Re: More CV --> direct control of parameters

You can already do that. Connect the CV to a combinator knob and record that. Oh wow - I knew I could control combi knobs via CV, but I didn't realise I could record it as automation ... cool! OK - I just tried it out and I couldn't get that to work. I mean I can record combi-knob movements made by...

Re: More CV --> direct control of parameters

Something I would really like to see from a device like this would be the ability to convert CV to automation and record it into an automation lane. This way I could record a bunch of fancy LFO patterns produced by CV RE's and then chop up the parts and sequence them really easily. I've done someth...

Re: Apple........ LOL [rant]

I love my Macbook Pro and I didn't even have to buy it ;)

Just don't want to use anything else anymore. Did the Microliimbo before ... I'd rather spend the time left figuring out the issues or building hardware for music, watching a movie or maybe playing some game with my son

Re: Complex from Propellerhead

Wow, what is this python framework you use that allows to access and randomize the RE parameters in real time? That's Jupyter Notebook and looks to be controlling Complex through midi messages as if it was a midi controller. I think it just reads a Remote map file and uses that to identify what mes...

Re: Scrolling in the rack is so janky

Is it the retina resolution or something else? Logic works great. I dunno why reason is so laggy. Yep, it's a know problem. To work around it you have to start Reason in low-res mode. I just noticed that recently after ugrading .. how long is this already an issue? Didn't notice that until recently...

Re: Complex from Propellerhead

looks great, only need a randomize button. :) I tried that... have a look at page 10 or 11 of this thread. Very hard for total randomization. But you get amazing results after some time. TBH per MODULE randomization works great. Here is a short demo for the OSC modules https://youtu.be/7TXG-5YQY4U

Re: PSQ-1684 Rack Extension Appreciation Thread

This time I had a go with the drum pattern parameters (DP dens, DP X and DP Y) merging them with other pulses. This allows to have control how much and when which pulse pattern is applied. As with my other examples one sequencer (S1) plays the root note sequence which is sent to my bass instrument ...

Re: Grain VST/AU?

Guess they want to see if it succeeds before they invest more. Both synths probably share a bit of the same code or platform, so porting should not be too difficult. I think we have to pay for the VST version of Grain. Europa was more a less a test and keep the users calm if PH invests in VST now. ...

I don't think the question is whether you should just 'put more people on it', but 'why has it taken you so long to deal with this?' VST performance was poor at launch. Now Reason performance as a whole is poor. Plus Reason itself is badly in need of updating and people have been vocal about this f...
