Re: Grain Discussion Thread

Is anyone familiar with Native instruments Form? or have it and used it. Its hard to not see the similarities, and wonder, especially being a reactor device any developer can open the edit function and see exactly how its made. So many of the functions seem identical, they are just laid out differen...

Re: Making screen capture Recordings in Reason

For some training I did on mastering audio for broadcast television, I used OBS software and then just used the built in stereo mix setup in windows. It took a little fiddling to get the audio were I wanted it, but for the most part it was simple and the final product turned out really good. Here's ...

Constructive-ish critisim

It seems that the "New Reason Talk" has become very stale. Its been nearly a month since we've had anything new and that was for a RE announcement. Reason just received another point update that fixed some bugs why is that not mentioned. If the site is gonna have no heartbeat then it may be better f...

Re: Will Ryzen make AMD great again?

My guess is no, Intel will just announce some new tech that they have been sitting on for 10 years that will blow AMD back to the stone age. Sadly no one can really compete with Intel so they don't have to inovate much, they can do minor incremental updates and charge a fortune.

Re: Mixing, Exporting, Levels, Sigh.

This software is a standard and simple way of getting your mix loud. https://www.izotope.com/en/products/master-and-deliver/ozone.html There are also ways to do this in reason using their built in mastering tools, but in my opinion the results are lacking and take more time and effort to make sound ...

Re: But is it "music?"

If im hearing you correctly your sound isnt found in pre-meditated chord structures or strum patterns. Your is an organic tweeking of dials and knobs, that allows you to discovery the sound your seeking. Is it music? I think you would first need to ask yourself the question. Am I a Musician? Or am I...

Re: Random thought on Props

I think if they included their A-List series (Drummers and Guitarist) into the program it self and did a big promo video on them, I believe more people would actually buy Reason as it would immediately provide new tools for bedroom producers and one man bands. I think they would end up selling more...

I had the same error with another program, re-installing didn't work. I ended up making a full backup and doing a fresh install on a clean drive. That's usually the best way to handle a new OS . The one time I broke the rule it bit me. Needless to say fresh installs always make the system purr like ...
