Re: Help and information area

Thanks for explaining, I now realise you were talking about textual notes not midi or musical notes, I can see how this may be helpful as currently you can only add short text labels and set clip colour to add info. Perhaps OSC (open sound control), may be an option to allow custom scripting of tool...

Re: Help and information area

If one day we also have the possibility of taking clip notes in the sequencer, this area will display the note of the selected clip. These are just a few ideas that came to mind I'm a little confused about this statement, not being an ableton user and unable to see your images, what are you asking ...

Re: physical modules or Reason?

I now use a kind of hibread in the sense of MIDI control with Remote to give a more hands-on feel to the software but originally come from full hardware with audio mixers, samplers, turntables etc.

Re: Balance/ IK. What will you use yours for?

I purchased the Stanton Scratch Amp, just before NI & Stanton parted ways, I also have a bunch of CCTV gear from a company that use to be called 247 before they shut down, perhaps in 100 years these will be considered valuable collectables or just end up in a land field somewhere but for now they ar...

Re: [POLL] Stand-alone Users: How to you manage your Windows?

Generally I use expanded but mostly depend on MIDI Remote and now web browser for speech feedback, although still developing this.

Re: Petition to ask Reason developers to start using their DAW.

Lets start with how many in Reason Studios currently use Reason as their DAW of choice, then how many use reason rack pluggin on other DAWs. Then how many use DAWs of any nature. We should not assume anything but that said, the proof is in the pudding, so lets see if RS are happy to provide us with ...

Re: Reason+ Companion Missing Checkmarks

Personally I think it would be a better user experience if the installed check marks were there and an update available check mark was used where packs have new versions available. Perhaps even an optional filter to only show new and updated packs not installed as a quick and clear way to see what i...

Re: Accessibility of the browser panel

Thanks @Theo, I've never tried the Novation Impulse, I have the Novation Remote SL but the Automap software isn't screen reader friendly, so I did my own maps. I also have the FaderFox Micromodels (2nd) and a Studiologic 88key keyboard. I have a few other controllers but in general write my own maps...

Re: Accessibility of the browser panel

Thanks @theo, I've never used system access myself but understand it did use to work with Reasons browser. However, I suspect because of how the HD graphics are now managed, system access is unlikely to work with version 12. I'm a blind web dev myself and like you have been using Reason for many yea...

Re: Drum Pads and Keyboard split/zoning

A quick way to assign your drum pads to say Kong pads is with midi over-ride. It's not a feature I use often but I think its goes something like: enable midi over-ride in options then right-click each pad, select edit midi and use midi learn and then tap the pad. This can only be saved with the reas...

According to the DAW-Chart here all of these DAWs seem to have a freeze functionality: Reaper, Digital Performer, Cubase, Waveform, Studio 1, Pro Tools, Logic, FLStudio, Ableton Live many thanks @jam-s, assuming these all act the same as live in disabling the devices inside the freeze track, I wond...

Re: Folder tracks, please

So if the freeze feature disables all devices leaving just the new audio in place, can it be unfroze to restore all devices? Yes, that's how live handles it. What about other DAWs like ProTools, Logic, Cubass, Reaper etc do they also have a freeze type feature or is it live specific? I'm aware most...

Re: Folder tracks, please

Also just a thought, isn't bounce in place the same thing as track freeze called in other DAWs? It's close, but not the same as the devices are not disabled completely after the bounce and still use some CPU and RAM. So if the freeze feature disables all devices leaving just the new audio in place,...

Thanks for trying it out! There's still a few minor bugs in speech priority and as yet I still need to add feedback for flam hits. That said, if you control ReDrum from within Reason or via MIDI control surface while the web app is runing, you still get both visual and speech feedback. Some of the k...
