Re: do synths vst or reason stock synths accept audio from other tracks?

the reason for audio out is because i'm using Reason as a VST inside Reaper..........if thats still wrong please let me know It's not necessarily wrong, just not needed. See, thing is that audio already travels out of Thor, even without the routing rule. As a rule of thumb: you only need the matrix...

Re: do synths vst or reason stock synths accept audio from other tracks?

Filter 3 also works like a charm, indeed, I prefer using 1 and 2 though because of the shaper and/or amplifier which can help enhance the sound a bit.

Re: do synths vst or reason stock synths accept audio from other tracks?

Let's say we want to use the formant filter (I love that critter!) on Thor... Reset the device, click "show programmer" and set Osc 1 (now analog osc) to "Off" (just to be sure) and then set Filter 1 (now low pass ladder) to "Bypass". Now look at the arrows and think things through... The audio is c...

Re: do synths vst or reason stock synths accept audio from other tracks?

i see that thor has audio inputs and outputs now. If i send audio to it can i use its filters to change the sound? Yes. Keep in mind that you will have to use the routing matrix in Thor to set up the right (internal) connections. And welcome to the Reason patching essentials experience (as I like t...

Re: Hi - Reason 11 + Ableton 10 Workflow question

- Are reason song files created in Reason 11 compatible with Reason 10? No. It is possible that they'll load (which I sincerely doubt) but even then you need to take into consideration that Reason 11 has many more stock devices, which implies incompatibility. So short version: no. - Can I download ...

Re: do synths vst or reason stock synths accept audio from other tracks?

Not necessarily other tracks but... open the rack section, press tab to flip devices around and then check if those have audio inputs (synths like Thor and iirc Komplex do). If they have then you can utilize that. Not necessarily from another track, but definitely by applying some patching.

Re: Grain

In Machine there's a plugin called grain delay i was wondering if grain can do that within reason? Sounds like you're comparing apples & oranges here. Grain Delay (in Maschine) is an audio effect. But Grain in Reason is a sample based instrument, not an effect. Flip it around and you'll notice Grai...

Re: Sending Program Changes to Maschine ?

I'm having a hard time getting my fingers behind this. How exactly would you sent control cc's to to a VST in Live?

Reason I'm asking is because I don't see why you wouldn't be able to do the same thing in Reason, even if you use Push for it.

Re: I think I'm done with Reason, should I sell my license?

Why bet all your money on a single horse though? Of course it depends on what you're using your DAW(s) for and in full fairness I am biased as heck here as well because I've been using Ableton Live (suite) together with Reason for over 10 years now. But for me this is truly a "power combo". There ar...

Re: Can I upgrade from Reason 6??

I did this exact upgrade last years (from 6 to 10 with a free upgrade to 11). Well, there's a lot of other stuff going on right now so I can't always spend as much time with my home studio as I want to. Still.. I'm still discovering new things from time to time.

Definitely worth it.

I hardly follow suit with upgrades because in my opinion new Reason versions pop out way too often while they barely add something substantially new. Of course this is in the eye of the beholder. But I can easily summarize my past endeavours: started with 4 (with an option to get 5 which I never use...

Re: Help setting up Komplete Kontrol

Sounds like time to fire up the 'Controller Editor' to see how things got mapped exactly. You should be able to change the mapping(s) to something else for different sections of your keyboard. When in doubt try the "MCU transport" template to see if that does something for you.

At first I used Ableton Live and my APC40 to try and mix my work. That "kinda" worked but also turned into a bit of a disaster (it's easy to loose track on the APC40, especially since you don't have any indicators on the controller to tell you what you're working on right now).

Re: the Reason sound was a lie

Mixing is only part of the whole thing. You're right if you say that you can make high quality material using Reason, but having said that it's also true that many Reason instruments and presets can have a distinctive sound to them.

Just check their orchestral setup.
