Some of us probably shouldn't be getting to excited because we don't even know what the minimum requirements are to even update to Reason 13 are going to be. I'm still running 10.15.7 Catalina on a 2012 Macbook Pro which I don't intend on upgrading anytime soon. So just think about that before some...

Music Radar also has a pretty extension collection:

Really nice track. Sounds melancholy to me, in a good way, very moody. Thanks! Absolutely the mood I was going for, for the start at least, but then shifts to a more euphoric ending as we peacefully resign to our fate. :) Thinking of it as a fictional album ender. Going to try and get some more tra...

OK. But if you try and make a living with anything, it is wise to use the tools that fit the job, instead of picking something (although nice and all) that doesn't fit the job, but might somewhere in the (unsure) future. It means you won't be making a living today. There is an obvious reason why ma...

How are you liking the mk3? I’m still on the mk1 which has been great, but the plastic is starting to degrade on the wheels.

Wow, thanks guys, that means a lot!

I think I get it, some sort of block rearrangement mode? Great idea!

I’ve also spent time switching between blocks trying to get the parts sorted.

Yep, you clearly didn't get the point :puf_bigsmile: Both hardware and software are bought by people to actually use when you buy them, with the functionality that is CURRENTLY there. If you buy software for functionality that is not there, but might surface in the future, OR NOT, you are wasting y...

I get more music done on Reason with all it's quirks/limitations than any other DAW. And for me it is much more fun and inspiring than Bitwig, but if you like it that's all that matters.
This thread is about Reason 13 though

Where's that "like" button?! Talk about missing features!!!

Happy to see that the Polytone is properly attached to the rack, but I'm a bit worried about secure it is....

Many forget what reason looked like in version 10.[...] slow and unstable.

Not my memory of R1 at all, it was a revelation and the first real "virtual studio technology" implementation - in the truest sense of those words.

Still no markers, editable shortcuts and folders?

Markers seems like very low hanging fruit, not sure why they've not been added?

Guys… guys… it’s a DAW focused upgrade. Nothing specific to RRP or R+ :P I’m looking forward to the edit window now being its own thing with the tool window functionality built in. Much smoother workflow that what it is now. And finally the finished browser with tags. I’ve gotten spoiled by Arturia...

Love the dark bass intro haha didn't expect some majestic piano and melodies to come in. Great vibe all around and mixed well listening on my monitors.

Thanks, Tom!

Finally got around to finishing an original track, after practicing on a number of covers. About time I took some licks after commenting on a number of other folks efforts. I have attempted to master it to get it up to a decent volume, but I've not worried about brick wall limiting as I want to reta...

I think the pad goes on way too long from the start. As soon as the beat starts the pad should drop out for a bit and then it comes back as a rhythmic element as you have it. My ears got tired of it. When it returns later on, it still outstays its welcome.

I liked it. Even though there was no strong melody I could discern, the piece certainly communicates a mood and there’s lots of nice variation. Congrats on finishing it!

Very nice, I can easily imagine it showing up in one of Hana's mixes: https://www.youtube.com/@HANAtruly

The truth is that I have been making musical songs for 30 years... I humbly believe that you have not fully understood the musical philosophy of this track. However, you are right that the theme can give more of itself, and before sending it to production I am working on an extended version that wi...

To my ears the track seems kind of “unglued” meaning that it seemed like a bunch of independent tracks playing along at the same tempo? And there was no strong chorus to return to after the bridge. The track kept chugging along until the end when it unceremoniously ends. There’s a cool car revving s...

Great authentic sounds, but the arrangement could use some work. The melody isn’t very hooky. Kraftwerk had such a great ability to come up with a simple yet distinctive melody, I’m guessing this might have been your first stab at the melody ? If so, then perhaps try humming along to the backing tra...

Thanks for these pointers.

@mimidancer. Thanks, but I’m overflowing with samples

@arpeg: cool, I’ll check those out.

@jfrichards: that looks interesting. I’ve been exploring beatmap to try and get some interesting kick, snare, hi-hat combos. I’ll try your suggestions out.

Really enjoying this:

Yeah, so it’s really not adding anything new sadly. Surprised that this has not been created.

There’s probably something I can use in Vintage Vault.
