Re: AIr Xpand2 FREE...limited time

I have been using XPAND for a long time and it has never ever crashed on me - in Logic or ProTools.

The sounds and presets in XPAND2 are better than Reason's factory sounds that's for sure!

I wish the mods were less agressive.

The other topic here says how someone wishes they would mod more and that wasn't deleted. My topic is no different, so it also shouldn't be deleted. I am not talking about anyone specifically or any specific event. Just general.

Thank You.

Re: AIr Xpand2 FREE...limited time

We have been using XPand in Pro Tools for the longest time (it used to be Pro Tools only), and when they finally released it as an audio unit, all of us here bought it for $49.99!!!! That is how good we think it is. Plus a lot of Pro Tools people secretly use it to fill out their arrangements. I kno...

Re: If you have Logic X, you should NOT Upgrade to Reason 10

I am at airport that's why i am active on forms today lol. Tritone - not "everything else" lol, just Logic's factory sounds and synths. : ) I use Reason on airplanes and on the bus. At home and in the studio for serious work I use Logic. Like I mentioned before early in this thread - I don't want yo...

Re: If you have Logic X, you should NOT Upgrade to Reason 10

Well Tritone, I think you misunderstood what I was saying. The synthesis methods in the new synths are different, so you will have new sounds. What I meant is the actual sound quality that comes out of the speakers. Maybe I do not know what to call it...but let's take Omnisphere for example. Listen ...

Gorgon, do you use Logic? If not then goodbye. Interesting how if you say anything negative about Reason here it is called trolling!!!

What I will do though is tell you the truth because I am also do not take sides. Anyway, this post is for Logic X users who are thinking about updating to R10. To...

Re: If you have Logic X, you should NOT Upgrade to Reason 10

Alchemy 2 is the synth they gave us for free in one of their many free function and content enhancing updates.

I love Reason so far, but I get Reason 10 for "free" and I am still upset there's nothing else but average sounding synths and samples in the update argh!!!!!

If you have Logic X, you should NOT Upgrade to Reason 10

A public service announcement to my Logic people (plus a Reason tip for non-Logic users). Alchemy 2 blows away Grain and Europa. Please try Reason 10 beta and see what I mean. And I specifically mean the sound. Grain and Europa sound similar to Propellerheads other synths. Yes it is different synthe...

Re: Rack Exstensions are more popular since VST support

“Rack Extension instruments and effects are more popular with you musicians than they ever have been, even after we introduced VST support.” So I’m guessing VST brought in a ton of first time users to the eco system. His word choice is very curious. It could also mean more people have simply tried ...

I have no motive for my "complaints". I do not want to make you believe anything because obviously I can't. At the very least this can be my very long feature suggestion for the Propellerheads. So Propellerheads, it is very nice that you give us the 3 primary colors from which we can then make more ...

Re: Reason n00b with questions

And that is a fair critique, Enoch. But you see, with Logic's sounds, I take full, rich, shiny, sounds and make them fit into songs by stripping them down. In Reason I have to take dull, lifeless, cheap sounds, and try to make them big and luxurious. Again, I am talking about the factory sounds only...

Re: Reason n00b with questions

Thank you Enochlight for the helpful comments. I showed people here Reason's synths and told them how they are 10-17 years old, and they told me some key Logic synths we use are the same age!!! (ESE, ESM, ESP). I think maybe Propellerhead are maybe not that skilled at creating synths? Or maybe they ...

Yes, Normen, Logic also has stacks, which I rarely use because I don't like pre-patched instruments because I always end up re-equing them and taking effects out, so I do not deal with it. Also the kind that have an arpeggiator and a drum machine and is basically one whole song - yes I do not want t...
