Re: Reason updates (11.3.7 / 11.3.8) and Reason+

I don’t like the direction things are going for Reason. Last upgrade I paid for was 10, and I’m now positively jumping ship. Craig Walsh at support won’t even let me authorize my computer because I reported it lost so many times 4 years ago. I emailed them a few weeks ago and they still won’t let me...

Re: So when is the high-DPI / GUI scaling update coming?!

@Reason Studios. You probably are well into it and have things figured out, but one possibility to do this would be to just convert all framework to vector based graphics - possibly a pixelated approximation of the original masks - enabling automatic conversion of any 3rd party rack extension as we...

Re: Ive never developed but can it be that hard?

You're speaking out of context of what my original point was. I wasn't asking if programming was hard in general...it obviously is...im asking in the context of the features that have been requested for years. Please stick to the topic. Thank you. No it's not out of context, because I've already an...

Re: Ive never developed but can it be that hard?

Yeah, it is...but it also moots the argument that "coding is hard...thats why these things take years to implement"...there has to be other reasons rather than "coding it really hard"...which was the original question of the post. Can it really be THAT hard? If these smaller companies are doing it?...

Re: Reason 11.1 Update with AU

Curious why Kong's Compressor had a bug... In Reason 10 and 11 we've cleaned up a lot of code behind the scenes, making things more modern, portable and adapting it to the plugin. Kong is pretty old and complex and not an RE, so that was also tinkered with. This was a tiny bug as a side-effect of e...

Re: Ive never developed but can it be that hard?

Fair points! The thing I see, that makes "this is too hard" argument moot, is when 3rd party companies with limited funding come up with way better ideas, with less resources than PH.... or am I seeing it wrong there too? Well... Your talking about different things... One is being able to cope with...

Re: Ive never developed but can it be that hard?

This thread reminds me of a time, years ago, a chap we knew - a Rockist who sang in a guitar covers band - was at a party we were having. We put on Daft Punk's "Alive 2007" album. He listened for a while, his irritation turning to anger, and then eventually he said "It's just shit. Because it's so ...

Re: Ive never developed but can it be that hard?

It just comes down to money. The bug list and wish list is always bigger than the resources available to address them. If you take on more developers you have to sell more products to pay for them. Custom keyboard shortcuts are a fairly easy thing to implement but not doing it will probably not los...

Some of the feature requests i've seen be ignored by Propellerhead...don't seem that hard to implement...

I started my trial of Reason11 and to my disappointment, the GUI is still choppy and laggy on HiDpi mode, and the low resolution option looks blurry...I don't like seeing drunk without being drunk...I hope they do address it, maybe when they release the AU version

Funnily enough I just had to report mine as lost, as I'm currently on a new install after my old one went corrupt and I had no choice except to go nuclear and wipe it. So, it can happen. Maybe not 5+ times in a row, but I'm not entirely without sympathy. It did also warn me that there was only a li...

If you have an HD crash, your license is stuck on the dead drive. PH cannot deactivate it on their end, and you cannot log into your account and deactivate remotely. This is not true!!

why not include the ignition key with the purchase of Reason? It's not that hard.

pretty sure the fact that there are four pages of discussion on whether it’s a good system is an indication that it’s not a good system. 😆 Reason used to not allow computer authorization.
