Re: Black Friday sales have begun, including discounts on Reason 10

I missed out on GForce ChamberTron for €25 as intro offer. Tested it and liked it, but still was 1 hour too late when going to buy. And now it is not on sale. If it goes for €25 again, I will get it. Emotional Piano for €35 is tempting. Guess one can tweak Radical Piano, but Emotional Piano does hav...

Re: EzMix used as VST? And opinions of their expansions?

Thanks again for helpful input. It´s what I sensed, that the songwriting and musical inspiration value is in it´s core here, and then, take it to the DAW where one can try all other sorts of samplet instruments. The midi-packs seems handy also as a letning tool, to try out different styles of playin...

Re: EzMix used as VST? And opinions of their expansions?

However, I can wholehertedly recommend EZkeys - great pianos plus very flexible and usable performance engine. I play the piano, but often rely on EZkeys to for a polished "pro" performance, especially if I need something in a specific musical style. Great product!! Have taken a closer look at EZke...

Re: EzMix used as VST? And opinions of their expansions?

Thanks a lot for taking the time to write your opinions. It is really helpful as I get a better sense about it. I am already so much down the rabbit hole with wanting to sculpt things, so there is no way back, but I also like the "simple" approach if it is crafted with enough sophistication. I had a...

Re: Reason 10 BOX really irritated

Strange indeed. If having more computer than one or need to open the song on anothers computer or studio, a dongle is really useful.
Don't see any use buying a box if it only includes a number. Glad I have the dongle as extra backup if Internet are down or on travel.

EzMix used as VST? And opinions of their expansions?

Been ignoring Toontrack EzMIX and EzKeys, as they seemed a bit out of place when using a DAW like Reason with it´s players and not being afraid to tweak ones own effect chains. But, as I looked at these EzMix expansion packs for good price, I saw it has also 2 for Mastering presets and many differen...

Not just another synth that looks like a spaceship in a scifi movie from the 90´s. :) I want a synth of physical modelling, that can be like the nature itself with it´s different elements and laws.

Re: Thinking of Getting a Mac!

Think I read you were interested in buying Logic (as a student)? If so, then take a look at their student offer to pay €200 for both Logic Pro X and Final Cut Pro, it´s almost 2 for the price of 1. Maybe one got something else in the package too (MainStage, dont remember exactly). I think it is a st...

Re: Reason's poor cpu performance

Is this issue of performance just connected to how many VST plugins one use, or is Reason 9.5 in itself behind the other DAWs? That is, if I would only use number audiotracks? I assume we put the same buffer and put the Reason CPU limit to 100% (some say 95% is better because of GPU, but nontheless)...

Yes, Pangea did impress me the most as a separate one. But the combination of all the new devices with Grain and all the possible creative ways, makes it a neat package.

Re: Rack Exstensions are more popular since VST support

I´ve bought a few VST's that I think will not come to RE; as EzDrummer, Softube and a PSP Reverb. Had stopped buying RE´s as I have gone into Logic X pro lately as I was unsure about where Reason were heading. The subscription thing may bring me back a bit to using Reason and RE at least 50% of the ...

Re: POLL: Will you embrace the RE Subcription Model?

Very good option to subscribe. €9 would be enough for me atm, have many already. Some RE I want to be able to use now and then, but dont need so often. A few ones I want to re-trial to see if it suite me now. And with low budget, it´s great not having to wait 6-12 months to maybe see a sale on a new...

"Grain" is where one could spend endless hours of soundshaping which can also inspire new ideas of songs or creating textures in existing songs that lack that background environment.

Re: Reason 10 announced!

Agree with opinion that "Layers" RE should have better been included in the R10 upgrade. To mention Radical Piano as if everyone gets it for free, is not a good move. Many of us have paid quite some for it already, so it is nothing to count in as if it was part of R10 release.
