I think they increased the price of the upgrade to push people towards the subscription. There will probably be a sale on the upgrade at some point, maybe black Friday, maybe Christmas. I remember that Mattias once ruled this out if the release was too recent. In this case it would only be half a y...

Last time I tried it they had a full 90 days trial. Plenty of time to check out everything. :-) I still find the gfx and color scheme of Logic the most appealing amongst current DAW's. But I've always been struggling with the AU-only approach. Unlike VST's (copy to the target folder and done), AU's ...

I did - and it worked. :-) Well, at least for simple tasks like "Equalizer". For more exotic devices it is more difficult, of course. You are joking, right? [...] You must have a very broad definition of 'if works' :lol: A bit, yes. ;) But reducing a list with 1000 entries down to 100 entries is al...

Solved! I had the Take 5 connected with MIDI in and out to the Studio 24c interface... But I had to connect it via USB to the computer (with the computer connected to the Studio 24c). Once connected via USB and selecting Take 5 as the master keyboard (I don't know if the latter was essential), Take...

I don’t have the BlamCo to test, but if the results you show were happening for everyone, the product would be totally unusable! There must be some other explanation for what you’re seeing… Exactly, that‘s why I‘m careful with my conclusions and don‘t blame (no pun intended) BlamCo. EDIT: I did a (...

Have you found the cause for that comb filter like response? Meanwhile what Pultec emu are you leaning towards? No unfortunately not. :( I tried it with other settings (e.g. 48KHz) but with same results. Since I cannot confirm the results in any other way (and I cannot rule out the possibility that...

For EUR 54,00 (~ USD 59,00) incl taxes it is the most expensive bundle. Though it has Neve EQ emulations included. So there's that.

Or you ignore the Bundle with the Neve EQ's and stick with MP-5 for €43,00 After all, it is 2 EQ's in one!

I'm in the same boat (not yet decided), and I have tested the candidates (also e.g. Kuassa EVE MP-5) with Bertom EQ Curve Analyser (https://bertomaudio.com/eq-curve-analyzer.html). The Blamco Program EQ was so far the only one that gave me nasty artefacts on the diagram: Screenshot 2024-05-19 at 14....

Panning for each 6 osc would of been nice

Iirc this has been discussed at KvR: panning doesn‘t make sense because the filter is still mono. So no stereo spread possible…

In defense of Reason Studio: a lot of other vendors are now doing the same (DAWs as well as VST plugins) as I easily can see in my “Music” folder. What other vendors are you seeing do this? I have a lot of plug-ins, and literally none of them do this (save for the aforementioned Melodyne). Back fro...

What other vendors are you seeing do this? I have a lot of plug-ins, and literally none of them do this (save for the aforementioned Melodyne). Reason is the only application that installs gigabytes of data there. The only other exception is Melodyne, which I always fix by simply editing the plist ...

They install stuff to the user music directory, which is kind of like rubbing salt into a wound. Not only will you have to waste system disk space on it, but now you have to manually tailor your backup strategy with exceptions, etc. to accommodate them throwing Gigabytes of data in the User Music d...

Reason already has FLAC support

Not on Windows.

Uh really? Didn’t expect that they did it the easy way by using system functionality. That’s indeed a flaw. I have my entire sample lib (50GB) in FLAC format. Given that I someday might revert to Windows that would be a major bummer.

Will there be FLAC support because its kind of ridiculous that Reason 12 doesn't support it?

Reason already has FLAC support: it can import any FLAC file. Only missing part is the export of the mixdown.

I'm Still Loving R11 RRP In Live ;) https://gifs.eco.br/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/gifs-do-michael-jackson-comendo-pipoca-2.gif For what it‘s worth, the RRP has significantly improved with R12 in both, memory usage and size. Iirc the size of the RRP in R11 was roughly 400MB on my Mac, while it‘s no...

I would use a free re which i can't remember the name of right now but I'm sure someone else here can tell you the exact name. It's something with a/b. There's two of them, but one of them will be the one you need. Either the ones from pongasoft: https://www.reasonstudios.com/shop/browse/?developer...

but expressing what you hope for also and putting a little pressure like that should be positive and not negative.

Expectations regarding the DAW/sequencer have gone through the roof in recent years. Props couldn't help but fail.

It‘s even worse: With the update they did break VST things, telling „we improved compatibility“, and have the cuzpe to let the plugin developers do the cleanup stuff. And a bunch of newly introduced bugs. I cannot help but feel the updates are rushed more and more. It‘s been 5 years since I switched...

This can‘t be good for Reason Studios and a possible update to Reason 13. Who will buy the update and give up VST2 support?

Same is true for Ableton, Bitwig, Studio One, (you name it)... they are all in the same boat.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I‘m not sure what you want to achieve, but would this help you?

Much love for BeatMap here. It usually produces quite nice drum loops - at least more to my liking than the ready-to-use audio loops. But as stated before: use it for synths with percussion sounds. For example with the „Taiko Drums“ preset from Friktion. Instant Japanese drum performance!

@luckygreen: Thanks for the tip, but on VST side my go-to Widener is „Wider“ by Polyverse: https://polyversemusic.com/products/wider/ I don‘t know what they are doing, but this plugin has none of the drawbacks. I just works and is mono compatible. That‘s why I was interested in a equally good RE sol...
