Re: Gotta love Reason's back compat.

I'm not sure why some think this really stands out. I can still load old projects in Bandlab that were made in Sonar 2 and Gigastudio.

Re: IS REASON 12 THE LAST PERPETUAL VERSION

The sub pandemic is annoying. Few people are aware that most developers have offed them but they are not pushed heavily.

If you are on a Windows system and the whole world went sub there's plenty of older software that still works.

There is if you spend time around the back of the rack patching CV cables. The whole process is better integrated & more streamlined with REs than with VSTs
not really. did you try SnapHeap?
Not only that but their VSTs are version 2.

Re: They seem to really need the money: REASON 12 UPGRADE 60% OFF

On the other hand, this offer should have been active during the whole May Madness period. Probably not enough people fell for the "We raise the price first and than offer a discount above the original price", so they are lowering it even further to get at least some income.

Hopefully they don't announce R13 two weeks later. That would irritate some.

Re: Latest Roadmap (June 3 2022)

At home, I find M1 compatibility more important than VST 3 format _ I can't think of a single VST3-only plugin that I have to that I want. I might be in the minority here. I've been only installing VST3 because having both takes longer on plugin scans and adds up in plugin menus. Most often virtual...

Re: Reason 12.2.6 Release Notes

I'm doing a VST3 makeover. Not every synth is vst3. I guess Sylenth will never be. So far Spire and Serum are not vst3. I'm starting to remove vsts I never use. Of all the DAWs I have Reason's browser is like it's website with the over abundance o VSTs and REs.

The reason most of them don't tell you how they recorded and processed the sounds is because they have just taken someone else's sample or VST output and tweaked it a bit.
That's part of the royalty free agreement for many libraries.

I have Reason v1 installed and up- and running on my iMac G3. I also have 4 and 5 on one of my windows 7 machines. If you are using Redrum, Subtractor, NN19 and same samples, etc. etc. -- It sounds the same as it does in Reason 12.
