Shut the fuck up and use the software. It's great.

Re: Reason Financials 2021

Ok, I contributed a bit to some FUD about Reason and I feel a little bad about that. I am about to dive into a project using the Reason DAW and I am super pumped about it as it is a really great song that I was asked to help produce. Will probably use the new Kuassa amp sim on it. I'm sure everythin...

I think NI (or rather the new merger of izotope/NI/PA) or Behringer/MusicTribe could use a good DAW in their portfolio.
How about https://inmusicbrands.com?

Sometimes sarcasm doesn't translate well into a forum post. I am not sure if people are being serious or sarcastic.

Re: Professional Reason Songs

The move to subscriptions distracted them from the core product(s). I also think the name change was a mistake.

Re: Reason 12.2.6 Release Notes

I have been using 12 about since release. To me it has been great. Seeing the devices in hi-rez still makes me giggle a little the odd time. It works well on my Intel Macs.

Re: “The Truth about Reason 12” new YouTube video from Kickback Couture

I just switched back to Reason 12 from Logic after using Logic for a few years. Reason is so much easier to use, it's a relief. My head hurt when I tried to do simple things in Logic. I am actually enjoying Reason's sequencer. As well, the high-res graphics are amazing. I guess I am one of the lucky...

Re: Do you prefer REs or VSTs?

I don't own any VSTs (even free ones). I find my life is simple if I just use REs. I like the shop. I like how I can re-sync them, etc. I can use PX7 forever even though it is discontinued. This is amazing. They were all hi-dpi compatible. This is amazing. RE is a really great technology. Since Reas...

Re: Reason 12 has arrived

Yes, that's one of the charms of Reason. I've referred to the manual a few times and I must say, it is very well-written, but I rarely need to refer to it. +1 It's so bizarre that Reason has a GREAT manual, probably one of the best I've ever seen. And yet, it's one of those apps where you rarely ne...

Re: Add sends to Mix Device

Yes, I switched back to using Reason DAW as opposed to RRP for a fun experiment and I found with my tiny laptop screen, it was a pita to switch to the mixer just to increase the send to the reverb. If all (or most common) channel activities could be done in the rack that would be great. We reasoners...

Add sends to Mix Device

Ideally put all of the mixer channel strip onto the rack Mix device (at least the first 2 or 3 sends would be nice). You could expand the device to include all of it. It would save switching to the mixer for a lot of stuff.

It reminds me that well-designed software doesn't need a manual to figure out. In the 20 years that I’ve been using Reason, I’ve never read the manual, and rar...

Re: CPU usage and R12 crashs

Now that I've used it a bit, the fan does come on the odd time in the RRP but nowhere near to the extent of when using RDAW.

Re: CPU usage and R12 crashs

I have a 2018 MacBook Air (yeah not the most powerful computer). Reason DAW has the fan on constantly. RRP in Logic is quiet as a mouse (or trackpad in my case badam tish). Weird... In RDAW I had a single combinator with a MIDI out device and the fan was on.

Maybe it's a limitation of Logic? I seem to recall RS mentioning something in the support ticket I opened about that but I've forgotten the details... It would be interesting to try this in another DAW.
