Re: Which Ekksp Sounds synth do I need

Welp no excuse to not grab ES-01 now. Killer price.

Btw I have both SYNR and Drumsyn. I personally find Drumsyn easier to use due to its simpler design.

Re: Should RS bring back Reason Lite?

If they do bring something back like this it really should be compatible somehow with the full version - eg: a while back I was trying to get my friend in on using Reason so we could collab better. So they got a version of Reason 11 Lite but I was frustrated to find there was no way I could save a f...

Re: Ekssperimental Sounds multi-FX bundle

Yeah I feel like it's been a pretty low-key year in general for all Reason related stuff. Myself included .. Hopefully next year brings some more inspiration for all.

Re: Mimic Creative Sampler really needs a v2 upgrade...

Isn’t the issue with non automatable knobs to do with a limitation with the MIDI standard? I remember them saying something like that years ago.

Re: Bandcamp just fired 50% of its staff

Yep, ditched by Epic, and now this. Bandcamp is still the only place I buy music so I hope it keeps going.

Perhaps we've all been taking advantage of the Bandcamp Fridays too much, leaving nothing to actually keep the platform profitable .. ??

Re: Dubstation half price

I like it and use it. It was a freebie back when PB seemed to do better bonuses.

I don’t think it lives up to its dub name but it’s still great and the saturation builds up nicely.

Re: Next sale recommendation for Rack Extensions in 2023

Might not suit your style of music but Ouroborus is a pretty fun device to experiment with. It combines delay, distortion, filter, reverb and noise with an LFO and feedback loop. Doesn’t read very exciting from that, but the way it’s all put together is pretty neat. https://www.reasonstudios.com/sho...

Re: Re-Trials

Agreed. In fact I worry about wasting trials so much, that unless I'm already 85-90% on board, I don't trial things at all, unless I'm absolutely ready to buy - kinda making the discovery of something new/unexpected aspect of demoing something almost non-existent. It's definitely better than having ...

Re: Tsar-1 vs 1R

Fig, I think you got in on the IK Multibuy right? Did you get Sunset Studios reverb? For realistic rooms and spaces, I think it’s fantastic. Heavy on CPU though, like most IK plugs.

Apologies if this was the first thing you tried, but can you grab the corner of the VST window and drag to resize? I don't have version 10, but version 9 has always behaved normally for me.

Re: To Screw or Not to Screw…

I pointed out to them that the rear rack rails for Malstrom, and the 2 Layers REs were missing when they went to HiRes, but they never fixed them. Just don't think it matters too much to them. I also pointed out the the new front of The Echo in HiRes changed to have full height Rack ears (whereas th...

Re: Ekssperimental Sounds SPACEXPANDER - Spring Reverb

Maybe you have the update but don't realise. The option to change IRs on the front is rather stealthy. Do you see a letter on the left side of the patch name display? That's where you change it. Just click and drag. There's not an obvious dropdown menu or anything. Also, check the rear. Do you have...

Re: Ekssperimental Sounds SPACEXPANDER - Spring Reverb

Actually in RE land, I use Ekss FX3180 Spring Reverb way more than SpaceXpander. But it's as simple/bare bones as they come. Just level and mix, that's it.

I've grown to really like this Re. AFAIK, it's the only one of it's kind in the Reason shop. But, from the day it was released, I wished it had the IR selector on the front because I wanted to be able to have a knob on my combinator guitar fx chain/rig for easy browsing while jamming.

Re: Which Reason Devices would make it on their own

Yeah it's easy to image the idea of something like Korg Gadget, where you can get it all in one program, OR as separate plugins. But honestly (and I think they've come to truely realise this), the magic comes from using the Rack as a whole, rather than any 1 individual piece. Having said that though...
