Spiritbox's album has been on constant rotation here for a while. Perfectly paced album and an incredibly satisfying heavy listen. https://youtu.be/8MP4QxsFICM I've been listening to a load of older Masayoshi Takanaka records, his music is pure joy in audio form and I love it. https://youtu.be/38ooj...

I'm too sensitive here, or does this part of his post is a bit harsh with perpetual license owners (like me)? I’ll wait right here while you perpetual owners thank your Reason+ subscriber friends, who made it possible for us to have a business model which allows us to continuously release improveme...

I really really like TrackSpacer - I tend to use it when I need individual elements to pop through a mix (drum hits & vocals, usually) and it works magnificently.

"Are you taking advantage of blocks?"

Yes.

Cubase will let you choose a mix channel for a record source but only in Pro not in Artist or Elements. It was the my main reason for upgrading to Pro as Artist was plenty enough for me in every other area.

I have somehow totally missed that then - back to the manual for me, then!

As for backwards compatibility, I wasn't aware, do other daw's not do this then? (I guess the answer is no) but this is surprising. In the sense that most DAWs can open projects made using earlier versions - yes, other DAWs can do that. Problems are almost certainly going to arise with regards to p...

I haven't used the RRP yet, but is it true that it doesn't let you print MIDI notes to the DAW sequencer from players? Because that's something I'd miss Can't speak for other DAWs, but it is totally possible to do in Cubase - I use BeatMap with Drumvolution quite frequently, and then record the out...

Original QRS was initially promoted more for smaller spaces, which was an "unexplored" area in the digital realm at that time (Early 1980s). Lexicon had the long colorful reverbs (still my faves), AMS had the non-lin thing, EMT 250 was "what it was" (nice chorus IIRC), but QRS was the only option f...

So if you use the RRP now, what do you miss from Reason? Great question! First thing I'd say is that I still maintain that Reason is greater than the sum of its parts, so the first thing I miss is the "whole" Reason. The RRP is a great thing to have, but I'd still much rather use the standalone "co...

I forgot to mention DR-1 Deep Reverb. I love that thing and if Synapse made it into a VST I would buy it immediately just so I could have an excuse to buy it twice. I kind of regret buying the Relab LX480 because while it may be the most accurate, I actually prefer DR-1's interpretation of that sty...

Yeah, I was thinking the GPU fan might be kicking in. But, to be honest, it shouldn't be that heavy on graphics, as it's really just (mostly) high def static images that are being rendered (as opposed to what it would be rendering in a game). I wouldn't rule that out as a distinct possibility. Alth...

I thought we talked about this much earlier? Seems like only yesterday, but this was 10 years ago and before REs etc. Probably some of my early mockup work, certainly not ready for "high res"… https://i.imgur.com/Wz4MIas.png Quite possibly! I remember this time in particular because it was shortly ...

The first (and only) time I properly used ReWire for a full project was in 2011 when I was working on a production album. I was having a full-on "grass is greener" moment after picking up Komplete 7, which may or may not have been compounded by my contracting glandular fever shortly beforehand. It w...

I have no problem with RS increasing the upgrade price - that's their perogative, and it's up to us as users to decide whether or not it's worth it. However, I take a little umbrage with this. Reason came out in the year 2000. You know when the last price increase was? Never That is flat-out untrue....

Given that Reason already supports CV and half-rack devices I don't think it would be that hard to do. They could implement an empty 3U and/or 6U high "Eurorack" style enclosure that can be added to the rack and then offer a selection of modules to populate it. That's exactly what I was thinking. I...

Years ago (pre-VST support, post RE-support so I'd guess somewhere around 2016?) I thought it'd be a neat idea to see Reason focussing a bit more on its semi-modular nature by introducing fully modular components to the rack. The RE store was already there, modular gear was exploding in popularity, ...

Think I'm in the minority, but I'd equate VST3 to be QOL. It's not really a feature but rather an improvement. Ditto. I'd take other QoL improvements over VST3 support for purely selfish reasons - but VST3 support is only going to become a larger issue as time goes by, so I totally understand the d...

am i just imagining this?... Snip has lost some of the clarity though... It looks the same as before, but I did want to chime in here and say that I will never get tired of the "Ken Lee" reference on the back of Neptune. For anyone unaware of the reference - enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y...

1. Was Roland serious about fighting you in the courts over Rebirth? Speculation, ahoy! I'd be amazed if things got even remotely close to that point - iOS Rebirth development stopped in 2013, and the PC/Mac versions were discontinued way back in 2005. I feel like Roland probably had a legal obliga...

It’s jangly

YES, I was trying to think of the right word for it and you've hit the nail on the head

I have yet to use a Kuassa plug-in that I didn't really like, and this is no exception. Lovely lovely amp sim, and it's filled a perfectly neat gap in my amp sim repertoire.

I think it's pretty darn cool - first time I fired it up I had some ideas going within a couple of minutes, and - without wishing to sound like a cliché - I'm all about instruments that inspire ideas. I also think it was a smart move to focus on making a creative sampler rather than a big ol' Kontak...

Blamsoft VK-1 Viking - a niche case; yeah it's just a rather limited monosynth, but its free (as in lunch) and WOAH that sound has so much character! Stack 2 in a combinator, add a Valhalla Delay, and you have huge sound for a tiny budget. I totally forgot VK-1 was a VST now! Blamsoft are definitel...

yea i get it now can someone help me figure out why i can't stack subtractors without getting some crazy ping sound THANK YOU When you say "crazy ping sound" do you mean that pluck right at the start? To me that just sounds like the filter enveolpe is being used to open & close the filter quickly, ...

anybody have any thoughts on the playback being paused when i open a different app like safari? also, it resumes right where it left off when i re-open Reason If you go to Edit->Preferences, click on the Audio tab and there should be a checkbox at the bottom that says "Play in background". Make sur...

I think Audiospillage (and specifically Drumspillage) are super underrated. Their plug-ins are AUs and are Mac only as a result, and I've only use Drumspillage 2... but nobody ever seems to talk about it and I think that's a huge shame! It hasn't been updated in years and I've moved back to Windows ...
