Please help! i have 2 questions for those who use GigaSampler and those who use Reaktor.
Which is the advantage of using GigaSampler with Pulsar if you already have the STS4000? More voices at once? More instruments? What exactly are the advantages?
Same question with Reaktor, which are the advantages working with Pulsar if you already have so many synthesisers within Pulsar itself? Again, more voices? More instruments at once, what?
I'm looking for more flexibility in sound and creation. Thanks Yuyo

1. Gigasampler streams sound from the disk drive. The size of an instrument can be measured in multiple gigabytes. The STS samplers are limited by your system RAM. That's why it's suggested that you dedicate a whole computer to Gigasampler.
2. Comparing creating synths in Pulsar's Modular II and in Reaktor: I'd say it's easier to create a very, very complex instrument in Reaktor and view all the modules, pieces, connections, etc. on a moderate sized screen. In Pulsar's Modular II you have one screen to place all of the pieces and it can much more messy than in Reaktor, especially if you're viewing all the virtual patch cables at once.
3. Sound quality: They all have slightly different electronic qualities but I would say overall that each product's sound quality is excellent in its own way.
If you're a very bright sound designer you could probably use just one out of Reaktor, Pulsar (Modular II) or Gigasampler and come up with all the sound you ever needed but in the world of music "you can't eat just one."
