Re: first step to a 3 monitor setup

Can you tilt any of those vertically? I would love that.. still trying to think of a way... it's tight space with everything setup now, and the ceiling is slanted in corner> I plan to do it with the monitor on the right.

Re: Any way for Reason to record Stereo Mix/What You Hear and/or use Integrated Mic as input source?

I'm following you, but why not just do what I suggested - is it not the same things but simpler? (Just use a spider to split the master output, adding the EQ to the 3/4 path?) Trying to EQ a null is like trying to light a black hole - no matter what you throw at it, the damn thing just keeps devour...

Very very nice. ^ Good work. when you are dealing with any meter that can be divided with three e.g. 3/4 , 6/8, it is called compound meter, while measures in numbers like 5/4 , 7/4, 11/4 are odd meters. Thus, you are in a compound meter in the example. Kindly Gothi Yeah, i know. I by oddest i mean...

Re: Post your non-4/4 tunes here, plz!

I actually write a lot of stuff in 6/8 and 12/8, it's not such an odd signature but I'm very driven to it. This is a song i did when my first daugter was on her way, called "Valsa para Sara" (Sarah's Waltz) though it's a 6/8 song: https://open.spotify.com/intl-pt/track/2CsOqqEVIvFzTB97tRGSRW?si=db54...

Re: Help with time signatures please

That's odd. When you change the project time signature in the transport the sequencer should change too, but i the arranger (the main sequencer), it is not that visible. Try to change the grid to 1/8th and check if you have 6 quavers in each bar. Anyhow when you change the division from 4 to 8, you ...

Re: Any way for Reason to record Stereo Mix/What You Hear and/or use Integrated Mic as input source?

I got feedback once (a few years ago, so my previous setup) and decided to sample it and use it in the song I was working on. I avoid unexpected feedback by not using automatic monitoring mode. Tip for your setup - connect Control Room output to the Sample Inputs; you don’t need a spider, you get t...

I'm pretty sure Reason can't do this automatically. Lucky for me I would never use this feature, but the world is a big place and somebody somewhere needs to do just this (not just you). This use case really appals me too. If you're exporting inserts and sends per channel that means you're exportin...

Ok, I guess it depends on what you call the "stereo mix", the audio coming out or Reason or any audio from the computer including web pages/YouTube.

Reason allows you to select any source your audio card exposes in it's driver, and every audio you want to record with reason has to pass through it (even internal audio).

Re: Good Speaker Monitoring for Mix and Mastering or Sound designing

If I can hear the entire spectrum, my system will reproduce the entire spectrum. Seems logical to me. But I see problems like this before I hear them, because in order to properly perceive the low frequencies you have to listen very loudly. But my goal is always that the things I do work on every s...

Re: Almost all my songs are audibly clipping, what am I missing?

In that case we agree, although I see this argument as academic, because there's no point to have signal on master other than to hear it or export it to file. The peak & VU meters measure the output, not the signal "inside" of master. Actually, if you think about some audio cards, the difference be...
