Re: STREAM DECK XL - working on a Reason profile

We'll look more into the RemoteSDK regarding this, as the StreamDeck SDK seems more geared towards specific StreamDeck plugin coding (which might work but needs looking at). We've seen the Mackie MCU plugin StreamDeck has, and the MIDI plugin as well, so it's not impossible, just needs a bit of look...

Re: STREAM DECK XL - working on a Reason profile

Interesting..... StreamDeck MIDI plugin allows to and fro between DAW and Deck, via virtual MIDI - seems that an extra virtual MIDI connection is 'piped' between both, and a 'generic controller' would need adding in to Reason control surfaces. Easy enough. And the plugin is Mac and PC compatible Tha...

Re: STREAM DECK XL - working on a Reason profile

Same for functions not covered by Mackie Control such as save/undo (can they light when available to use?) Save / Undo etc are menu commands, so commonly your key-combo you would use gets assigned to the single Stream Deck button. Having Undo/Redo lit up when available might be quite cool to employ...

Re: STREAM DECK XL - working on a Reason profile

Will have to check for the Mackie functionality, and also see if there's a way to 'detect' some controls done on the DAW so the StreamDeck has 'feedback' response to what has changed. Totally get what you mean, so we can look into this too

Ok we've just did a quick search to find out how to get the directory listing via a browser, so could be cross platform method, we've got a colleague who uses mac too, so we can look into Mac and PC folder sniffing for RE installing (which is the main bit we need to build custom StreaDeck profiles)....

If you have perpetual and a few perpetual REs that will affect the way the units are selected (from browser or the menu listing). We've ...

We've been sorting out faster module creation in the rack. Main to speed up adding specific devices and Vst effects (our menus are huge with what's installed).

STREAM DECK XL - working on a Reason profile

Ez all, just a new thread to let you guys know we're working on a Stream Deck XL profile for Reason. We're on Reason 12, and started setting up ultra fast shortcut keys to create devices in the rack, and we've got a shedload of REs and VSTs, so we're going through a bit of a config phase. What we ca...

Re: Is there a workaround for only having one clock destination?

Nice, at least going in the right direction. BOMEs can be very cool for adding extra functions to MIDI input and converting to output too (we created a BOMEs template for BCD2000 to control Traktor waaay way back)

Re: How to make modern Reason sound like 4

The only difference we found depends on how hard you drive the outputs, but this is an extreme test and not the norm. We did a test a while back where R4 could stack say 8x Maximizers on a zero dB Sinewave, all maxed out (input up max, output up max, no limiter just pure gain) and when you added a 9...
