Musikmesse Frankfurt 2015

So far the only thing I've seen from musikmesse that I'm interested in is the Orange Bax Bangeetar pedal, seems neat!

Remember 'Dave' from Boyinaband?

I wish he still did Reason videos, but I know now that he has a following it makes sense to do more vlog type videos because the turn around is much quicker and it's an easy way to generate that ad revenue. I think this particular rap is okay. Anyone who can make money from music is a winner in my b...

Does anyone think you spend to much time in your (music hobby) studio/home studio?

I think I've been going the other direction lately. I've been spending less time making music and more time with friends/coworkers or just wandering around the city. In return I've felt that when I do sit down to do music the time I spend doing it is more fruitful and fulfilling. I was getting to th...

Slate Digital FG-X mastering processor

I agree on the Slate stuff being awesome. The subscription model has caught a ton of flak but I think people will come around, it's a great deal. What if Props offered a sub model for REs? That could get Reason back to having the ability for people to collaborate without discrepancies between plugin...

SA16-Chorus in the shop

I think it looks okay (aside from the crooked name which will drive me crazy). And it sounds pretty good so far so I think the price is probably right!

I have not read any reviews on figure but I love it! It gets my musical mojo flowing sometimes and it's fun not being able to sit their and quantize everything to perfection.

Everything NAMM 2015

I don't even know what to make of that Teenage Engineering pocket synth but I like their creativity as always! At least it's a cheaper offering of something.  Much cheaper.  Could be a fun little toy.  I am a fan of the Korg Monotrons and this is right up that alley and price range.  Synthtopia rep...

So is this indicative of the quality of what will be on Discover?

I was thinking about the discover situation at work today and I thought "how long until someone just posts a bunch of gibberish for a laugh". This is moving in that direction but at least it has some notes haha.

Discover?

My music is sacred to me and I don't waste my time on a song I'm not gonna finish so the idea of popping out a riff or hook and giving away my baby for the world to have their way with it makes me feel violated just thinking about it LOL. But that's just me personally and I'm not against whoever wa...

Arturia Audiofuse Interface

Lots of good features for sure (I always wondered why it seems two-channel interfaces have direct-monitoring when many multichannel interfaces do not). Price seems a little steep though. Time will tell I suppose.

I feel like I am in the target demographic but it all just seems like a novelty to me. Assuming there is some way of listening to changes made to a file I wouldn't be opposed to putting up some Figure tracks for someone to jam over but then what? Are they hoping people will download Figure and/or Ta...

I always thought the video for Record was well done. Love the alligator video as well. In general their videos are always fun and well produced, thanks for assembling them in one place!

Windows 10

My desktop is on 7 and my laptop on 8 so I guess I'll jump at the free upgrade but I'd be lying if I said I was not a bit hesitant at the proposition. I guess it's an excuse to back up and reformat.

Anyone just use a laptop for Reason?

For like four years I was doing everything on a laptop. Looking back I don't know how I did it, I wasn't even using hotkeys to toggle between the rack/sequencer! Now I am on a desktop 90% of the time. I only use a laptop if I am travelling somewhere like to record a member of my band at their own sp...

No More Downvoting Allowed?!

We can always express our dislike for something by abstaining from liking it I guess. I like the logic though, if you're going to be negative then you should explain so at least there can be a meaningful discussion instead of just passive aggression.

2015 Wish List - Studio Toys

I'm hoping to rustle up the funds for an Focusrite ISA 430 to improve on vocal recordings. Otherwise I'm pretty content with the hardware I've built up so far (or at least I am tricking myself into thinking that for the sake of my wallet). http://lghttp.17114.nexcesscdn.net/808784/vking/media/catalo...

EditorKeys Reason PC Keyboard give away!

Oh man I was looking at getting one of those not too long ago (still on v7) but opted for the cheaper route of shortcut stickers on my current keyboard. Needless to say the stickers have started to shift around on the keys or fall off altogether.  :frown:

Thanks! I go with the "cluttered but organized" approach.  :D

Like Enoch I also have foam falling down though. I've been meaning to invest some time in doing acoustic treatment better because I put mine up haphazardly several years ago when I had no idea what I was doing.
