Yeah. So far it’s always been that when a new version is coming they say buy the latest version and get the newest version when it’s released. Thing is we don’t even know when/ if there’ll be a 13.
If you’re asking then you don’t want it.
I think you're right; although VST3 support would be nice, those Robotic Bean VST3 only instruments look very cool...
The new Combinator? The browser is faster and we can now filter by plugin type. And aside from Apple Silicon, there have been several performance improvements. Lots of bug fixes and improvements. There have been 17 updates since the initial release. https://www.reasonstudios.com/en/reason ... ease-notes Another one being tested now.
That's because they introduced shitloads of bugs with the first version of 12

That would be solving a problem I don't have. I routinely run 3 or 4 instances of RRP and one instance of FL Studio as plugins in Studio One along with a bunch of VSTs and audio tracks. On my current PC, which is five years old now, I have never run out of horsepower or memory in any project with any DAW. Bandwidth is just not the problem it used to be unless you go crazy. It amuses me that on the FL Studio forum there is a recurring theme of people complaining that they make EDM and can't cope with the 100 track limit!madmacman wrote: ↑01 Jun 2023Another aspect which might be unsexy, but seems to be a nice "under the hood" improvement in R12:
If I remember correctly, the RRPs in R11 were monolithic and clumsy. On a Mac ~350MB each (Instrument and FX). With R12 the developers seem to have modularised the code to a great extent. Meaning: Plugins are now ~86MB (and even less to my memory before AppleSilicon support). That's great
So don't underestimate optimisation and efficiency.
12? You mean Reason 12? Yeah, my Balance runs great. Windows 10.OldGoat wrote: ↑01 Jun 2023Greetings Propellerheads!
I mean to have heard that 12 doesn't run well on old computers that previously ran 10 without problems, can anyone comment on this?
I can't find any details in the system requirements. (I have an old quad core CPU in my Dell XPS)

Also any experience with Balance?
Generously, support for this interface has been discontinued.
However, Balance runs well under Win 10 with its generic USB audio driver. Has anyone gotten it to work under 12?
Thank you!
3rd generation i7 - reason 12 great performance, in some of my tracks it Works better than order versions [it plays my song till the end without computer too slow warning and tool much cracking sounds]
Reason 12 runs great. Sure, it started off pretty rocky, was released too soon, bla bla bla. But it's pretty amazing software at this point. Definitely worth $67. Wow. And from the sounds of it, R13 isn't even around the corner at this point, so this upgrade will keep someone in the most recent version for quite a while into the future.

It's OK it looks like it mainly affects Reason 1-11's offline use, we can log in as usual but if you want to set up offline use then there are issues as they no longer will support it. This is kind of what Microsoft does with windows, but they really force you to upgrade.
Not when the upgrade is reduced over 60%. $199 upgrade is pricey compared to other developers.
Hey Grumbleweed nice to see you are still around.Grumbleweed wrote: ↑02 Jun 2023I didn't think it would happen (I thought I'd moved on) but I jumped at the bargainous upgrade to Reason 12. Always had a soft spot for my first love but I was never going to drop £199 on it!
Had some fun knocking up a quick track but I'm not the Reason demon I once was - I have the basics still, but routing audio as I want it was a bit flaky.
The sequencer hasn't exactly flourished over the years but that's Reason I guess
Grum.
