Re: So what's your ideal pricing?

A number that reflects the quality of the product relative to the competition.

So around 50€ to upgrade.

Re: Hi-Res - slightly disappointed

It's an unfinished product ... an early beta version in my eyes. Performance is down, the RRP loads slower, the loading time of the devices/REs is slower (esp. combinators). Everything looks terrible, blurred exept the rack (but that takes so much time). Not good ... after giving it some days, I de...

Re: The Combinator v2 Thread

I would hope they leverage the fact that it's a closed environment so that if you macro a stepped control it'll give you a stepped knob and show the actual values. And for said knobs to be colour coded and with different knob types that correspond to different functions (fx, tone generation, filter ...

Re: Good Reasonable Priced Limiter...

Indeed it isn't. Barricade 4 and Limiter 6 GE, fidelity wise, are some of the best. Just recently bought the latter and will probably buy Barricade at some point. Barricade is somewhat less flexible, but the UX is great like all other TB plugins. Might also be worth mentioning that IKM Stealth Limi...

Re: Good Reasonable Priced Limiter...

The question is: What do you expect? (or in other words: what does mean "upgrade" to you?) Do you want a simple brickwall limiter for loudness at mastering stage? Then this one is always a good recommendation: https://www.kvraudio.com/product/loudmax-by-thomas-mundt It also has true peak feature. I...

Re: It's almost 4/27 are you going to try R+?

Not doing anything until I see what is slated for Reason 12. If it is as lackluster as previous updates then I'm done with Reason (edit: At least definitively. I've already stopped using it as a DAW and I'm still on R10,so I don't have the RRP).

Re: could Reason+ mean more frequent full version releases?

Only if they use the money to employ enough new coders. What percentage of DSP coders currently looking for work there are fluent in Swedish? I'm sticking with the theory that requiring Swedish speakers means they have a smaller pool of talent to draw from, which means it is more difficult for them...

I mean, the pitchforks and overreactions are (of course) ridiculous, but the flip side is that their last couple of announcements/rollouts have been terrible, and frankly, it’s on RS for how confused and concerned people are. Not when it comes to the Suite "issue", though. I still cannot see what m...

To all those asking what happens when you cancel ... it’s a subscription service like any other, you stop the subscription and you lose access to the content. It can’t be simpler. If you had a license before the subscription, why would that now disappear? Sorry but this thread is just getting painf...

Re: best headphones?

I find open-backed more pleasing to listen to, but you'll record the headphones if you record vocals with open-backed (not a problem with louder instruments further from your head, guitar amps etc, but you'll also hear the live instrument AND the headphone mix, which is probably not ideal. Or might...

I have stopped sending them bug reports. Not worth my time… And IF they fix it you don't know cause you normally never hear back.

Well, do the math. Around the corner comment meant not before summer, but rather in August/September/October/November. More likely Oct/Nov. So in that sense, it means around 6+ months time. If that is a time span that one really get good use of the upgrade and in case of Suite, the REs, then it wil...
