Re: Roland Cloud

Fotizimo, if you're going to buy just one, I'd say the SH-2, then maybe the Promars. I'd love the System-100M, but maybe another day. I'm also looking to pick up the D-05 having played a friend's D-50. I just spent the last two hours playing with the SH-101, SH-2, System-100, and Promars... and I r...

Re: Roland Cloud

I will have to pay $480 USD (sub for 2 years) just to "own" the Juno 106 and Jupiter 8. That's almost laughably too expensive for what you get, IMHO. We're in Omnisphere 2 range at that price point... Or you could look at it from the point of view, that for $480 USD for two years, you get access to...

Re: Roland Cloud

On the scale though they keep adding new devices near every month and in the end you have a huge library that you pay for $20 a month. I'd prefer pay though for each synth and have a third if not a quarter of the content but have synths I'd actually use. I want the D-50, the Juno-106, the 808 & 909...

Haven't had a chance to download this, but am wondering if anyone knows how big the download would be as this is ROMpler? I have never bought a ROMpler before so I have no clue what the file or its corresponding refill would be.
Around 200MB IIRC.

Re: Has Rack Extensions been a success and what do you think REs future will look like?

Sure. The future of Reason - in MY opinion - should not rely HEAVILY on niche Eurorack devices because it is a VERY small piece of the pie Propellerhead are baking. You want to turn Reason into this boutique Eurorack collective and I vote NAY because in the words of those Bud Light Commercials - "F...

Re: Has Rack Extensions been a success and what do think REs future will look like?

I think you will find two types answers depending on if the person is a customer or developer. As an RE customer, I could not be happier with the products we have got. There really are some world-class instruments and effects that we now have access to. I just fear their days may be numbered if we f...

It's almost a DAW on it's own (no MIDI tracks), and it's color correction is world class. Some will argue it's video editing isn't world class, but wh...

Re: Rent-To-Own in the Propshop!

Honestly, this is what I have been waiting for from PH in regards to their shop. I am tired of waiting to for sales, so if they can get some third party REs behind this, I will be the first on board (I don't actually want/need anything currently available).

I have been a subscriber to their cloud for almost a year. They have a few unique elements of their cloud offer which I like, although in the long run, they are a bit expensive.

You are shopping at shop.propellerheads.se and are looking over a picture of a beautiful synth, and without thinking, instinctively reach for TAB to take a look at the back of the thing.
