Re: Reason 8.3 Kong Question

this is true. but you can use the redrum to trigger the kong. that way you can get out the benefits of kong and have the redrum trigger it. so you can have your sounds layered. pow. powerful combination Yeah, I tried it when Kong came into Reason.

Re: Reason 8.3 Kong Question

No problem, friend. Glad it helped. Well, that is not an easy question to answer. It's very subjective. I prefer Kong and haven't used Redrum since Kong came. Advantage of Redrum is that it has a step sequencer but I find it fiddly to work with. Too many unnecessary steps. I prefer to record drums ...

it seems like they will only respond if you make a public complaint on their facebook page as naturally it doesnt look good to potential customers when users are casting a negative light on their product in public, its a shame because nobody really wants to air their dirty laundry in public that wa...

The pads are out of orther because it uses a hardcoded cc messaging system (or something of the sorts) what I think is terrible but it is what it is I guess. Other thing you should do if you can't get the firmware update to work is calling akai's support and ask them to have it short it out for you...
