Re: What are you listening to at the moment?

Nice ! I'm not one for 'Nostalgia' bands (ie bands past their prime bangin' out their classics on tour)but I went to see Jethro Tull about 8 years ago. Ian Anderson is a superb showman. Oddly, apart from me who broke through into the restricted front section, the rest of the crowd were all seated, ...

I only picked this up today in the sale (money somewhat tighter than usual at the moment) and so far I am really impressed, so I'm looking forward to the update. On a side note, regarding the comments above about the design (and I appreciate it goes against the general consensus here) I disagree tha...

Re: Giveaway - Hard copy reason pianos and abbey road refill!

Question, do you have to have reason pianos to use abby roads? Reason I ask is I don't think you can get abby roads anymore, that that's what I'd want. If it does require it, then obviously I'd have to go with pianos. No. Reason Pianos and ARK are both stand alone Refills so no need to have one to ...

Re: What are you watching at the moment? (possible spoilers)

Right. Just finished season two of The Blacklist. I personally think Season one was a bit better, but James Spader is brilliant. Also enjoyed watching him as a double act with William Shatner in Boston legal.

Just about to start on season two of Halt and Catch Fire.

Re: Expected REs in august

I think it's no problem with the synth itself but with the soundprogramming. Pure sawtooth with just a tiny little pinch of filter sweep... that's nothing to show the full potential of a synth. True, but I would have expected them to use sounds in the videos to really show off what it can do - not ...

Re: Expected REs in august

There is something about that RED70 GUI that just doesn't look right to me - I don't know, it looks really flat. Flatter than usual? Too flat? The graphic definition of the knobs and sliders also seems a little lower than usual. They look kinda fuzzy to me. To be honest, I'm not too keen on the hue ...

Thanks for correcting that link hydlide. It gave me a chance to listen to all the entries. Anyway, I've just played through the lot again and the high quality of the submissions in such a short time frame still amazes me. Personal favourite this week is Kenni's TheDarkside.

Re: Controller suggestions for use with Reason?

I've been kicking around the idea of changing my controller for a while now and I did look at the Panorama P6 (Couldn't manage with less than 61 keys now). The other option was to get something else and then add the Panorama P1. In the end I wasn't keen on the keys on the P6. I spent about 45 minute...

Re: Refill Packer 8.1 Beta

I got it working, but for some reason Refill Packer had to point to a folder containing the actual Refills. Pointing it to a folder with the shortcuts didn't work. Reason does accept the shortcuts though, so at least I still only need to have one copy of them

Re: ASIO4ALL Crashes Reason every time I try to select it.

Strangely enough, I recently stumbled upon one of my early Reason songs from when I was trialling Reason 5 that had a partial vocal line in it. My work-around for this was to play back the song (very quietly) over headphones to give me the cue and use the windows sound recorder app to record the ind...
