Re: Nektar Panorama Remote Maps Thread

I got my P6. Reason cannot find it. Tried registering on Nektar site to get firmware + drivers. Cannot login with the created account (invalid password).

E-mailed Nektar support.

Good stuff, good stuff.

(Metal) Song about songwriting: The Scale

Fellows, here's a track we wrote and recorded one gloomy day 30/12/2009. You don't have to be into metal to appreciate the artistic struggle ;->

Pain of creation,
art of frustration.
A song doomed to fail:
The Scale

Re: RE vs VST efficieny (platform specific optimizations)?

I guess easier way of putting it; Is it possible to provide OS-platform specific optimizations inside REs?

RE vs VST efficieny (platform specific optimizations)?

So many people still posting about VST vs REs performances. They don't seem at all directly comparable to me, but it got me wondering... How much of the efficieny do REs lose against VSTs because they're multiplatform? And how much because of their Reason specific complexity? How limiting is the SDK...

Re: Nektar Impact LX - black keys issue fix (Windows)

I have no idea but that sounds like a hardware problem...? Have you contacted Nektar and tried to get it physically fixed?

Cool that you found a workaround though, you coded it yourself?

Re: Benedict has left ReasonTalk.

Re: Nektar Panorama Remote Maps Thread

I'm gonna keep my Oxygen 49 as a secondary keyboard (and maybe get somekind of a carry bag for it so I can take to my friend's place for jamming). Thanks for the info! I've been actually looking for someone who has experience with both keyboards (since I cannot physically test P6 myself, I'll have t...

Re: Nektar Panorama Remote Maps Thread

Hello, I'm getting P6 next month and I was wondering about these remote maps. Is there a global file with all of the remote maps or do I have to manually add the remote maps for all Rack Extensions I'm planning to use?

Re: Infected Mushroom: Making Psytrance

Kinda cool but I'm starting to really dislike their own plugins just because they use these same tricks and sounds (and all the Manipulator processed vocals just sound the same) on just about every song.

Re: RANT

I'm sorry for your problems, LA, hope you get them solved. I'm not trying to spruce up anything. I was serious about your trying Bootcamp and Windows on the same hardware. It would be a handy way to test if this is OS or hardware related problem. (Edit: You mentioned 9.2. There's also 9.2.2 available)

This is not Mac hate. I have no hate for Macs or Apple. I'm just stating WELL KNOWN facts. You are paying 2-3x price of the similar PC hardware when you purchase an Apple computer (I've owned iMac once - and on a positive side, you can sell your Mac hardware and make most of your money back).

Re: RANT

Instead of the waiting game would you like a daily no-progress report from Propellerheads? Ranting is okay, but if you've invested thousands of dollars into hardware and software, be patient. And while you're waiting, install Bootcamp and Windows version of Reason?

Re: RANT

Mac's are overpriced and underpowered, this has been a well-known for years. I'm sorry, but the ball is mostly in Apple's court. Props are people too. It takes time to analyze system reports. Maybe they haven't found anything, maybe they're trying. Maybe not. Who knows. You should probably go to the...

Reason stable version crash tracking/logging?

I had a project open and minimized in the background for about an hour. Reason (9.2.2d1) just crashed (Windows 10). Restarted Reason. Empty project. Few seconds pass. Reason crash. Ok... Opening project again, recovered some audio. Reason crashes after I've had the project open for less than a minut...

Re: Shame on you PH!

It's all about the money, as sad as it is. My advice: Learn the basics of Reason (or any other DAW), then try to learn even the more advanced stuff. Later you can apply your skills to other stuff. You don't always have to be using the latest version. Or all the plugins. Sometimes restrictions and li...

Re: Laptop maxing out with 2 midi tracks?

You should probably upgrade you CPU (I know it sucks with laptops...). i5 sounds bad, especially since you don't seem to know your actual CPU speed or number of cores. Could be just that some rack extensions require more CPU power. I was surprised that recently my laptop (first time in about year I'...

Re: Reason 10 Rumors

After Props investing in Rack Extension for years and years, VST support is very unplausable. Just make the core software better. I'd be happy if I could just manually type in values instead of tweaking the knobs. Or at least add a different precision mode. Because sometimes trying to get these damn...

Yeah, that's just the thing, another workaround. Go to three-four different Props web sites to get my Reason news, I don't think so... At least I get some e-mails, but even they seem to be mostly about RE sales. Although I admit I haven't visited http://www.propellerheads.se in a year or so (since t...
