In this video, I show how to build a beat masher using Reaktor’s Beat Loop module. The sample is divided into 16th notes, which can be triggered via MIDI. In addition, a simple stutter glitch is created as well.

This project is simple to build and fun to use. In combination with last week’s tutorial on creating a pitchshifter using the Beat Loop, you can create some pretty interesting effects. Check out our first tutorial on the Beat Loop module here.
Another cool ability of the Beat Loop module is automatic timestretching (changing the length of a sample without changing it’s pitch). A sample will automatically be stretched to match the BPM of the host project. This is a fairly useful ability that is much more complicated with a standard sampling module.
