Re: How many reward points for upgrading to R11?

The reward points aren't very rewarding. I've got 25 big ones, but nothing to spend it on. There are SO MANY options.

Re: Radiohead Appreciation Thread

I honestly could never really get into them. I admit a lot of the music is ground-breaking and there's some amazing work there. Kid A is a great album. But I just find Thom Yorke's voice to be whinny and depressing, not to mention out of tune most of the time (I get it's supposed to be like that). D...

Notes to Track with Reason Rack Player,

So, I gather using Notes to Track will not be possible as a Rack Player (VST3) Have the props talked about adding this later on? (if it's possible) I assume it would have to be integrated into the host DAW, making it impossible. In other other words, what method would be used using UMPF with the Dru...

Re: Do you miss Allihoopa? Alternatives?

I truly miss Allihoopa. It was such a good platform. I can honestly say I was skeptical in the beginning and started using it to upload straight from Reason. Before long I meet a whole bunch of other artists, I started doing remixes and had some of my songs/ideas remixed. Allihoopa really connected ...

Re: How many subscriptions do you have? Anything

I don't think Output Arcade is for me. Limited selection of scraps in each kit. Interface is way too much. The modifiers (modulation) aren't very amusing. Setting the key can be misleading because I have a loop that is clearly not in the specified key according to my ears. Ain't nobody got time for...

Re: POLL: Do you use any music making mobile app?

Yes, I've started using Reason Compact on my iPad frequently. It's simple yet complex. It will develop with more features intruments, rack options. There are quite a few sounds and the arp and chords are pretty nice with all the options. I keep discovering stuff. We really need some sort of mixer op...

Re: How many subscriptions do you have? Anything

None - I think the only one on the list that causes me a headache from time to time though is Spotify. Not having (even a free account) subscription to Spotify means sometimes I can't hear people's music. It's something I don't think I would do personally, posting a link to a sign-up page instead o...

Re: How many subscriptions do you have? Anything

None. The reason all of these companies are keen to sucker users into subscriptions is because they know they will earn more money from you in the long run. Splice - I'm buying any sound I want for 8 cents vs buying a bloated sample pack. Big sucker here. The service makes the production process mo...

How many subscriptions do you have? Anything

I"ve never been a subscription kind of guy. But that's changed this year. With everything up in the cloud, subscriptions are the way to go. What do you guys/gals have? 1. Netflix (Premium 4k) (16.99 CND) 2. Amazon Prime (100 per year CND) 3. Spotify (10.99 CND) 4. Arcade (Output) (10 US?) 5. Loupclo...

Is anyone currently subscribed? Besides me If so I'd love to know if the Loopcloud new Drum VST works with Sequences. I've tested it with Reason's Drum Sequencer and it works great, but of course it only triggers 8 of the 16 possible midi notes, a pity. I've tested Komplusion which only seems to pic...

Re: Loopcloud 5.0 released - with subscription model

I'm actually quite excited by the 5.0 release. I subbed for the 7.99a month option. Mainly for the 10/day free samples you get from pretty much there entire library. (I'm aware they have free samples ever couple of weeks, as I usually go through those as well). Much more variety with the sub though!...

Reason is seriously due for a major Sequencer re-do and browser section enhancement. The graphic improvements will come, but just not sure when.

I think the only problem with players is there are not enough of them. We currently have 8-9 in the shop that could be considered sequencers. We have a few hundred more to go before we are on par with the number of available synths. Agreed, I'm more excited about Player releases then synths. It see...
