I have 9. I just had Logic open and so it wouldn't download. So I figured I had to go to the shop.

In other words, I was being stupid.

I'd say new computer. I'd also strongly consider whether you need a laptop *or* do some research into which models are proven to play nice with audio. It's a bit of a minefield. For example on my laptop (J130ea i74700MQ) the performance is pretty good but I've always had issues with screen redraw a...

Took about a minute for me. Enjoying using Pro-R with Expanse

EDIT: being stupid. Couldn't download because I had Reason in rewire mode.

DUH...

When I go to the Props shop, the upgrade is showing as $129, even after I put it in the cart. But I thought 9.5 was going to be free for owners of 9.

Am I being stupid and missing something super obvious here? I hope I am.

Just put out an album (digital and limited edition cassette). This is my favorite song from that release:



(Made entirely in R8.)

Hmm, guess I'd have to discount the ones that are available in VST? If so, then: 1. Expanse Hyperwave Synthesizer 2. JP Steerpike BBD Delay The other ones I like use a lot available as VSTs/AUs, and in that format I could use them in Logic as well as in Reason, so I wouldn't buy them as REs. I'd sti...

Anyone know a quick fix for this? Ever since I installed the 9.5 beta, I can't seem to load R9 anymore to use via rewire with Logic. Works fine if I open it without having Logic open already.

Sonarworks is okay. You need to turn it off before bouncing, though. I think it's better to save the money and spend it on a pair of cans or earphones with a really flat response. What headphones are you using? ATH M50 (old ones, not the X) & AKG K701(same freq response as K702). Before VST support...

I don't have 9.5 though. How are VST's handling their patches in 9.5? Are they automatically going to and remembering their correct default locations? Are you having to spend time browsing to the correct location every time you open them? If you open them from the VST itself (which pops open with a...

As he points out, the reason for gain structure is to eliminate clipping while delivering the lowest possible noise floor. Is anyone actually hearing clipping or hiss (not SEEING it on the meters)? I never do. About the only thing you can clip with Reason is the final output that is after the maste...

I have no audio training at all but I did watch matts video about 6 months ago and it was somewhat of an epiphany for me- I had all kinds of problems before that due to my ignorance and lack of knowledge and couldn't get my mixes loud (not Loud wars loud but having to crank the volume knob to full ...

That's not an issue with most VST/AU devs. Buying and installing from Synapse, iZotope, U-He, Plugin Alliance, Soundtoys, etc. is super easy.

I'm going to be difficult and re-split it into four categories:

Frequently Used
Thor
Kong
NN-XT

Sometimes Used
Redrum
Dr. OctoRex

Rarely Used
Subtractor

Never Used
Malstrom
That funny blue piano thing

To be honest, I'm not sure how necessary that specific approach to gain staging is in a digital environment. I mean, clipping is clipping, and running things too hot is going to be a problem no matter what. But in that tutorial, he talks about adjusting the faders for gain as if it's some holy sin a...

Radical Jug.

Here's what I hope is included:

1. Freeze tracks

2. Subtractor 2.0

3. A badass chorus/ensemble effect

It's not coming in at the mastering phase--that would make life a lot easier. Unfortunately for me, the artifacts are there on unmastered bounces with -6db peak and nothing on the master channel. (When converted to 128 MP3). But I guess inter sample peaks can be an issue on mixing as well as masteri...

I really don't think it's an issue. Props make money off REs in the shop, there are plenty of indie developers who code exclusively for the RE format, and REs offer connectivity advantages over VST. The RE market *may shrink* but as long as those things remain true, there will people buying REs over...

Anyone have any ideas?

Neutron is very handy, but be careful with the automated stuff. It can often lead you down a bad path.

The EQ masking is very helpful.

Yeah Rewire is great for using RE synths in another DAW, but not so great for using RE or stock effects.

At this point, I don't think I will dump Logic. I might have never bought it, had Reason introduced VST support in 2015, but now I enjoy working in that environment. On the other hand, this will keep me from moving farther away from Reason, which is what had been happening over the past year. For ex...

Said this in the other thread, I think it's going to become a platform for indie devs--like PSN for games. VST may kill off the possibilities of seeing big devs do RE versions of their software but there will still be lots of interesting stuff from indie devs. And frankly, already half of the REs I ...
