Re: How to recommend Reason Studios to your friend

In Bitwig, it's possible to do non-real-time capturing by placing a MIDI-Cap after the RRP, should create an empty clip with the appropriate length, then perform a 'bounce in place' on it, followed by an undo action. From the MIDI-Cap window, you can then drag the captured MIDI notes into it BAM! T...

I sold my original ER-R way back. I snagged the whole Korg Collection for black friday, nice to have it again as well as all these other synths.

Re: Sequencer updates on the horizon

Serious question - as a Bitwig user, why would you say its sequencer is better than Reason's?! Bitwig doesn't have automation clips, no pitch editing, no pattern tracks, no blocks mode, etc. If anything, they're on par for me (as Bitwig user from 2018), only they're missing different things :) Thin...

Re: New Lectric Panda VST (Public Beta)

The daddy is Scaler 2 - it does have some built-in sounds but MIDI out is the main purpose. The other two I use a lot are Cthulhu and BlueArp. These two are VST2 only. BlueArp is free. Lurking in the "trialled or bought but hardly used" box are Chordjam, Instachord, Orb Suite and Melodya. At least ...

Re: New Lectric Panda VST (Public Beta)

It might have been quicker if I chose to use something like JUCE, but I wanted to keep my software dependencies / license stuff as minimal as possible. Please consider CLAP format, eventually.

Re: New Lectric Panda VST (Public Beta)

I'm a big user of VSTs that generate MIDI and yours is the only one that lives in effects not instruments. I've had no issues with the others. Have you tried it in FL Studio? I think it will probably not work at all in that. And, yeah, it's normal for them to have a dummy audio output to keep vario...

Re: New Lectric Panda VST (Public Beta)

This VST reports itself to be an effect rather than an instrument, which is a bit odd. Any plans to fix that? Yea, there isn't any category in the VST world for midi effect / midi generator. There are issues with VST "Instruments" producing MIDI, since they are supposed to be a MIDI-->Audio device,...

Re: New Lectric Panda VST (Public Beta)

If RS only had made an empty VST Rack available for free, they could have saved you quite a lot of hassle. I hope you've also strongly suggested this to them as well, as this one thing could really revitalise the RE platform imho. Yea, I think that would have been awesome... A Free Empty Reason Rac...

Re: New Lectric Panda VST (Public Beta)

Having never done any VST development I don’t have a point of comparison. But it sounds like gearing up for VST development is ALSO time consuming, as I’ve suggested to those asking me for VST versions of my REs. Good information, thanks for sharing, and good luck with your new VST! Thanks! It migh...

Re: New Lectric Panda VST (Public Beta)

Any chance for RE? Or have you abandoned that format forever? Abandoned is a very stong word... New RE development is on pause for now. These things take sooo much time and effort, I can only get so much out the door. Coming over to VST3 development took almost 2 years of effort to get a framework ...

Please note, this produces VST3 MIDI output, therefore it does not work with Reason 12.

Re: Reason Studios 13 or 14 (Future Talk)

That said, I have to wonder if the word “permanent” is working all that well in the software context. By that definition i own a ton of software permanently that i can never actually use again (everything I’ve “purchased” permanently since 1986 up to recently), so that meaning is somewhat lost to m...

Re: Reason Studios 13 or 14 (Future Talk)

I've seen this scenario presented in the past, but the thing is - I don't see that ever happening like people think it will. Let's assume RS "throws in the towel". They absolutely have a product that has tangible value and it will likely be sold and bought by a new owner, who would not just kill th...

Re: CV Player Tap, free from Lectric Panda

Yea, the CV Tap was really only designed to be used like this because there is no control over the channel allocation. The purpose to copy one MIDI player stream to another player channel. Anything that merges CV is going to cause you to lose your note-off information. Screen Shot 2018-05-14 at 8.18...
