VST3 has to be the priority, more and more stuff is being released VST3 only, take for example Wavestate and Opsix native by Korg today...Reason is so slow at getting the obviously essential stuff done.
Stop making stupid weekly soundpacks and get the DAW up to 2020 levels (let alone 2022!)

Re: Korg Wavestate and Opsix for now native plug in for Win/Mac
They are amazing- I owned the hardware Wavestate but sold it as I needed space and it was a bugger to edit on hardware...it is so much better as software if you are just in the studio/ITB and sounds identical. I also got the OPSIX as I have been looking at that with gearlust- $150 each currently...V...

Re: R+ sale again already?
With so many 50% off sales people will obviously only subscribe for $99 a year...they should just lower the price perminaneltly, if that doesn't do it they don't have a subscription business (better to no early!) The subscription is decent value for people with no Reason....but for ,many of us with ...

Re: Reasonstudios Black Friday Week
This is the 2nd or even 3rd time they have offered a 'years' licence for $99...if they keep doing it every year then effectively a years licence does cost $99 and you would be foolish to pay any more now you know that's the pattern... Reason+ permanently costs 99USD and Runs from November to November!

Yup, be a few Octotrack users looking at this now....streaming was the last reason to use an OT really.

Re: How would you rate the R12 upgrade? (Upgraders and R+ subscribers only)
It is more of a 'catch up' upgrade (as a DAW without scaling/zooming in 2021 is just unacceptable) than a feature/improvement upgrade. I think a lot of companies would have made HD and Combinor2 a free 11.5 upgrade (and maybe sold Mimic) but it is what it is and no one has to upgrade...if they keep ...

You can also buy the years subscription on line from 3rd party shops in $.....comes out at about £120 a year rather than £200 for exactly the same product/service.

Re: Reason 12 upgrade deal from external website (UK)
PS- I am not sure RS are paying VAT to the UK Government anyway (I don't think you cant do it over £135 ?) so how/why are they charging this price in £? Buying in USD is the only thing that makes sense. When I asked RS they would not confirm UK VAT was included in the price...so I am just assuming t...

I have 2 free products now and nothing left to buy! (I had MAX) I wonder how IK will survive after this unless they have a lot of new products ready to launch. Sure, they have a hit of sales now, but they will have a hell of a dry patch after this as everyone who wanted their products will already o...

I have both- the Grid is more accessible, but MAX devices are far better than you can currently make in the Grid (which is also audio only) and there are 1000's of them freely available on sites like https://maxforlive.com/ Bitwig doesn't have a big users base or a lot of support, a bit more 'boutiq...

Re: Reason 12 TOMORROW!!!!!!!! Excitement level readings??????
Funny, I just find Reaper an ugly cluttered mess with dreadful workflow as they just threw the kitchen sink at it…. Just setting it up felt like I had programmed the DAW myself….it feels and updates like open source software, some people love that stuff I guess, not for me.

I wish it was 20 dollars, that would be £14. In the UK we are being charged £20, and no, that has nothing to do with TAX (AFAIK they are not set up to collect UK tax) and even if it did include tax it should be £17 and we should be able to get a tax receipt (I am VAT registered so don’t pay VAT) It ...

Re: tools or toys?
It is strange, but although I have multiple DAWS and like 'fiddling' with software, I am far more drawn to hardware synths and sequencing on AKAI Live, Circuit and a 'Hermod' in my Eurorack. Generally they have lest features than even the most basic DAW, but I 'enjoy' using them and I don't really '...

Interesting as it was used twice in the Mimic demo video made by Reason yesterday (great publicity for Pump) I looked for it on the shop and couldn't find it!
