performance, allowing MIDI Learn and Automation on most parameters
- Light on CPU usage

Arturia Buchla Easel: Modular Presets + Patterns. Demo Jam
video upload by Anton Anru
"๐งฌ Genome Patterns is a collection of 64 patches with sequences for Arturia Buchla Easel V. The bank of presets contains dark, deep, atmospheric, harsh and aggressive sounds that have a wide range of uses: from cinematic to modular techno sequences.
๐ช️ The soundset is inspired by the biology, cosmic vibe, and modular sounds.
Perfect for Techno, Industrial, Dub, IDM, Experimental, Cinematic and others.
๐ฆ Get these sounds: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/ease...
๐ค The author of the soundset is skendi (Arseniy Pushkov).
๐งช All sequences are in the RUN mode, allowing you to change the pitch while playing. Sequences also play in a loop, so they can only be stopped by pressing stop in your DAW or by turning the synth's volume down.
You can use the patterns in playback mode or record them separately and work creatively with the audio file.
๐️ Each patch is performance-ready, with ModWheel assignments mapped for expressive control and making the preset brighter.
๐ก Compatible with Arturia Buchla Easel and Analog Lab.
Contains .mex (Easel) and .labx (Lab) versions.
Make sure you are using the latest software/firmware version.
๐ Minifreak, Pigments, and Buchla Easel presets can be imported into Arturia Analog Lab V.
If you like these sounds but don’t have Minifreak, Easel or Pigments and only own the Analog Lab V plugin, you can still purchase these sets and load them into Analog Lab V."
