Re: What is your top 5 rack extension and why

Not rack extensions but what I believe is core to reason song making to me: VK-2 / Radical Piano - main patch to start a song idea (If I'm not using my Korg Prologue). Radical Piano can be compared to Nord's Piano patches or the Korg Grandstage any day. Octorex - take an old loop or sample and chop ...

Hi Ejectzero,

Thanks for the advice, the combinator was the solution! I'm a little confused as to why the keyboard will switch combinator controls but not individual instrument controls, but at this point it doesn't really matter. Excited to get this up and running!
Cool man! Enjoy it!

Re: Live use questions

Hey Campersand - I use Reason live with a midi keyboard (Novation Launchkey) and I love it! Never had to shop around. I make one combinator for every track - the four knobs on my combinator is more than enough for a song and auto routes to the first four knobs I have available on my keyboard. Most m...

Re: Rewards!!!

Jeez, it's free guys. Use it don't use it. I upgraded to R10 Oct last year ($130). I got a $30 voucher for black friday, now I got $25 (or is that 25 pounds??) in free rewards points. I got a free Europa VST. I also got the drum machine player for free. I am biased to believe that they treat us fair...

Re: Using Novation Launchpad with Reason 8 Advice Required

You may want to look at J74's ISO Controllers, which runs as a max/msp standalone program in between your launchpad and Reason. It will give you a bunch more playing modes. (I've integrated all of his modes and more, plus color palettes to mine for the Pro.) But the codec for the mk2 on Irregular C...

Re: Hello All, Newbie/Sorta Apple question...

I use a 2013 MBP with an i5 and 8gigs ram. With stock devices theres no dsp issues, but some of the beefier RE's will require buffer size increasing. That said - I do run very big projects with the MBP being my only PC. It can do the job nicely, but I do experience other daws being more lightweight.

Re: Gender changer for vocals

I'm with Ahornberg - the Thor Formant filter has worked for me in the past to make vox chops.
KirkMarkarian's advice to use Grain might be even better if u have R10.

Re: Where Is Reason Headed?

Before I took a break from music I used Reason 6.5. Upgraded to R10 in Oct. I for one am amazed by the progress that has been made, especially with audio recording and processing. I love using pitch edit, comp and slice edit modes on the audio. I also way prefer the midi workflow. What I do find clu...

Re: Anyone use Reason for live performance. Live keyboard playing.

Well jlgrimes, your imagination is your boundary. Setting up a split keyboard in the combinator is very straight forward, you just set the receive notes of the specific instrument according to the note range you desire in it's programmer section. You'll find a tutorial on that here somewhere. You ca...

Re: Anyone use Reason for live performance. Live keyboard playing.

I use Reason with a basic midi controller live as keyboardist in a band. Here's some tips: I do not want to display my laptop - my live setup is prepared to allow me to never have to look at the screen. I connect my laptop (macbook) to an audio interface and put it on a separate stand on my left han...

Southgate, would you mind sharing your text used for the remotemap? I'd like to do the same with Europa and my Launchkey but haven't thought of how to configure it yet. Your reference might help to start with it? :)
