Re: Creating a note repeater with Reason's Players

Not a stock player but I think https://www.reasonstudios.com/shop/rack ... sequencer/ has a chord mode and does what you want. The advantage over Dual Arp is that it is not restricted to any note count of a chord.

Every time a metric like anything above has been tried, it did not go down well. You'd have to actually spend a few years writing code to understand why they're such poor measures of productivity. As a side note - there is a really helpful metric found by Sonar, it is called Cognitive Complexity. W...

Where are you getting the figure of 2GB from? Reason is actually just a meager 43MB program.

Re: Recording MIDI from Redrum into Sequencer

You actually can not AFAIK, maybe I´m wrong - at least not so easy since Redrum does not create any MIDI data while running. But we have Gate CV outs which can be used. Now comes the MIDI loopback trick that basically solves every problem in Reason ;-) You could connect the CV gate out to the MIDI ...

Re: Recording midi to multiple tracks simultaneously?

True. And MIDI loopback is a hack. So what we are missing here is a kind of routing menu in the player stack or on the MIDI track where you can target the MIDI track where you want to send the player MIDI data to. Or a special player device that does this (similar to the MIDI output device). Someth...

Re: Recording midi to multiple tracks simultaneously?

Am I missing something here? I have two MIDI keyboards and I can record MIDI notes on two tracks simultaneously. You have to lock each keyboard to a synth (say Thor and Europa) and then hit record. Playing both at the same time records both. There can be only one active MIDI track but you circumvent...

Finally there is still no way to match how Redrum handles pattern changes relative to the sequencer. That's on RS/PH though as they still haven't figured out a solution for this in their own devices. Can you elaborate on this ? I can't think of what more could be added for pattern changes... Patter...

Super cool! Are there any keyboard shortcuts for the different velocity levels?
Step Velocity is remotable and you if you click on a step and then drag up/down while holding CTRL (Windows) you can decrease/increase the velocity of a step.

Re: mDSQ - Micro Drum Sequencer - is in the shop!

You´ll notice that the individual steps of a part are neither remotable, automatable nor assignable in combinator programmer. And you can only have one note per part. Well, it´s a drum sequencer :-) However, you can also use it as a 16 step note sequencer e. g. in C2. The trick is to use one consecu...

Re: Is it possible to map single keys on my keyboard to mute/solo tracks in the Drum Sequencer?

There is a new mapping source property in combinator 2 programmer which you can use to map a key to a control (e. g. Mute or Solo on Drum Sequencer) on a device inside combinator. It is called "Key". Precondition is that you have a MIDI track for the combinator so your keyboard controller passes MID...

Working at 125bpm is the opposite of inspiring for me. I'm resenting the stuff I'm writing instead of loving it. Not throwing in the towel just yet, but that's definitely low moral.

Yes, Win10 with an Intel Graphics UHD 630 here, it may be related the CPU or GPU 0 3D which is around 30 % all the time in a project with quite a few devices.
GPU decreases if song is not playing, though.

On the +-Side, migration to HD worked astonishly well for all REs. Sure, some RE devs had to fix smaller things and there were some things that had to be fixed by RS themselves but overall the foresight worked out.
