Re: BIG SALE in the PH store

I can use 4 different U.S cards. Are you sure it's a Prop shop issue? No, it's my card...so it's my issue with my banks security policy. But I don't want to change and I don't want to HAVE TO open a paypal account or something else. Which is why I'm starting to use other products more and more that...

Re: BIG SALE in the PH store

Looks like Sweetwater doesn't follow the sale. The sale is only through the shop, which stinks for me since I can't order anything through the shop with my US card. I really wish PH would have a US site for people like me. Or make a deal with a place like sweetwater to allow EVERYTHING PH has to off...

Re: BIG SALE in the PH store

A year ago I would have been all over this sale. But I've decided to stop investing in PH/Reason for the time being. I absolutely love Reason and what it comes with and see myself always using it. But I feel I'm getting more for my money with other companies and their products at the moment. I'm loo...

Re: New forum and development

Whew, my heart skipped a beat when I couldn't log on and didn't know what was happening.

I still have SO many complaints about Reason that I need to tell everyone about. (<--sarcasm)

Glad to see the forum rocking again.

Hey, how about making an album of unfinished projects? Everyone has shitloads of smaller saves that propably never end up to be finished. How about making an album out of these?

I only wish I had more free time to spend with Reason. With my career and age of 46, it's extremely limited. But I sure do love it,even with it's pimples.

What madness is happening over at props??

I get emails from MANY companies and they are ALWAYS having sales.

ALWAYS.

The market is flooded with products and competition is fierce. Take advantage of it if you can.

No matter what, I won't buy S1-3 until after the first or second update. And by that time Reason 9 may be out. Who knows? I'm not happy with Studio's CPU usage.

I will continue with Reason and Reaper for now.

I'll get it after I get a new beefy computer. I love and will continue with Reason, but I'm not going down the RE street.

Reason 9 better be totally mind blowing. For PH's sake.

Reason Essentials now only $49!!! :-)

If Essentials was that price a year ago, I would have bought it. BUT, by now I would own the full version anyway. Still, it's a good move. It should be advertised more.

Anyone using Reason on a touchscreen laptop?

Fortunately, I own the HP Slate 21 Pro, which doubles as a 21 inch HDMI touchscreen monitor and a 21 inch Android tablet(running Kit Kat)! With a monitor this size, the touchscreen features are particularly useful, especially if you are playing bass or guitar. There is a trade off: a USB uplink fro...

Anyone using Reason on a touchscreen laptop?

At some point Reason will need to be updated to be more accommodating to touchscreens/large monitors. Actually all DAWS need to be. Powerful tablets are only going to be more prevalent. And, IMO, other companies are already ahead of PH with this. I had been planning on a powerful desktop this year, ...

Board issue:

On my android Samsung tablet when I open a thread, it doesn't always start at the top or first post but will jump down a few posts. So I have to scroll up to the beginning. There's other little things to but nothing show stopping. I've gotten used to it now. LOL.

I downloaded it to my work computer and printed out all the sections that I wanted on their printers. (Shh, don't tell them about it.

If Props introduced a subscription plan for Reason................

I like the sonar method and seriously consider it for the plugs and extras, which Reaper and Saw Studio would "see" and make available. Plus with this way one can demo software for more than 30 days. And I can handle a monthly payment for a year better than saving up to pay one large chunk. The bigg...

Mixing

I spend half my time mixing with my eyes closed. I just listen and ask, "what am I hearing and does it sound good?" This is a lot easier with a physical board where I can have my hands on a knob and turn it with my eyes closed. I do this when mixing live music all the time. Otherwise I'm using the s...

Reason and Reaper. Although I haven't used Reaper since last year. The more I use Reason, the less I use anything else. I have Studio One Artist but don't use it anymore. I'm eager to see version 3. I like the program, but Reason gets my time. I have EZ Drummer 2, but again, Reason has bumped it out...

So when do you expect version 9?

I will wait to see if PH offers a bunch of RE's to new Reason users like they did with R8. I would have been better off just buying R8 new instead of upgrading. I got a little angry when I saw that R8 offer to new users, although I understand the uh, Reason behind it. It sure would have been nice th...

8.2 - best place to put refills? (+where to find soundbanks)

I have a folder on my desktop called "Refills". Another folder called "Reason Songs" which is all the songs I've recorded. And I put the Soundbanks into it's own folder as well (although I have the Reason DVD too).

Plus I have two backups of everything in case the computer crashes.

My Number One Rule is to NEVER UPDATE WHILE WORKING ON A PROJECT. In other words, if you are in the middle of recording songs for your next CD or you have a not finished song, then DO NOT UPDATE until all is finished. I did the update because I'm not in the middle of any projects right now. And I ha...
