Re: Can't log in

Does RS have any sort of authentication server status on their site? I'd like to get some work done.

Re: Kuassa Lancaster is in the shop

I'm absolutely loving Lancaster. It's got the AC30 raunch and chime I've been missing. I bought both the RE and VST/standalone. Fantastic work from Kuassa!

Re: Holding out on Sale for Friktion?

If it goes on sale, I'll get it. Otherwise, I'll wait until (if and when) I specifically need it for a track.

I've gotten some cool sounds out of the pitch delay on percussive and pizzicato elements.

Kuassa Vox - Any News?

Anyone know the scoop? I'm making due with Pod Farm's AC30, but if Kuassa's Vox model sounds as good as Matchlock, I will be very happy.

Caliburn = sword, Matchlock = musket. Wonder what they'll name it. Longbow? Revolver? Gladius?

Re: RRP Lite for FREE on Plugin Boutique

That's what I bought too. For three bucks! I'm super happy with it. It's a very RAT-like distortion when used with guitar. It has a different voicing than my Kuassa, Scream and Blamsoft distortion options. It's supposed to be a high gainer for bass, but it definitely works for guitar into a Softube...

Re: Balance Driver Output stuck on 48K

My Win10/Balance is 32 bit & 48k too. Everything seems stable, so I'm sticking with it for now. I was getting audio slowdowns and general unhappy behavior when trying to change settings.

Hey Guitar Players!

This hi gain bass distortion sounds like a RAT or Marshall Guv'nor if you put your guitar through it. $3 and you get the R11 Lite deal with it.

Re: Balance may be a “dead product” but it’s still an Ignition Key. Right?

Wow. I'm using R10 with Balance. I've been holding out for a $99 sale for the upgrade, but I'll have to think twice if it's going to break the built-in Ignition Key. Balance has been wonky on and off with some recent Windows updates, so it might be time to finally start thinking about saying goodbye...

Re: Prices in some currencies are higher

It's OK. We need the $American$ RE discount so that we can save up for our medical bills later in life. That $25 savings should come in very handy.

Yeah. Fuck modular VSTs of stuff we’ve already got as REs.
How’s that Vox Amp coming along Kuassa? Get it done :)
Is there really a Vox amp RE in development, or is it just a big group wish at this point?

I'm on an HP z420 workstation with Balance running Win 10. As previously mentioned, use a USB 2.0 port. Also, it seems after more recent Windows updates, I have to unplug and plug the USB cable in order to get the Balance ASIO drivers showing up in Reason and working. I plan on using Balance until i...

Re: Softphonics AmplifiRe in the shop!

Here's a clean demo using the Softphonics Amplifire. https://soundcloud.com/officialstrangers/amplifire-re-demo-2 I would be very interested to hear if one is able to get vintage sounds out of it, or if it's strictly more of a modern amp. Can it do Voxy clean chime through crunch tones? How close c...

Re: computer recommendations

I've been running Reason on a 2011 Macbook Pro for the last year or so. It really doesn't run Reason that well. I recently bought an HP Z420 with a six core processor and 32GB of RAM for $350 on Craigslist. It runs Reason SO much better. I can get to 54 seconds in the benchmark song. The MBP gets to...

I worked with Propellerhead last year on a Balance problem I was having with a Macbook Pro. Turns out it was a hardware problem on my computer that I got resolved.

Has anybody figured out a way to emulate a proper Beatles style Automatic Double Track with a combi of stock devices and/or REs? i supposed it would 'wobble' a variable delay and pitch shift, and mix it back with the original signal?

Re: Nektar Panorama or ???

I got an old midiman Oxygen 8 working. I think what's more important to me than assignable pads and knobs, is a newer board that will respond to velocity differences and touch. I'll be focusing my research in that direction. Online reviews are such a rabbit hole.
