Re: Kuassa Rectifor RE in action…

Fantastic news. It's always exciting to see/hear a new amp from Kuassa.

Between Kuassa and Turn2On, guitarists are remarkably well catered for in Reason: a fact that I don't think gets pushed enough amidst the endless sea of electronica and trap tutorials.

Re: They seem to really need the money: REASON 12 UPGRADE 60% OFF

It’s a cheap path because you buy it now for $70 then register it during the grace period when R13 is announced. Ahhh... Clever. I hadn't realised the grace period was from 'registration', rather than 'date of purchase', but if it is as you say, this would be a great pooprtunity for anyone who's no...

$70.31 on JRRShop with code FORUM at checkout. :thumbs_up: That's - £56.95 in British money. Pretty cheap but not sure it's worth it for the updated graphics and Combinator and a browser that searches as you type but I could open the Reaper projects that use the Reason 12 RRP that I saved when doin...

Re: They seem to really need the money: REASON 12 UPGRADE 60% OFF

It's a superb deal. Why the animosity? I bought it not long after launch, just before the price rise (for about 100 quid, I think - thanks to that 'Forum' code at JRRShop), so I'm not going to begrudge someone getting a bargain now. I genuinely think we've reached the stage where people will argue a...

Re: Kilohearts - Lots of RE for FREE

This is a tremendously generous gesture by Kilohearts. I was a big fan of the KHS-One. A lovely, rich subtractive synth. (Not sure if that's included in the list of freebies for people who haven't already bought it, but if it is, then you should definitely grab it.)

Re: New RE Photon Particle Splitter by LoveOne

It's really nice on vocals, if you want something a bit 'out there' and experimental. I honestly didn't think I'd need this, because it seems to cover similar ground to JP's Animus, but it's arguably easier to rein in. Both are splendid, but the fact that you can make it more subtle and transparent ...

Re: New RE Photon Particle Splitter by LoveOne

Sigh....

February: ''I don't need any more reverb plug-ins. I already have at least 15 really good ones. Anything else would be overkill.''

Three reverbs later: ''OK, maybe just one more. But this is a shimmery, granular one, so it's different.''

Right I love my Continental and my Compact. I really do. I’ve got the Gforce RE-Strings. I’ve got the IKMultimedia B3. With all that in mind can anyone sell me on the x-705 and the 310? And obviously I used up my trials a long time ago. I really like the 310. I remember being absolutely blown away ...

Re: SONONICS IS GOING OUT OF BUSINESS!

Really sad news. Revival was the very first RE instrument I bought, way back in 2014. (I think I may have bought Polar a few days earlier, but that's an effect, so it doesn't count.) Revival had (and still has) a real, organic grit which stands up beautifully all these years later. It's perhaps not ...

Re: Is Quad Note Generator Shit or is it just me?

I find it incredibly frustrating. I haven't used it for a very long time, and never managed to get anything I really liked out of it. Any potential it has for generating something musically 'useful' (ie. something which goes beyond random electronic bleeps, farts and bibbles) seems to be trapped beh...

Well, this really is a headscratcher. I went for it (to see what would happen), expecting the code to be rejected because I've already had two trials of R+. I'm a 'perpetual' owner of R12, so my only interest in R+ is for the Bassline Generator which I haven't got around to buying yet, so £1 x three...

I'm really enjoying this.

I especially like the fact that it's not really designed for the kind of music...
