All my thoughts go to his family and friends. I hope they get all the support they need at this moment of loss.

Rest in peace, Bossa. Your music will still live on to put a smile on someone's face every now and then.

Re: My Reason Bass program does not want to work.

Hi Caleb I have those old ReFills (ARK, RDK, REB & RPi) and for you to access the sounds, you must use the browser on the sampler instrument you are using and not the Reason browser. Create an NN-XT and click on the folder icon (browse patch) on the panel. Locate the ReFill from there and the patch ...

Re: For sale: Reason 12 suite

The OP say they use RRP in Ableton and want to sell R12. If they sell R12, they won't have R11 to use as a RRP in Ableton. The OP says they do NOT use RRP, so they are fine about no longer having access to Reason. Hi, Because I am using Ableton for a while now and also not using the Reason plugin, ...

Re: Pro Tools vs Reaper

My best advice is: do not adopt a new DAW if you are starting a project and have limited time. By all means, download and experiment with PT in your spare time, it is always good to learn other platforms, but not so to change DAWs just as you start a new project. It might be more interesting to work...

Re: What is your favorite arpeggiator?

My take is always know your DAW arpeggiator (if it has one) very well. Reason's RPG-8 and Dual Arpeggiator do a great job when I need them. My DAW being Live, I also make use of the included arpeggiator in conjunction with other MIDI effects to build some interesting patterns. Now, if I want a more ...

Re: 4gb export limit.

The limit might not be "imposed" by Reason Studios. The WAV file format is limited to a max 4GB size, if I am not mistaken, and AIFF to 2GB. A workaround is to export to W64 or RF64, but I doubt Reason supports these, plus, they are less stable than AIFF/WAV.

No worries! Let's hope their VST3 support is solid. Personally, I haven't used Reason DAW in ages though; I prefer to simply use Reason as a plugin in Live.

Re: Native instruments Kontakt 7 not available in Reason 7.

Hi
The issue is Kontakt 7 is VST3 only and Reason as a host does not support this format. The good news is Reason Studios are running a beta test that implements VST3 support and it should be released some time in December.

Rosetta allows you to run software built for Intel Macs on the new M1 Macs, but it won't help if said software is not compatible with Monterey.

Exactly! I have only just recently upgraded to Big Sur because it took one year for all my software and hardware to be compatible with it. Even if Monterey is basically an enhanced Big Sur, it is best to let the developers do their extensive testing before updating. Keep an eye here if you use softw...

I may on occasion use Reason Standalone too depending on the task and then I export the audio tracks.
Yes, Live haha! I've updated it.
Hahaha! That wasn't necessary! I was joking. Almost every non-Live user says Ableton anyway. :D

Re: R 11.1 Players (midi fx) don't work under Live 11.0.6

Live is not the only DAW that does not support AU MIdi effects, in fact, there are only a handful apart from Logic that do. To avoid. any problems, I only ever load AU plugins in Live if the plugin does not have a VST version, like Apple AU plugins.
