Re: Speculation thread - RS releasing new device

Apparently Niklas (CEO) recently said in an interview: "We have a new one coming out in March that Peter has developed, so watch out for that." What do you think it will be? I think it will be some form of new vocoder and perhaps also designed to play pitched vocal sample loops in that modern EDM s...

The Reason Studios LA2A. It's a classic, and as someone who came to the party too late to pick up this RE I'd love to see a new one.
It's a lovely idea but I just can't see it. I think they're more likely to do a modulation effect but I'd love to be proved wrong...

Re: Omnisphere like Refill?

Esoteric: intended for or likely to be understood by only a small number of people with a specialised knowledge or interest. A lot of the Omnisphere sounds are like that, very arty and not necessarily immediately obvious what they are - but they always sound very inspirational and professional out ...

Re: Speculation thread - RS releasing new device

Given there is perhaps no more revered FX box in history than the Eventide H3000, I wonder if it's something based on that? It's definitely a classic given it originally came out in 1986. I know we've already got Polar, so there is some overlap in terms of pitch shifting, but there's loads more that...

Re: Umpf - does it sound worse than redrum in default?

That may be an audio illusion, I can see no difference between the two Umpf machines compared to ReDrum/NNXT/Kong (Kong shown below the two Umpf devices): This is a square wave starting at full scale on the first sample, zoomed in all the way in Reason. In all other Reason samplers I listed above, ...

Re: Omnisphere like Refill?

What do you mean with exoteric? Maybe this is what I mean with Omnisphere. I am looking for inspiration when the mood is bad or the ideas are lacking. I love to craft sounds in Reason but sometimes it is very hard for me to find the right sound... in some songs I miss a very unique instrument that ...

Re: Umpf - does it sound worse than redrum in default?

I totally agree and it's probably the reason why it's not been seen as a bug. Yes, that's got to be right: there's no reason why samplers should all sound the same and indeed it could be useful if they didn't. Still: it seems odd that the Club version, surely aimed at a modern sound, dulls the tran...

Re: Omnisphere like Refill?

Thanks for the shares :) both look very interesting! Did anyone work also with omnisphere? I've worked with Omnisphere before. It's got a *lot* of sample content, some more towards the esoteric side but it's mostly just high quality sampled synths and organic sounds recorded with clever sound desig...

Re: (100% Subtractor) Habilis

Man I had no idea you could make drums and a whole damn song out of a synth! 🤯 It’s a good background melody and mood. Sounds great for a video game. I’m getting Zelda or Sonic vibes. It's a really fun challenge to set yourself; make a whole track or record using only a single synthesiser for every...

Sylenth1

I finally bought this after all these years. Works perfectly as a VST2 in Reason and I think that, regardless of age, it's still one of the best sounding virtual synths ever. I know everyone raves about Serum these days but I actually prefer the tone of Sylenth1. It just sounds so gorgeous layered u...

Re: Multi core audio rendering with M1

Multi-core rendering enabled, Hyper-threading disabled. Definitely need multi-core normally (although not sure about with Rosetta; that might cause problems). Never really understood why the hyper threading option is still presented even if your CPU doesn't support HT. I've not a CPU which supports...

Re: Speculation thread - RS releasing new device

Distortion/saturation. Huge, ubiquitous part of production and sound design and mixing across genres, and there hasn’t been a new dedicated device for it since 2003. Also there have been major improvements in digital distortion/saturation algorithms in recent years. Pulveriser in 2011! Still very g...

Hi The reverb kills my ears on the headphones, but that's al for my bad. I like to feel that we are trying to develop a melody here. From this point of view, the contract is fulfilled, although I would have liked a little more research. The idea and the originality are there in any case. Thx for sh...

Sounds really good. :thumbs_up: I think I often underestimate how much one can do with Subtractor. Drums are Subtractor too right? Yeah, it's all Subtractor. It's still a really powerful synth and it always sound great the more you stack it together. On that same EP, track 2 is 100% Malstrom, track...

As of 11.3.9, it was pretty rock solid with no show stopping bugs that I know of, aside from your aforementioned sample editor bug. Are you having other issues in 11.3.9?

Re: Issues on loading Reason 12.2.5 with freeze splash screen for 20 minutes and more ... [Mac Osx]

Update to Catalina. They (props) recommended it and it solved quite a few problems that were making R12 unusable. I was about to get a refund in fact. Interesting that they've recommended to upgrade but their minimum specs for Reason 12 state macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) or later (64-bit). They should...
