Re: Switching DAWs

The amount of frustration with support exist with any major consumer DAW. Look at PT and Studio One. However it doesn't stop me from using it. I will say WORKFLOW is the one thing you should never compromise on. Personally I think its worth shot to try another DAW and see how it feels. Maybe Reason ...

Re: Europa & Grain are smh special

24 Europas in a session for the quality you get out of Europa is pretty insane. Hence why many times I might start off with something like Serum, The Legend, or MixFood 4. But if I need a specific sound made then I'll make the patch in Europa cause the stress doesn't exist on my Mac Mini. If they do...

Re: Europa & Grain are smh special

I've always wanted to ask that since I'm gonna find myself using about 5 of them in a session. I can't do so with synths like VK-2 and the latter. So I'm just imagining what they could create if they redid their older instruments.

I personally wish I could save the patch of Grain with the sample.

Re: Europa & Grain are smh special

Creating bells with Europa is absolutely monstrous. Literally the plucks you can get out of Europa with a sprinkle of distortion is unbelievable. The biggest thing is how QUICK it is to get the sounds set. Envelopes already mapped, LFO's to warp the sound are set and changeable. I just used grain wi...

Europa & Grain are smh special

I just wanted to thank props on the creation of Europa and Grain as I did not know HOW MUCH these instruments mattered to my production. Half the time I try to avoid them just so I can use Serum and the other synth RE I have but . . . SHEESH.

Re: PH makes subscriptions?

It makes sense for rack extensions. I mean when you consider rent-to-own serum which only is $10/ month for that alone, I do believe propellerhead makes a good offer. You can mix and match RE since the platform is based on devices working together. For some who can't purchase everything IMMEDIATELY ...

Re: Oeksound Soothe

So it's only working on resonances. What about harmonics? usually if you have a resonance, you'll at least have a strong second harmonic somewhere (if its a natural one). Sounds interesting if it's good for taking out closet tones :idea: Find something that has pesky elements in the sound that you'...

Nope, like 10% of the time. Usually if I just need a sound to help make things interesting and I've crafted the entire track pretty much.

I had a problem with Serum where the VST said "Please contact *insert steve dude's email*" . The audio would still play through and everything.

Re: **NEW** Softube Tape "It's time to get reel"

So this begs the question, how do VST's compare to RE's regarding DSP load? Is it all individual, based on device, and neither format is better or worse than the other? Or is one format generally better than the other regarding DSP load? It might depend upon device. I'm able to get about the same a...

This is only beneficial to me if you have no plugins or make enough money through your audio advances and write it off as a fee. I don't want to spend out 15 dollars a month just to use the plugins cause after 2 years, I may only be using one plugin really from their sweet but thats $360. Whereas I ...

Re: what do you think of the reason logo (should they change it)

I actually love the Reason Logo. Compared to other DAWs, Reason's is unique, basic yes but clever? If they probably did some color variations or tinkered with it a tad bit for big releases that would be cool but its not like the logo looks aged beside its competitors
