A completely spectacular music platform, The Reactable is something more than just a gadget to make the DJs feel happy (not like car fans who would just look a Cheap used Audi car - this is something much more than that). It is a revolutionary machine that combines music and art and attracts the eyes while the ears enjoy the ultimate music experience.
Basically, the reactable is a machine made to create sounds and mix them. Trance and house music industries are the ones using Reactable the most and this is of course understandable since the sounds created are mainly directed in electronic music soundings. The technique used is a simple technology that allows object intereferance and positioning to be trasformed into sound - something we have seen with television and computer games.
The machine is a big lighting plot that has the ability to recognise position of the objects and objects themselves. When putting the object (which would be a specially created Reactable block that coresponds to a certain sound wave with specific multitude), you actually transform its position and movement into a sound. Putting more objects on the screen table increases the number and the variety of sounds that are being transmitted which enriches the music you are creating.
Additionally, the light effects of the Reactable are absolutely amazing - you can actually see the music moving, you can track down the changes in the sounds and see how different sounds interact. Something so amazing and spectacular that catches your sight and turns music and vision into one.
Definitely, the Reactable is one of the best music products ever released and for sure it can be be nominated for one of the best gadgets ever created. The technology, the effect, the sound quality and the visualisation are absolutely perfect. Unfortunately, the price is something that would be better kept in secret - such a technology definitely has its price.
