While my "the splash screen is rubbish" comment was totally glib and should be taken as such, I do think it's funny that there are people insisting that the splash screen isn't at all important in an update currently dedicated primarily to graphical improvements.

As a 1080p user I don't really stand to gain anything from the revamped graphics engine. If anything, my experience has been kind of worsened with increased RAM usage and cache delays, and that sort of sucks. BUT ! I don't want to be a Debbie Downer here - I think it's a great step in the right dire...

It's been a while since I did this but no, I never used the Virus as my audio interface. In fact I don't think I've ever used the Virus as an audio interface! Yeah I've not used it as an audio interface either. I seem to have everything connected correctly within Element (as per your screenshots) L...

Element is free now, if you wanted to try it out. I'm not even salty about paying for it because it's actually been incredibly useful to have as a sort-of plug-in Swiss Army Knife :) Hey Adam. For the Element workaround do you have to have the virus set as the main audio interface in Reason Prefs? ...

Typical format for me is "ProjectName-VagueTrackName", so if it's sound design work it'll be "SoundDesign-BlahBlah", if it's a general idea then just "Idea-BlahBlah", band stuff is "BandName-BlahBlah", you get the idea. Typically the vague track name is a rough description of the track so I recognis...

I always tend to work at the same sample rate/bit depth as my intended release format. I'm working at 48khz as that's a pretty solid catch-all for all release formats I'm working toward these days. That said, I strongly doubt I'll be going higher than 48khz any time soon as I firmly believe digital ...

I'm fine with Reason adopting its own particular way of handling track folders - I think the key areas to look at are how it works in the mixer, how it works in the sequencer, and how it works when you're exporting stuff. I sort of feel like a neat, Reason-y way to handle it (i.e. without making thi...

^ Exactly. The reason why I've been working in Reason despite having objectively more fully featured alternatives is that the way all the parts work together is unique to the program. The way I can get any device to modulate any other device. Integrated pattern control and Player bouncing right the...

Just wanted to chime in on this. I can't speak for adfielding, but I'll likely continue to use Reason in some capacity as time goes on. Oh yeah - I haven't totally ditched Reason yet (though I'll get to that in a sec), I'm still using it for one-off ideas and sound design projects because it's stil...

Interestingly, I think the idea of workarounds actually explains my personal concern with the current direction of Reason to a certain degree. Despite being not-so-great for workflow, I've generally accepted that workarounds have been necessary to use Reason the way I've wanted to in the past - thou...

I thought I read that Reason 11 could upload and work w/ video and be able to score the movies audio. Any Idea how to do that trick w/ 11? You can't work with video in Reason 11 without using 3rd party tools. I've used VidPlayVST successfully in the past, though even that can have varied results de...

Man that's a bummer (It also explains your Youtube hiatus, I guess). But i understand you, and tbh the lack of sequencer improvements for 12 is letting down too. In all fairness - my streaming hiatus has had more to do with being busy and/or not really feeling the inclination lately. The sequencer ...

GR6 is amazing. it’s got a huge, great-sounding stock of amps and cabs. I particularly love cranking up the mic distance from the speaker to get more room sound. and of course there are a ton of excellent effects too. Shame on me - I haven't even properly fired it up, yet! I picked up NeuralDSP's N...

This is something I've noticed since around Reason 7, and it's always the same complaints about Reason that it doesn't have this or that. I thought with the RRP they would simmer down but no, still everytime a new release is on the way it's complaining as if Reason doesn't even have a sequencer or ...

I can really relate to your post. Making the leap from R10 to 12 with the latest deal made sense for me especially with a 3rd party offer. But I no longer see Reason as the all in one solution as I used to. So I've moved on. totally agree. I’ll always be optimistic and looking around that next corn...

Super-8 sits on Reaktor to open, so you can use it inside reason! ( i'm trying most of the stuff in NI to make sure I need the half-price upgrade) That used to be the case, but the version of Super 8 that comes with Komplete 13 (R2) doesn't seem to be a Reaktor instrument. From the NI site: The ori...

I was going to post something long and rambly about how I feel about Reason 12 at the present time (and from what we know about it), but then I realised nobody likes a rambling downer of a post - so I'll sum it up by saying that I no longer really feel like the target audience for Reason, and that's...

I just updated to K13 from K11, mainly for Kontakt 6 but everything else (including Massive X and Guitar Rig 6) is a very nice bonus. I was considering going for Ultimate but, as always, I realised that I don't use everything that's in the regular version of Komplete as it is, so piling more stuff o...

I've being using resonic.at browser since r10s has been dreadfully slow. It's amazing but Windows only. Id recommend your check it out. Ultra fast search and audio playback. I hadn't even considered using an external browser - not so much for Reason, but Cubase relies on the OS browser/explorer so ...

But by and large, there's this arrogant vibe about Reason not being music software for grown ups I would hate to work with anyone who would look down on a person producing good quality results solely because of the tools they choose to use. Funnily enough, I have never ever worked with anyone like ...

Hi Adam would you mind me asking what you mean by the bass boost trick. I have heard of adding a boost on a pultec at 70hz and then multiband compression at the same frequency and wondered if you mean this or some other trick that can be implemented? I have the eve eq and it's a very nice rack exte...

I love Kuassa's plug-ins, they've been a steady staple ever since they started making REs way back when (I still remember how nice it was to start using Vermillion and Creme as opposed to the old Line-6 amp in Reason!). Their amp sims are great but by far my most-used Kuassa plug-in right now is the...

Right, I've updated the script to also update the chunk size field. Again, not pretty, but it works. Check the earlier post for the updated version. Big thanks again to orthodox for pointing it out! If you were brave enough to use the old script, you might want to restore your original files and run...

I've attached the Python 3 script in case anyone fancies a giggle. Giggles aside, it does not correct the chunk size field at file offset 4, the size should be increased by 36 (number of bytes inserted). That may be a problem with some application opening it, it can alert or simply chop the tail of...

Just in case you missed it, do you update the total-size-of-chunks field at 0x04 in the file after the insert? Yeah, what I did wasn't particularly elegant - I basically just took the junk chunk from an exported Reason file (minus the final four bytes) and used that as a base, so all my script is d...
