Instruments

Instruments generate sound internally, respond to MIDI, or use loaded audio as their source. The section also includes s3g Tracker, a MIDI-generating CLAP that sequences downstream instruments without producing audio itself. Spatial instruments also appear under Ambisonic Encoders. Processor Ambi Grain is listed under Ambisonic Effects as well: use it to granulate loaded ACN/SN3D media while keeping the encoded field coherent.

Sections

• s3g Tracker: a host-synchronized polymetric MIDI tracker with sequencing effects, pattern and Song modes, timing warps, Live Code, and eight REAPER-routable output buses.
• Drums: synthesized mono/stereo drum instruments, the companion Drum Overload effect, and an eight-lane stereo Drum Mixer 16.
• Generative Instruments: internally synthesized feedback, byte, terrain, weather, liquid, pulsaret, stochastic, and logic fields, including Processor Feedback Shift 0.18.1.
• Sample / Loop Instruments: one or more loaded files used as persistent multichannel or encoded source material.
• Voice / Language Instruments: voicebank synthesis, phrase mapping, and the companion voicebank-building workflow.

Cross-listed Spatial Instruments

Spatial instruments are listed here by how their sound is generated and under Ambisonic Encoders by signal format. The instrument pages explain synthesis and performance; the Ambisonics sections provide the surrounding encoder, effect, utility, and decoder workflow.

Routing

Check the instrument's output format before inserting it. Processor Errant is stereo. Processor Feedback Shift, Processor No Input Mixer, Processor Fault, and the loop instruments use ordinary multichannel lanes; route them to the intended main speaker outputs, a downstream direct panner, or Output Autogain Stereo/Quad for fold-down monitoring. Feedback Shift also accepts eight ordinary input lanes and is advertised as an audio effect rather than an instrument. Ambisonic instruments use either a 16- or 64-channel host bus; the product page gives the required width. Ambi Encoder Modal can instead publish eight body stems, and Ambi Encoder Membrane Kick can publish sixteen membrane pickups or a stereo downmix on channels 1–2. In an encoded mode, the active order occupies the first (order + 1)^2 channels and should be followed by an ambisonic decoder.
