Re: I've become to appreciate the Reason stock devices more and more...

Ableton has some great creative devices as well though where without them I feel limited. Drum Racks is Abletons best invention and the way Simpler and Sampler integrates. Indeed, Ableton has plenty of great tools , at least with the full version and suite, but I for one was an Ableton Live Suite u...

Re: Possible to Install Rack Extensions and Content to external drive?

I´ll try to chime in here even I´m not on a MAC, just because I don´t thinki MAC or PC matters much ... Simply,- w/ older Reason versions, it WAS possible moving factory- and orchestral soundbanks elsewhere, then include that drive/folder into Reason Browser/ "Reason Sounds" (or similar) and that w...

Re: Possible to Install Rack Extensions and Content to external drive?

Ok, obviously hard links are of no benefit if the data doubled. but have you tried to use the aliases method (assuming what you're using now is a soft link)? The only thing that's working for me without the Authenticator blowing up is if it has direct access to the files on the local filesystem / i...

Re: Possible to Install Rack Extensions and Content to external drive?

I know the OS's are very different, what i mean is if there are different levels, or types of symlinks on OS x as in Windows. In macOS you can have: Hard links (basically a a mirror copy of the original file) Soft links, which is a less fancy name for symbolic links (symlinks) Aliases, which is bas...

Re: Possible to Install Rack Extensions and Content to external drive?

This is odd, i have the Re folder simlinked in Windows and it works flawlessly. In Windows, you have 2 levels for symlinks, and they are a bit different on security. When i first saw this discussed in the context of applications, what is most advised is to create a directory junction. They don't ha...

Re: Possible to Install Rack Extensions and Content to external drive?

Anyway, it didn't work. Anyone know why they do it this way? No. Still don't think it's possible. Regarding how to create symlinks, the best way is to use full paths when creating source and destinations, like in: ln -s /Users/Myname/Music/Propellerheads/foo /Volumes/MyExternalDrive/Music/Propeller...

Re: Reason 11 Suite and external storage

I thought I was pretty clear when I said that I'd tried symlinking with no luck, and as far as my OS is concerned, it should be pretty evident from my signature. (Maybe not everyone has signature display enabled, dunno.,..). BUT, it really boils down to "No, this is not possible". At least for all m...

I get that some people are pessimistic by nature, but this thread is a tad on the apocalyptic and conspiracy-like side for my taste, and the post's topic is rather pointless to begin with. Anyway. Nothing of what's being said is backed up by actual facts or numbers. How can you prove that Reason has...

Possible to Install Rack Extensions and Content to external drive?

I have rather limited space available on my MacBook's system drive and my RE's are now moving toward 20GB of space. I have an external SSD drive formatted with APFS literally glued to my MacBook, so it's always available and it has the same mount options applied as the system drive. What I've always...

THERE IS NO WAY TO CAPTURE MIDI IN REASON?????????? Off course you can record MIDI in Reason, but you can't use the same technique for loop-recording MIDI as you can using audio, that is, there is no automatic creation of new note lanes when using record with cycle activated like there is when reco...

Predator! It's the best synth for all kinds of uplifting and interesting sound in the RE market. At least all the clusters, stabs and pads and fx + the massive soundbank from the beginning makes it a winner imo.
Yeah, and it looks like crap as well!

Re: Can't use Melodyne Editor VST in Reason 10

you have clearly never used melodyne. it’s quality is leagues beyond reason’s native pitch edit. melodyne sounds undetectable. reason’s pitch edit is ok for some uses, but on vocals it’s not ideal unless you want an electronica sound. plus you can change individual strings pitch in a guitar chord s...

Re: Can't use Melodyne Editor VST in Reason 10

So, to sum it up:

The reason I don't see Melodyne in my list of plugins in Reason's plugin window is because it isn't 64-bit and Reason only supports 64-bit VST's?
Because it is indeed a VST 2 plugin as well as a VST 3 and AU.

It doesn't show up in Studio One 4 either, only the VST3 and AU versions.

Re: Complex-1 low adoption rate? I just bought it, did you?

What I like about Complex-1 vs VCV rack is that it fits on my laptop screen nicely. VCV modules are huge. Also it's integration into Reason makes it very easy to be musical with it. Conversely it's maybe more difficult to be really experimental... I don't think C-1 is that good for learning modular...

Re: Complex-1 low adoption rate? I just bought it, did you?

I'm still on the fence with this one as well, even though the price isn't half bad at 50% off until May 12. Do I need it? No, probably not. But if I only bought stuff I needed, what would be the fun in that? You have some good VST alternatives if you want to experiment with virtual modular synths, s...
