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

I recently tested some speaker monitoring around 500-600 $ : KRK Rokit7 G4 Adam T7V Yamaha HS7 Presonus E7 XT Focal Alpha 6.5 (a little higher price) at this price range, almost all of the speakers add color to your sound. I don't care if you enjoy listening to your speakers. What we want as a musi...

Re: Bouncing mixer channels with fx

I'm assuming you want to mix this on another daw. Bouncing mixer channels follows the mixer signal flow, so the only effects you can export with single channels are the inserts. That's why there are specific export channels for send fx's, the master channel and paralels, and if it is a master effect...

Re: How to choose a good Sound Card

I agree with Selig. And I don't think you have an issue with the phone amp either, at least considering the AKG K701 are 65 ohm, so there shouldn't be an issue with them or the soundcard. Do you listen to music with this system? How does it compare to your productions? What do you mean to say the ca...

Re: How to choose a good Sound Card

First and foremost this should be on the hardware forum, so if any admin can pull it there, I'd be great. To the point... The choice of a soundcard depends on the functionality you want from it. You say your audiobox is not enough for your monitors and headphones, but this is a bit too undefinite be...

Man i totally missed this.

I mix stuff for 20 years now, but i really like and always learn stuff by seeing others doing it, so I'm sure I'll check it out!

I might do one of these myself one day, to show off my BCF2000x3 + BCR2000 modus operandi while mixing with reason! :)

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...

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 ...

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.

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...
