Re: Newbie VST Midi question

This might not be part of your issue, but just in case you weren't aware, all of the phrases can be dragged and dropped into the Reason sequencer as MIDI files. That's not the same as using it as a traditional instrument, of course, but I just wanted to put it out there in case you (or anyone else) ...

Re: the fan

I just thought of what could be a funny easter egg. After X number of months from the release date, the fan will start to show dust collecting on the fins! :lol:

Re: Reason 10 To Reason 12

I will add that there is usually a "May Madness" sale (in addition to Black Friday) where you can usually get a perpetual R12 upgrade license for $99 (or less -- sometimes at jrrshop or thomann).

VST3 to VST2 bridge plugins should work -- like Kushview Element or Bluecat Patchwork.

If you own v1, you should have an upgrade coupon in your user area. My upgrade price was $19 USD.

Re: Do I need The Legend?

I was not aware of Synapse Audio offering free VST crossgrades. I have The Legend and Obsession. I emailed them this morning with a screenshot of my owned Synapse Audio REs and within a few hours they sent me serial numbers for the VST versions, no questions asked. Very cool!

Re: Rebirth Emulation

One thing I miss most from ReBirth is all the pre-programmed patterns ready to go with a click of the mouse. It made it great for just diving in and making some noise for a few minutes and made it a very fun experience.

Re: which Mac to buy

I agree that it's best to get as much internal storage as you can reasonably afford, just because it can't be upgraded (internally) later, and it makes working with application-oriented data (such as the rack extensions and regular plugins) so much easier. However, with something like a Mac Studio t...

Re: Reason Studios appears to be silent

Every public move they make is criticized to death in some form or another. That would make me want to share information less frequently. I love Reason, and I am excited about any future updates (even if they don't benefit me directly), but I also understand potential reasons for silence on their pa...

Re: My journey with Reason+

If I just want to watch Return of the Jedi over and over again, maybe I should consider buying the movie rather than subscribing to Disney+ to do that. Doesn't mean Disney+ is a bad deal and doesn't mean buying movies is the wrong choice. I love this analogy -- it's one of the best ways I've seen t...

The built-in sequencer is nice, and it sounds really great with the Bassline Generator player. If you already have ABL3 or Phoscyon it might not be worth the money, but I like it :-)

Re: Arturia V Collection 10 is released

I love Arturia products and got VC9 on sale about a year ago. I was excited about their new 303 synth released a few months ago and bought it separately. Now I'm glad I did because that's the only new instrument in VC10 that I am interested in, and now I can relieve my g.a.s. until VC11! :lol:

Re: When & where to look for the best deals?

Regarding Arturia deals -- sometimes you can get either a free synth or lower-cost one on sale, register it to your account, and then when they have larger sales like Black Friday (where they typically offer 50% off), you can sometimes get even bigger discounts. A couple years ago I got Analog Lab L...
