Thanks for your comments. I added to my few synths. In worst case it is a patch lib with 1200 patches for 12 bucks.
Exactly.
The patches are really good. Complementary to the other FM synths I have.

Re: If you could only use ONE synth for a whole year, which one would it be?

Roland System-8. Because it sounds fantastic, it's super fun to program, it has a deep native S8 engine and fantastic Jupiter and Juno emulations. (The JX3P engine I'm not sold on). Love this synth. If I was able to choose one of each, it would be: hardware: System-8 Native-Reason: Europa - doesn't ...

Re: How do you get rid of Usb noise??

Korg Arp Odyssey, Moog Sirin and Behringer Model D have no USB noise - they work perfectly and quietly. All the Roland Boutiques, System 8, TR-08 have terrible USB noise. The solution for me has been use USB for power only (via apple USB charger etc), analog audio thru mixer and DIN MIDI through MID...

Re: Despite all my FUD, I'm happy as a pig in the MUD [R12=OK]

I'm really happy with R12 too now I've upgraded (thanks for the sale Props, I mean ReasonStudios!) I like the fast browser search, and I like the hi-res UI. I'm running a 1440p monitor, and zoom at 120% or 140% is a big improvement for me. As I'm running RRP inside Reaper, I am enjoying the benefit ...

Re: What scale is this?

Oh - Harmonic minor - got a hit on some internet searches, and explained the variation. Apparently to make it 'smoother' and also (somehow) easier to sing!

Thanks everyone. Consider myself more informed!!

Re: What scale is this?

The second part (from :54 in the video), I thought was D minor, but the chord progression is Dm - Bb - Gm - A. I thought Dminor scale had A minor as the v chord but this is a major. A or A7 is used way more often than Am. It is the most used three chord sequence of the vast majority of most trivial...

Does anyone know if you can run R11 and R12 on the same (windows 10) PC? I'm now (finally) interested in upgrading but I collaborate with some folks who may not be. Thanks!

Finally pushed the button, and upgraded! First impressions good, I really like the updated search.

Less impressed with the HiRes graphics. It seems some graphics scale up very nicely and some (especially text) remain chunky and a bit fuzzy when zoomed in.

Gooey :) First there was CUI (Character user interface aka green screen), then GUI, then BUI (Browser User Interface) :D Really they're all forms of UI and you could argue they're all graphical!

Re: Do you think the nowday's Reason is too CPU-heavy?

Yes, I think there isn't enough consideration for CPU. 1. Reason 11 is much heavier on CPU compared to Reaper. I do not have any comparison though to other DAWs. 2. Render in Place is excellent in Reason, but it's not a proper track freeze. 3. You can't turn off Rack Extensions so they consume no CP...
