Re: AKAI MPC stems extraction

I get the feeling the leaked MPC is another keyboard.

This inside the MPC is a game changer.

Re: My journey with Reason+

At least we have the option of an all you can eat subscription, I guess.

And maybe it is exactly what it was intended to be - that option.

Re: R11 Suite - in hindsight

Maybe previews is the missing link. ...As for the song preview, I'm baffled why it's not a thing already, as it's been discussed in many places for many years now. Is there a DAW that offers it, thought? I can't think of any that does (not that it's a bad idea; quite the contrary). MPC does, though ...

Re: R11 Suite - in hindsight

What workstation bread and butter sounds you're looking for? I'm not saying all of the sounds are of the same quality of workstations per se, but stock Reason is pretty much that. A workstation. It shares a lot of the same weaknesses of most workstations (aside from acoustic piano where most modern...

Re: R11 Suite - in hindsight

Now we know the reason why they canceled the Suite line and created Reason+ in its place ;) Jokes aside, I think the subscription is the easier option for the user that wants it all...and that's how they see it as well. It really does make things much simpler. If you want to buy the new REs, best t...

Re: My journey with Reason+

I can think of various scenarios where somebody would feel forced to sub in order to access a device they’re interested in because the other option is to spend 500 bucks on a daw they’re not intending to use plus whatever the cost of the device they are interested in. So I see where that statement ...

Re: Latency: is there soemthing I am missing?

As a side note, my personal solution to this issue has me giddy - I moved up to Apollo interfaces and their latency is <2-3 ms (pretty equal to the first digital machine I worked on, the 3M 32 track). I stopped monitoring in Reason and monitor in the Console app (or just record in LUNA!). I can use...

True, each person determines value. But a value offering could be pulling all the wrong levers for too many people. That's how Xerox, Kodak, MySpace, RIM, TinyPC, IBM (PC division), Yahoo! and Nokia lost an empire overnight. I hope I'm wrong, but R+ feels like an extraordinary product destined to ta...

What are the stand-out monitors and audio interfaces at each price range?

People often ask about what speakers are good, but I think a more useful and informative question is, "What pieces of equipment stand out at around a particular price range?" For monitors, I'm thinking: $150, $250, $650, $1250, $10,000+ For audio interfaces: $50, $100, $200, $500, $1,000+ For headph...

Re: Assuming there's going be one, what you think is coming in Reason 13?

My guess is as worthless as the next person's. I just hope they release it when it's ready rather than when the marketing team say. Or, to put it another way, I hope they have learned the lessons from the shambolic launch of R12. That stuff did lasting damage to the reputation Reason had for robust...

I do not like the idea of a subscription service. I would rather purchase the product and choose to upgrade when and if I want to. I have subscribed to Adobe Create Cloud for many of years. Not all of the upgrades are worth the price (50+ dollars a month). I understand why companies are going with ...

Has anyone from the company, or anyone with inside knowledge even hinted in the slightest that version 13 is actually a thing that is in the works ?

Re: My journey with Reason+

You have to account for the cost of Reason, every existing RE, and then account for new versions of Reason and new REs. The price of Reason+ per year is already less than buying the content released within the year. This means nothing to most people who won't need every R+ device and was never goin...
