I have desintalled Reason 11 yesterday, because I was happy with R12 since the last updates.
Everything was fine with Reason 12 yesterday, but today R12 won't start, i just see the splash screen, it disappears, and nothing...
Have any of you experienced the same thing ?

I was hopping a new update every month because R12 is still unusable on my computer (hopefully R11 works like a charm). We are now 7 months since the launch of R12 and it cannot be considered a finished product. I still can't understand how we got there because Reason's strengths were its stability ...

The VST plugin Air Music Loom II is truncated in R12. In R11, it's OK and bigger...

Well, R12 was unusable on my computer, but I found a way to have it running fast. I am on Windows 10, and I have to force Windows to use my GPU when using Reason 12. It's on the Display settings of Windows, at the bottom there is "Graphics settings". Here you add the Reason 12 app, and then choose "...

I loved R11 (never understood really why so many were hateful about it) but I see R12 as not ready for release. The more I test R12, the more I love R11, that is very stable and efficient. I took the time to compare carefully R12 (12.2.1) and R11 on my computer and it's clear that I can't use R12 a...

I also have noticed some bugs in this upgrade 12.2.1d50 : - "New devices get browse focus" don't work - I have a strange popup when I quit and reopen Reason (title = test, message = the specified semaphore already exists (10081036)) - still an unexpected red line at the bottom of the browser - R12 i...

This is what I have said in another thread when R11 ans the RRP came out : So there was a tendency to open Reason to the ouside world (RE was the first step, then internal VST support and now Reason as a plugin). But now it seems that Reason Studios want to take back control on Reason and bring it t...

I have also seen these patches with the polystep device, and it's a bit annoying... but I suppose that there are old patches that still use the Line 6 devices too...

So I have R11, that is working fine, and R12 that I can't use at the moment due to performance issues.
So I use R11 in the meantime.
But I wonder what have happened if I was a Reason+ user... I suppose it's impossible to revert to a safe situation once you have upgraded to the last Reason+ version ?

So I'm using the "virtual microphone" to ask for theses improvments : For the DAW * snap setting : absolute or relative by default in the Preferences * snap offset "handle" to fix a point in the audio clip where the snap occurs (not only the beginning of the audio clip as it is now) * low-res option...

I just can't believe this news. RS nearly force us to buy another DAW, and now we have this : - + 100$ for an product that can be seen now as only a plugin among many brillant others - 200$ for just an upgrade of this plugin, and the content of the update is often disappointing because it rarely mee...

There is only one thing that annoy me, it's that there is a bug when you use the Reason Rack plugin within Cakewalk : you can't pass the keystrokes to the plugin, so you can't use Tab to flip the rack, or type something in the browser search field. Don't know if it's Cakewalk or Reason fault, as it...

As Reason 12 is unusable on my computer (every action is too slow), I am forced to find another DAW. As I am on Windows, there is this free Cakewalk by bandlab. I have tested it and I must admit that it's an amazing piece of software. And it looks great too. And very stable so far. There is only one...

R12 (standalone) is the first Reason update that will not work on my computer. I have put my money in it, but it's just unusable, each action is way too long or too slow. There must be a "low res" option so that we can use R12 with the same performance as in R11 . I have no problem with R11. I have ...

Mimic looks cool.
I'm pretty sure that it will have pitch-detection, reverse sample and rex import in slice mode when R12 will be launched in September, because older devices have that and nobody would understand that this brand new baby can't do that as well...

I too like better the new look but then again I will never see it because I never used it ever in a song Ok youre right, it makes mybe more sense at the bottom of the sequencer, because its part of it and so it has to look the same. Sounds logical. But I reaslised that there are more amd more logic...

In the sequencer, in Comp edit mode, you can click and drag the recording horizontally in a audio clip to set a Recording Offset.
It can be a nice addition to be able to do this directly on a audio clip without the need to open it in Comp edit mode. And why not on midi clips too...

I think more appealing R12 videos will come later, it's a long way to September...

Hope they will implement this little thing : the ability to quickly add a snap point anywhere in a clip so that the clip snap to the grid at this particular point and not only the beginning of the clip. This way you can align the clip to the grid at a particular transcient or at the end of the clip....

Absolute Snap, a new snap setting where events always snap to the grid

Thank you for this one, I didn't remember that feature, the default "relative" snap was driving me crazy...

You are right, it's certainly difficult to sell a DAW that has no VST support ...

When I use Reason alone, I tend to use the internal devices first, you can do a lot with them and some creativity. I have chosen Reason because I was tired of all these VST plugins incompatibilities (32 bit, 64 bit VST2, 64 bit VST3, and what next...), some will continue to work in your DAW, some wo...

I think I can see the Loop Supply and Drum supply in the R11 plugin because Propellerheads forgot to hide it (a bug).
As an old owner of R10 full, I think the 2 sounds packs are somewhere on my computer despite the fact that i have uninstalled R10...

Oh thanks idliketoremainanon, I just see your reply now, will try this ASAP....

Please add these 2 little features in R12 : - a way to add a snap offset on audio clips. Reaper, Cakewalk, Mulab has that (and certainly other DAWs) and it's very handy to position audio clips on the grid based on a point wich is not neceesarily the beginning of the clip. Often you want to align th...
