Skanner XT (REAKTOR)

SKANNER XT is a raucous and exciting synth from the creator of REAKTOR. Part sampler, part synth, SKANNER XT offers a broad range of sounds – from big and nasty basses to celestial pads and intriguing, morphing soundscapes.

Highly unpredictable, this instrument delivers an edge to your productions that no other synth can. SKANNER XT runs in REAKTOR PLAYER or the full REAKTOR version, and is also optimized for easy browsing from the MASCHINE hardware.

Despite the complex synthesis going on under the hood, SKANNER XT couldn’t be easier to use. Two views offer different levels of interaction: The ‘A’ view features the preset morpher and four macro controls — even subtle tweaks can create dramatic changes. Assign controls to the global LFO and hear SKANNER XT bring the wobble.

If you want to dig deeper into the architecture of SKANNER XT, the ’B’ view provides access to more detailed parameters. Assign the Macro controls to multiple parameters, and fine-tune the sound in detail. Use SKANNER XT with REAKTOR 5.6 or higher and you can replace the included samples with your own —discover their sonic potential when they get skanned.
