Re: Are Miroslav actually better than orkestor

IMHO, Miroslav is super dated, unless you get it for like 30 usd max, you're just throwing money away! I stil have it on my computer for legacy old projects but I don't use it anymore. On other hand i use some violin falls from the orkester! :) Miroslav is layered differently than the orkester, it h...

My ears are perking up, don't understand the language but I still enjoy it. I imagine your production brought out the best of it!

Thanks for sharing :)
Glad you liked it Aeox! We've been derailing this thread a bit with reason ranting but glad you liked the production!

Re: [A Capella SATB Choir] - Cartoon Medley Cover

Giles, Freaking auto punch in with pre-roll is super effective for audio and midi! Plus retrospective recording. I really need to get my head on Cubase remote and begon with it - worst case scenario, sell my BCF2000's and BCR2000 and buy something newer with better integration with cubase and at lea...

Re: Reason 12.2.9

what's your verdict on the SSL redrawing ? It's utterly pants here. If you've not tried it, just add a load of SubTs or whatever to a new document, more than will fill the mixer, and try to scroll. It's really laggy here :( I'm not aware of any scrolling redraw lag with the Rack, fwiw. Well Matt, I...

Reason is still the first place I go to get ideas started, but LUNA is now where I go to finish them! ;) Yep, I understand that.

Re: [A Capella SATB Choir] - Cartoon Medley Cover

I was also considering getting Melodyne studio. I'd take care of tuning and sync'ing really fast there, then pull it to Reason for mixing. But the update is so expensive that i can't justify it for now... I didn't know Melodyne had sync capabilities. I'll try to remember that if the task comes up a...

On a more positive note, the same song that would crawl to almost a halt plays PERFECTLY at a buffer of 64 samples at the default CPU setting on my new M1 Studio Max. The previous version needed 1024 sample buffers and turning off Multi-Core Rendering to play without glitches. Impressive performanc...

You know, something that would help working on timmings, would be a simmilar view on Pitch Edit as we have on midi, where you can see multiple tracks at the same time.

Yes, vst2's are working with this version of reason as other versions. Vst3 is in the works but it's not yet in this version. And at graphical level you have a new setting to related to the vst rescaling/zoom so if you have size surprises you should check what is the best setting. No, reason create...

Hi I finally decided to install this version but is it just me, the SSL console looks worst, fonts are blurry, not crisp, fonts are too pale, shadows are exaggerated.

Re: Reason real life limitations.

Actually the advanced pitch bending thing seems to be something you'd work out with portamento in synths and samplers, and reason has that since like almost forever? I guess you'd just need a way to activate and deactivate portamento by midi or CV.

Actual Reason real life limitations: - No VST3 - No VST MIDI out - No track folders - No markers - No video support Add to that no Auto Punch in, wich for me is more important than any of those (and tbh, is more idiotic for reason not to have, as that was part of freaking ADAT recorders and the mor...
