Re: Audio interface suggestions?
I personally did a song and dance trying a lot of (consumer-level) interfaces until I finally just bought a used UA Apollo Twin Solo (cheapest one, the first model) for about $350. UAD includes 14 free legacy plug-ins - pretty good stuff actually, better than lot of my Reason & Logic plugins. The Re...

Re: 2-5-1 progression and jazz ... why?
Comes from the melodic/solo concept too. Bebop is based on improvising fast eigth note lines that hit 1-3-5-7 chord tones on strong beats, or the important tensions (b9/#9, natural 9, b13 or natural 13). The ii is just a sequitor for a V chord, but the magic is making an unaccompagnied ii-V-I melody...

Re: Blamsoft Expanse Or The Propellerheads Synthetic Bundle?
I already have Predator and Antidote, but I'm still considering the bundle. I'm a big fan of RP's synths, and Sub Bass and Quad had some nice sounds when I trialed them last year. Lame that I spent more on the 2 priciest synths in the bundle than this entire deal costs, and I just get them again wit...

…SINCE the competition offers more for less. In my case the competition offers less, but I realize it's a personal thing. I was just working on a song I started in Logic.

Re: Why PH not allow resale of RE
I am wondering if so many discussions are on Steam... They are not the same things. A dev can create a VST and RE. The VST is allowed to be resold. The RE is not. Bringing up Steam is a fair point, but economics are relative... the gaming market would completely cave upon itself if gamers were able...

Re: Why PH not allow resale of RE
I'm disappointed in the block of RE transfers/resales. Honestly, I think it hurts their business in the grand scheme of things. I stopped myself from buying any more REs after realizing I'm chained to whatever I purchase. Especially after seeing some enticing bundles with several REs I already own.....

Re: Has anyone ever received a refund?
I did not get a refund when I requested one for a PH instrument bundle.

I asked for a refund so I could buy ...

Re: So... It's 2016. Reason 9? Line 6 amps gone by October
Bummer. I like the L6 amps for what they are. Kuassa's sound much different. I get some strange artifacts with Creme and Vermillion. L6 amp sounds more smooth and "processed," which is good for some situations. Haven't tried Softube's amps yet. Still on R7. Oh well, not that big a deal. I have a Pod...

Re: is it just me or is editing audio in reason a total bummer?
My means of editing has been using 2 tracks and using the fade-in/out mechanism with clips, but honestly it's not a smooth process. Ironically I'd get less clicks when I simply cut and stretched clips so there's no space on the sequencer... This works until I get stutter from a repeated audio clip. ...

Re: Why I Don't Buy Extensions
*shrug* PredatorRE sounds more like the Predator VST, than like a Reason stock rack (Thor). What's the draw-back of trying REs for 30-days and deciding if your stock racks can do it all? Well, the draw-back is you're persuaded to buy it, cause it sucks making something sound cool and then have that ...

Re: Quit whining about the hardware and learn proper technique
The one lame thing is that good hardware is sometimes flawed by buggy OS updates. Anyway, fact of the matter is that the software updates keep using more power, and audio-interfaces that have a certain number of years on them start seeing less support (or newer interfaces aren't updated quickly enou...

Re: logic stock sounds = wow
Agreed with this thread. As far as stock sounds go, Logic burns Reason. The Orkester Sound Bank sounds like Casio. Charming but unusable for a serious film-score production. The PH stock presets generally suck. Of course you can get a unlimited use out of the synths, but the presets are atrocious. I...

Re: COME ON PROPS...IT'S 2016...TIME TO ALLOW VST SUPPORT
End of the day, I'd sooner expect an Omnisphere RE as opposed to VST support. Just saying, Reason is built differently than other DAWs. It'd require a total rebuild IMO to support VSTs. Reason is a very graphically oriented program, with every rack's I/O and knob/button visualized. Logic and Ableton...

Re: COME ON PROPS...IT'S 2016...TIME TO ALLOW VST SUPPORT
I do think it'd be neat if Reason make a rack that allowed internal-audio re-routing for standalone plugins, ala Soundflower but more straight-forward. But supporting VSTs is a bit unnecessary. If you want VSTs, just get Reaper or Renoise. its very necessary. nothing wrong with it. those of you who...

Re: Nektar Panorama company Forgot Reason
The keybed and pitch bend always felt stiff, and I'll agree the mixer/fx implentation is much more natural on Logic... But it is still the best thing Reason has going. There are a handful of REs that don't work, but Predator does, and it's a lot of fun. My one wish is for a Redrum/TB303 step-sequenc...
