Re: How to sidechain in Reason, exactly? Is there an easy way?

My preferred approach is to use an output bus for the tracks I want sidechained. I create a Sweeper effect insert in that bus and configure it the way I want. I use the Gate output of the kick of either Redrum or Kong to trigger the Sweeper envelope. Depending on the source material I can choose to...

Re: FAQ: VST in Reason

Another question: How can I bookmark / copy a vst preset to a certain folder? When I browse through an instrument presets and I hear one that I want to "remember", how I do that? With the standard instruments and Rack Extensions, you can just drag something in the browser to another folder, let's s...

Re: USB Sound card - Question 1

Tnx Normen, that's a clear answer. I will upgrade my PC (=buying a new one) but I think I'll go for an internal soundcard. With that Focusrite I also encounter other strange behaviour.

Re: USB Sound card - Question 1

Well, I know I haven't got the latest CPU and all, and of course I can post all details regarding my set-up, but still, my question keeps the same; does an external USB soundcard (ok, Focusrite Scarlet one 2nd gen) increases the CPU load? My PC is way better than the adviced configuration by Reason....

USB Sound card - Question 1

I recently bought an external sound card / USB DAC. It sounds better than the on-board option that I used before, so that's good. But when working in Reason, I get a lot more notifications "computer too slow to play song". The indicator in Reason (DSP workload) and Windows Task manager both show inc...

Re: Blamsoft releases eXpanse 2.0 and Zero 1.2

The eXpanse synth seems to be an excellent sounding synth, and its UI is an invitation to try out all buttons, explore what they do, modify, and create new sounds. The interface gives me the feeling to be more in control of sound creation / modification, and that is, of course, a very good thing. Fr...
