Re: List your ideas for "easy" upgrades to current modules

Yeah but quite often I actually make a full rhythm in a Redrum and mix it using the device (level, pan etc) rather than breaking out each sound to it's own channel, so a simple button on the device would help get around having to break out a single hit just to make it mono. It's not a big deal, jus...

Redrum - Add a 'mono' switch for forcing stereo samples to mono.
Wait...Doesn't only plugging in the Left cord give you the entire sound in mono, just like with HW instruments?

Re: Best Refill/RE with Jazz Trumpet Samples?

Not samples (or ReFill), but modeled... I am beta testing the SWAM brass instruments by Audio Modeling and they are very impressive and convincing. I'm using them with my Seaboard Block. I love their stuff and having acoustic modeled instruments that have so much expression and control. Wow that's ...

Best Refill/RE with Jazz Trumpet Samples?

I'm looking for convincing trumpet samples. Not loops, but samples that sound realistic. I'm composing songs for a jazz trumpet player and it's better to have at least a decent, somewhat passable sounding set of samples while working on them. I'm tired of those bleaty lambs squalking from the NX fro...

Re: Reason 11 is dropping ReWire completely.

So they're giving more reason to not use Reason's sequencer. They're prioritizing the rack above the seq. part. I guess it's inevitable seeing that Reason began as a rack.

Re: Reason 11 is dropping ReWire completely.

He usually rewires Reason to PT and cuts all the vocals and live instruments in PT. Will he still be able to open Reason as a VST and play the entire ...

Re: Reason 11 is dropping ReWire completely.

The only thing you’re actually losing without Rewire as you mentioned is Regroove, which I agree is a considerable loss. Otherwise, nothing else you mentioned would be affected at all. Plenty of VSTs have multi-outs and sync to tempo. It’s a Reason rack plugin, so you would use multiple instances l...

If you have a completely blank reason open in the background (as in open when OS starts) every new Reason file you open will not require you to login. I can't imagine it would take many ressources having a passive blank file open in the background? :)
That's worth checking into. Good idea.

Re: best auto tune product?

Especially if you're the engineer or producer and the singer is PAYING you to record and you need transparent tuning. I use Melodyne too. I've used the rest and I would say that for the glitch effect, AT works the best, but for transparent selective tuning, Melodyne can't be beat. The sound of pop m...

Re: New SAW-1 Discovery SawWave Synth in the shop

My buddy had a spray painted synth with cobbled together parts and maybe 3 knobs and the rest were just posts. It was a great sounding custom synth. It was butt ugly. But the sound was superb!

Anybody heard the thing on bass? what's the low end like? Are they fat, thick and round or not?

Re: Compressors. How many do you really need?

Our brain might consider a compressed sound to be louder than it actually is because it "thinks" the ear had to compress it.
