So I hope to start a series of posts about using Reaktor core. Reaktor core is very powerful, but can be a little daunting at first. I was lucky enough to learn from Martijn Zwartjes while at CalArts, and I’m going to try my best to show some of the things were key to helping me understand core a little better. In this post I’m going to build a counter. Nothing fancy, just nuts and bolts.

Core Audio Cell
Audio vs. Event Core Cell
To start we need to create an empty “Audio core cell”. The reason we need an Audio cell instead of an Event cell, is that we need access to the Sample Rate Clock. Since the Sample clock only runs at Audio rate, it only works right in the Audio core cell. It is possible to select a Sample Rate Clock in an Event core cell, but it wont work the way we need.
