I'm also curious about ES 4 Channel Dub Preamp (looks like a pretty deep discount).
I have this and really like it, but I use it just as a straight colouring effect (so far). I love putting Kicks through it with the saturation up a bit. Really rounds out the sound and pumps it up imo.

I use the Ozone Mastering Assistant to get the ball rolling on every track. It give you a great starting point I think.

Re: reason crash, press reopen why doesnt it open where the song left off?

Yeah Reason doesn't have any sort of automatic save function, so you've gotta keep remembering to mash CTRL S. I've had some sessions just go *pooof* out of existence without even an error notification or report after dropping a VST in the rack. Not fun.

Re: Anyone developing a mixer?

Yeah if you notice, that's how the hardware is designed (numbered buttons below numbers, and a mix of buttons with LEDs etc ... perhaps a case of being too close to the real thing doesn't translate into software?

Re: Anyone developing a mixer?

I think I remember Ekss saying one of the reasons his 6-ch mixer (which is great btw), only supports mono channels was he was limited to 8 inputs on the device and wanted to also add a stereo return channel. Was that just a GE restriction or something?

Re: Recommend me an audio interface.

To keep it on the basic (and therefore cheaper) side these are fantastic audio interfaces. Audio interfaces aren't the same as using a soundcard I know (I used to do it that way too), but these are far from Pro devices, so I think they should be friendly enough. https://focusrite.com/en/usb-audio-in...

Re: Who would you prefer to acquire Reason Studios?

Ultimately I'd love if they can make it work while still remaining independent, but if someone were to take over, I'd want them to at least have some interest in the whole skeuomorphic aspect of Reason - and if I'm being honest, even Reason Studios themselves has been a bit spotty on that front in r...

Re: What's Your (Reason Specific) Goto Limiter?

I use the free Kilohearts limiter RE, and Ozone 9 - I have IK's stuff but never got an better results than Ozone, so I stick with that. I use the Kilohearts one more as a "working" limiter while I'm still creating, and switch to Ozone when it's time to max the buffer and go to town.

Re: magic mouse causing video issues?

Hard to pin-point it without experiencing it myself, but could it be that you're accidentally swiping on the mouse's surface? The Magic Mouse has basically a single touch based surface and in my experience it's easy to accidentally swipe left or right with a finger even when not intentional .. ?? Ma...

Re: Softube gone from the shop?

I still use the saturation knob RE a lot though it’s true it should have a level adjust (I know there’s combi patch for that)

I never liked their bass amp RE. I don’t know what music it’s intended for but it sounds nothing like I ever want my bass to sound like.

Re: Robotic Bean - Portatron Tape Synthesizer (VST3)

Yeah I thought it was cool but couldn't work out how to "make music" with it so to speak.. at least the music that I usually make. Still temping at this price though. Maybe I could branch out into ambient drones.

Re: Is there utility in Reason 12 to make specific range mono?

Yeah even if it's properly mono etc, you can still have issues on vinyl if it's "too" bassy. I have an ambient album which is meant to signify deep underwater drones or something. It was originally intended for a vinyl release but it's so bass heavy / low in some parts the artist said it just wasn't...

It's not just abandoned RE's that have on-going issues - Glacius X by DNA Labs seems to corrupt itself (causing Reason to disable it) every time when browsing patches. Seems to be particularly worse if doing so while the song is playing. I've tried to get the dev to comment on it, who I assume is st...
