This looks like some badly set windows Clear Type setting to me.

Its not Clear Type, already checked, but thanks for the suggestion.

Windows scaling is 100%, as is the Application Zoom scaling. Just to restate, nothing else is affected, only Reason 12. Its even noticeable when opening the application;

lol unsure what happened there, screenshot was correct size when I uploaded it. Its not scaling in Windows 11, nothing else has the issue, including Reason 10. The fonts are appearing anti-aliased. Uploaded the 10 and 12 screenshots. I'm assuming its not OS, Driver, GFX related as no other applicati...

Just installed 12, upgraded from 10, and the first thing I'm seeing is blurry fonts everywhere. I remember seeing something about this back when 12 was first released, but assumed it was fixed. Fonts are god awful, blurry. Only setting I see is the Application Zoom, and none of the variations do any...

Any guidance would be welcome

Hi all,

Probably a silly question, but aside from the standard recording through an audio track, any tips for recording the step sequencer on the XD in time with the song. For example pressing play in Reason with record on, would start the Korg sequencer in time?
Hope thats making sense...

Thanks.

Sorry to bump. Was aiming at getting everything ordered prior to this weekend. Could somebody confirm on the M-Audio option for me pretty please?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for confirming. Having spoken to Focusrite (I have a Solo), and the music store, the Minilogue XD has stereo outputs, so the Solo will only output to mono due to its one input, could I use something like the M-Audio M-Track Duo as the dedicated synth in\out? I can get one for £50, which seems...

Hi all,

About to get this as my first 'synth'. Just wanted to ask if the XD can be used as a controller for other VST. So when not using it as the midi-in, switching to say a Spire instrument, can the XD be the controller?
Probably a dumb question....

Thank you I really appreciate it, the mix sounded much like I had in my head. I've been tinkering with the song this week and will spend some time on the mastering side, which is not my forte, but I'm always up for improving. What were your thoughts on the mastering I did to your song? I think the ...

those headphones tend to emphasize the bass a lot, which may lead one to add not enough of it - and low end is really what this track is missing. listen to what selig said, he nailed it. Would you recommend investing in something like Sony MDR-7506? stillifegaijin post made me research studio cans ...

I hear basically an unmastered mix, that's all. Specifically, I hear a lower than typical overall loudness combined with not enough energy in the bottom few octaves (for this genre, and IMO). The kick is plenty "present", with a nice "click" attack and good mid-range thump. It's just a bit top heav...

hyper-x do mixing headphones? i thought they only did gaming.

Yes they are gaming headphones, but I also use Audio Technica ATH-M50. Not sure if I need something specific for mixing in Reason that will improve\enhance mixing?

I have to say I agree with nearly everyone else. This mix sounds pretty damn good. If anything, the kick is a bit too loud and aggressive & clicky for me. It's certainly not "distant" as you describe it. I wonder what your monitoring situation is like that you are hearing it as distant. Currently u...

Thank you for all the replies. I think I had just got frustrated with the sound not how I wanted it to be in my head, and eventually (version 5) had drifted away from the original, without all the added 'fixes' I had tried to implement. I will revisit it again with a fresh view and see what I can tu...

https://soundcloud.com/user-214956337/look-behind-1?si=494b12d645ea42a480e9234bddbc479f At my wits end. Been using Reason for many years, have watched gazillions of tutorials on mixing, but still, my mix sounds like shite. Everything sounds in the wrong place, kick is distance, synths are overpoweri...

Thanks deeplink.

Hello, I noticed today something that I've seen before. When deleting a specific part of a track when arranging, there's a 'hidden' duplicate underneath. I can only assume this happened whilst copying\pasting, but unless I select each track or sequence of bars, I've no way of knowing there are effec...

It's a jumbled mess, design needs a totally new approach. Once you have 30,40 plus devices, scrolling around becomes a chore, especially if you're working with effects etc. I'm no Reason pro, but find myself looking more and more at Ableton, which seems to have a much more chilled and logical layout...

So its okay to put Instruments in the send effects section? thats the only way I can see to 'Combine' them.

Sorry this is probably a really dumb question, but in previous versions, I used to be able to create one device (Combinator) and manage all my devices with one click, now with Mix tracks (Reason 10), I have to click twice, first to minimize the Mix track, second to minimize the actual instruments. i...

Thanks for this, been looking for some tuts.
One thing I've noticed using the Alligator is I seem to get a lot of clicks and pops, which cannot be removed. Any ideas?

Thanks.
