    Default Reaktor 5 for EDM (mostly techno/minimal)

    I just got this program and would like to know if its worth learning it (im gonna produce techno and minimal, maybe some other EDM genres except trance) and what manuals would u recommend or just the one that comes with it is fine. thanks

    Its very, very much 'worth learning' mate, although you'll need a fairly beefy PC to run it .
    Techno is a journey, not a race!

    You need to learn about synthesis to understand reaktor.

    Happily both can be learned at the same time. Its incredibly powerful and offers you the chance to truly make your own sounds rather than just use other people's presets.

    Or you can just use other peoples presets in reaktor synths, which are ....ing impressive

    its not really that type of program... reaktor isnt a synth... its a program with the ability to build synths. loads of people do this and so, you now can open other peoples work and make music with them.

    more on why no DVD:
