Re: Vocoder Bass

If you have parsec try running different oscillators through the voice modifier then adding the softube saturation knob with a high setting. Make sure to modulate the position knob of the voice modifier and to be very gentle with formant changes. Most dubstep growl/vocal basses are not made this way...

Re: Reason 10 Rumors

A NI Massive rack extension may not ever exist but I've seen videos on youtube of it's wavetables sampled into Serum and Expanse is compatible with those. I'm not sure about copyright issues but if there isn't a conflict Massive could be roughly emulated.

Re: This world isn't how it used to be

I watched the video and honestly I didn't see the described parenting or social environment when I was growing up. This may be because I was born in 88 and grew up in rural ohio though. "Country" life was nothing like the pampered situations he described for my friends and I. Maybe I'm blind to it b...

Re: Dubstep

Expanse all the way. Zero can make some great sounds but I found Expanse to be a lot more fun to program. It is amazing at creating a wide range of sounds but I probably created close to a hundred dubstep basses just during my trial. As soon as I can afford it I'm snatching it up!

Re: CV - Do you use it? I don't.

I didn't use cv for the first year I started using reason because I was using presets and was intimidated by it honestly. When I started making my own combinators is when I fell in love with it. I use it a lot for modulating effect values. With pads I tend to use slow lfo rates and it always makes t...

Re: Drum Synthesis or Rack Extension

I have only been using reason for about 4 years, but over time I have found my personal favorites for drum/cymbals.

Question about automation lanes

I have often wanted to draw curves or other shapes in the automation lanes, but have never seen an option or feature to do so. I am currently using 7 and was wondering if 8 was capable of doing this. I used to do this in FL studio years ago before switching to Reason 6 and have missed that capabilit...

Re: is Propellerhead dying?

If I were to speculate on the economic and social state of Reason I would say it is thriving. With the new image it is likely to gain a lot of new, youthful users that will invest in rack extensions then feel more compelled to stay due to the investment. I have never been more excited to use the pro...

Still would love a successor to the un-16. Like a pitch shifted unison effect with the ability to edit each individual voice.

Re: The Forgotten Natives of the Rack

I love the CF 101! It is wonderful for getting things to sound metallic and unnatural when then mod is zero and the feedback way up. It is a must have for unique percussion and robotic basses! As far as a general chorus though... eeek!

Re: If you could only use 3 REs, which ones would you choose?

1. Saturation knob - Love it on bass and drums 2. Faturator - for light distortion on supersaw/square leads 3. Skope - helps me visualize the changes that occur to waveforms when doing sound design, probably my favorite RE of all time A year ago I would have definitely said Antidote but I ended up g...

Re: Urban Bangers

I don't know if you would dig it, but DNA Labs is coming out with Hydronexius and it seems to be geared towards urban basses and leads judging by the demo tracks.

I have been using it to control the lp filter frequency in thor when making plucked basses. Being able to control the curve so easily and the results I got about made me cry tears of joy lol.

Re: The Rack Extensions of your dreams?

An effect device based off of the voice modifier in parsec. It would allow you to load your own samples and have tools to modify them (like distortion, flanging, delay) resulting in bizarre modulation source material.
