Re: (World) Melody Advice Needed

All, thank you for taking the time to write detailed replies. It sometimes strikes me as incredible that Deadmau5 has no training in music theory if I remember one of his interviews, yet, his stuff is very catchy and one wouldn't be able to guess his approach to melodies. I feel for some people melo...

Re: Song Challenge - Reason I Rly H8 U But I Wuv U 2

I'd be down to participate but I don't get the title, I'd rather just name my own beat, I have nothing against Reason. And the SSL should be allowed since we have to EQ and compress anyway. Hey Tom. I think all those are part of the challenge, though the name is just meant for the kicks. It had som...

(World) Melody Advice Needed

I recently got back into music/Reason, but I realize the one thing that eluded me for much of my previous exploration still continues to be my weak spot. I just. Can't. Melody. Was working on a track for an older challenge on this forum, and I've got some major ideas for the main percussive elements...

Haha, but that's the challenge! See if you can restrict yourself to the rack devices for mixing!

Re: Song Challenge - Reason I Rly H8 U But I Wuv U 2

Haha, it was a toss up between Thor, Subtractor and Antidote for me. Good choice, that Thor mod matrix is a beast. Yes, SSL is the default. The challenge is to do all the mixing using any other device but not the channel strip in the SSL console. In other words, do the mixing in the rack with Mclass...

Song Challenge - Reason I Rly H8 U But I Wuv U 2

Hello and Welcome all, Long time no see. It's good to see the forum still thriving. Le PUF est mort, vive le RaisonTalk. We recently had the 30-year celebrations. As Reason has morphed through time, I think it apropos to return to our innocent beginnings and challenge ourselves with the OG Factory S...

Re: Four free RE's from Skrock!

Sell me on Thermal. Do I need it? what's it good for? any particular strengths or peculiarities? I wrote this little mini tune about 3 years ago using Thermal and a bunch of effects when it first came out. I don't know if it will entice you to download it or scare you away.

Re: Counterpoint in modern music

Great points, guitfnky, but I don't find it wrong to conflate creativity and quality. Often times we pursue quality and expect the outcome to be pleasant after having used creativity towards that purpose. Creativity (which I sometimes also associate with uniqueness) as a standalone surely is enjoyed...

Re: Counterpoint in modern music

I vehemently disagree with the thought that creativity is hard to teach. it’s something I’ve been thinking about for 20+ years now, and it’s something that *doesn’t* get taught, but that may be because it’s ridiculously easy/unnecessary to teach. want to be creative? be curious, and experiment. tha...

Type in chords into the clips in the sequencer

Just curious, how hard would it be code so that you type in the chord name in the clip label in the sequencer and have reason interpret it as midi data and play the chord accordingly? Or not even type in but select from a drop down somewhere in the clip itself. Has this idea been floated before?

Re: Attempting a Song-a-Day project (downtempo acid)

This is some unbelievable work. Your pads (and strings, or well, the string sounding things in some of your songs) are extremely reminiscent of Enigma. Veneficus was terrific.

Re: 6 new REs from Noise Engineering!!!

After having bought the synth rig and not having done a single thing with any of them, I called it chapter closed on buying more synths. If anyone looking at the bundle thinks it's $30 too expensive, please PM me. (Or you could wait for BF).

PS: Kirk, that's one hell of an album. Nicely done!

Re: (old-school psychedelic trance) my 1st finished Reason track

Not my go-to genre, but thoroughly impressed with the technicalities involved here. Definitely sounds like a ton of work (good work, in fact), and the mix is pretty solid too. Certain elements cutting out quite clearly just as they should. Nicely done.

Re: Lithium synth removed from the shop?

Their website has been down for over a year. IIRC that was the dev's only foray into REs. Didn't have many ratings, so I'm assuming it didn't sell as well as one would've hoped. Sucks, this means I may face issues when I upgrade to a new computer and try to sync my REs. I've still got unfinished Lit...
