the thing about the new combi that gets me is that—yeah, it’s an improvement, but it’s not that much of an improvement. most of it is visual, not functional. even the functional stuff (more controls) is not much different than what was there before—just more of them. between that and the other <che...

New Live 11 Suite installed , Reason uninstalled, happy ... it's over , when it's over

"Reason user since 1997"

More like a bitter divorce after 24yrs of marriage.

I never used this feature before but I could imagine it being useful for playing live. They could probably have kept the combinator like functionality of the mix channels whilst still adding in the ability to host combinator patches inside them. Furthermore I'd like the ability to host combinators i...

To be honest this is not the most ambitious roadmap I've seen. Behringer have ambitious plans a free DAW. UA have a free DAW that aims to compete with ProTools if you have their hardware.

Reason Studios' CEO maybe wasn't born when Reason 6 had a PWYW upgrade price. If you earn a living making music you could just put the increase down as a business expense on your taxes. But as many of us are hobbyists R12 probably doesn't earn the $200 upgrade price as apart from 3 new features it d...

Yeah I've come to the conclusion that I don't like any of the IK stuff in the 99 tier and below. I was considering upgrading to the 199 tier to get Modo Drums and Modo Bass. But its all a hassle to install and puts loads of bloatware on your drive that you have to cleanup manually. As for T-racks I ...

That means the price will be $129 whenever they have a sale on Reason upgrades. I'm frugal with DAW upgrades and patient so I will wait for a sale.

seriously?

Have you ever tried anything on free trial like Apple Music, Splice or Netflix?

Acapellas tend to be tricky with root detection since it’s multiple notes, can’t speak for other samplers, but Reason isn’t analyzing the entire sample. Grain operates the same way. Single note samples tend to be accurate though. So it really only works on monophonic material? does Serato Sample de...

I will wait for the BF sale.

Can you think of any other software company that would launch a new version without having a "What's New?" list and/or video on the home page? Instead we have to click a "Yes Please" button before we get to see the list. Maybe it's very clever marketing, or maybe it's a bit dumb. That's what they n...

They should let you use arrow keys to scroll through the credits faster.

How do you get those graphics?

I used the Bertom Analyzer plug-in via a VST3 plugin bridge.

Looks like the stock Reason EQs exhibit frequency cramping near Nyquist. Most well designed EQs use decramping to sound more musical in the high frequency ranges. 12db at 1k https://i.imgur.com/XOcMtTm.png https://i.imgur.com/PM7Zue5.png 12db at 7k https://i.imgur.com/THIROvQ.png https://i.imgur.com...

But I was waiting to hear whether the stretch algorithms in mimic surpass what can be done in the sequencer. That would be such a Reason move. To improve stretch and pitch but bury it in a new device so you have to bounce everything through it like it is with resampling. What’s the general consensu...

Mimic makes more sense once you start to think of the new Combinator. On its own Mimic maybe isn't very interesting, but within the modular playground that is Reason the only limitation is lack of imagination. With custom GUIs and customizable macro scripting, you will be able to build more complex ...

Today I learned the NN-19 was named after a song I had completely forgotten. I've not heard that song in decades.

I said "Apart from key detection and good quality time stretch". An MPC 1000/2500 running with JJOS can do all those other things including importing entire songs, 32 slices, automatic slice detection etc etc. And of course modern MPCs like the MPC Live can do even more than that. My man come on ag...

For some reason they have made the ReGroove mixer flat but the new hi-res SSL mixer graphics are still skeuomorphic. Reason now has an inconsistent design language. Some things are flat some things are realistic like the rack and mixer. I'd say the new ReGroove design fits better with the flat desig...

Not really. Mimic can do more things. Apart from key detection and good quality time stretch, Serato sample isn't doing anything you couldn't do on an MPC decades ago. I highly disagree MPC's were very limited the earlier additions you couldn't reverse slices, key shift, pitch detect, import an ent...

Just because Ryan never uses samplers doesn't stop them being important. It depends on the genre you make. Hip-Hop or electronic music uses samplers extensively but if you don't make those genre's and I thought Ryan put together a great video which demonstrated Mimic well. I agree but I do think th...

The mixer is looking pretty good. Still no Dark skin?

What does the mixer look like?
