Reaktor 6 Primary Resonant EQ (Faking the Serge Resonant EQ in Reaktor) | Simon Hutchinson

Building a resonant EQ in Reaktor Primary, taking inspiration from the Serge Resonant EQ's unevenly-spaced frequencies and nonlinear controls. In my regular journeys across the internet, I came across the Random*Source Serge Resonant EQ, a reissue of the resonant EQ from the Serge Synthesizer, and became a bit taken with its implementation and ideas. $400 is a bit too much for an impulse buy, so let's see what we can do in Reaktor. Even if we don't end up with something that sounds perfect, we can use this as an opportunity to think more about subtractive synthesis, and talk about "parametric support" in our control schemes. 0:00 Purchase Your Way to Music Proficiency! 0:43 Random*Source Serge Resonant EQ 1:14 What's interesting about this? 2:59 Disclaimer 3:22 Reaktor Primary Peak EQ 5:00 "Boost" vs. "Resonance" 5:53 Making Selectable Sound Sources 8:18 Throwing in an Oscilloscope 8:49 Starting the Resonant EQ Macro 9:28 Creating a Single Band 11:24 Level Controls to Avoid Clipping 13:13 One Knob for Resonance and Boost 14:28 "Funny Math" 21:13 Recapping the Flow / Fine Tuning 22:49 Duplicate!
