A selection of blocks from the full Nano Pack (the full pack contains over 500 blocks).

The blocks make use of Infinite Linear Oversampling (ILO) for waveshapers, samplers, wavetables and oscillators. ILO is a DSP technique that greatly reduces aliasing distortion for an extremely clean / analog sound.

The pack includes a suite of versatile sequencer blocks that can be combined for creative sequencing and routing of sounds. Each block includes a bank of 8 editable snapshots that can be sequenced using modulation or MIDI.

Included modules:



Effects

Distortion

  • Distortion - 6 types of distortion.
  • Saturator - A saturator effect. The saturator uses 'Infinite Linear Oversampling' to reduce aliasing artefacts.

Dynamics

  • Compressor - A stereo compressor effect using a peak detection method.

 Modulation Effects

  • Chorus - A chorus effect.
  • Flanger - A stereo flanger effect.
  • Phaser - A stereo phaser effect.

Reverb & Delay

  • Reverb - A stereo reverb effect.
  • Single Delay - A single delay.

Special

  • Bit Crusher - A bit crusher effect.
  • Granular Pitch Shifter - A granular pitch-shifter.
  • Multi-Effects - A simple multi effects block with 3 separate stages: 
  • Unison - A unison / detune effect. The RESET input resets the buffer that is used to detune the audio signal. If the RESET port is not connected then buffer is reset using when the input exceeds a threshold set by the THRESHOLD control.

Spectral 

  • Pitch Shifter - A high-quality FFT based pitch-shifter. Based on a brilliant macro by Jan Brähler.
  • Spectral Effects - FFT based effects with a 256 block size. When both inputs are connected then input 1 is the vocoder carrier and input 2 is the vocoder modulator and the FFT effects are applied to the modulator. When only input 2 is connected then the input is vocoded against itself. If only input 1 is connected then the FFT effects are applied directly to the input signal. Thanks to Stephan Schmitt, Gabriel Mulzer and Martijn Deluxe for their excellent Ez FFT macros. 

 


Filters 

  • Bell EQ - A bell EQ filter.
  • Comb Filter - A high quality comb filter with damping.

    Sequencers

    • Gate Sequencer - An 8 step gate sequencer, connect the output of the 'Nano Ramp' block to 'drive' the position of the sequence.
    • LiveCore - LiveCore (Allows live coding in Reaktor core cells), open the block in ensemble mode to edit the LiveCore patches. See https://github.com/freeeco/livecore for more information.
    • Note Sequencer - An 8 step note sequencer (click on a step and hold and then play a MIDI note to set the value of that step via MIDI).
    • Position Divider - Splits up a position signal into up to 4 separate position signals.
    • Position Effects - Applies a variety of effects transformations to the incoming position signal.
    • Position Splitter - Splits up a position signal into up to 4 separate position signals.
      The are 5 different modes for splitting the signal up in different ways:
      FAST = The position signal is split into parts of even length and then each part is multiplied by the MULT knobs.
      REPEAT = The position signal is split into parts of varying length (depending on the MULT knobs) and then each part is multiplied by the MULT knobs, therefore repeating each of the sections yet keeping the speed of each section the same.
      SPLIT = The position signal is split into parts of varying length (depending on the MULT knobs).
      FIX = Same as REPEAT except the the overall length of the sequence is fixed.
      STRETCH = Same as SPLIT except the the overall length of the sequence is fixed.
      Click on the LEDs to mute the outputs. You can also use these LED buttons to select how many steps are in the sequence if the only the POS output port is connected.
