As SDKs progress, and older REs become outdated, will their prices drop?

I'm a bit baffled, too, Mart.  I don't think they fully understand what I am trying to say.  Many of my REs are STK1, and I do love them, but by the time STK 4 and 5 roll around, who knows how much those formats will allow REs to do.  It won't make these early REs perform any different, but in compa...

As SDKs progress, and older REs become outdated, will their prices drop?

No they don't function any differently.  But as technology (SDK) advances, the older REs will be outdated, similar to the way Reason 1 is outdated compared to Reason 8.  Reason 1 doesn't function any differently, but who wants to buy it for full price when you can have Reason 8, and all its features...

As SDKs progress, and older REs become outdated, will their prices drop?


Do you guys foresee any RE developers dropping the prices of their older, outdated REs based on SDK 1 and 2.... say once SDK 3, 4, 5, etc are released?
I could see it happening.  Who would want an old, outdated RE unless the price is made more attractive?

PX-7 Operators Must Need Additive Waveforms( Title Edited )

Don't use a hammer to paint the wall.  You have to use PX7 for FM synthesis, nothing more.  If you don't like FM synthesis, then you are correct, PX7 is worthless (to you) because that is what it does.  Personally, I love Px7 and use it all time.  I find it to be quite valuable and am continually s...

HOW do you Select the MIDI input from the RACK?

That's a great idea, kloeckno .  I think it will solve my issue. polardozer , you must first set up your MIDI device in the preferences.  Reason has the drivers for many common devices loaded already.  Just enter the make of your device and search for it.  Then you have to enable it.  Then you have ...

Euclid has been updated to now include pitch (notes). YAY!!! Great update! Thank you Robotic Bean. } So you can now use it to run other instrument devices. I thought about using Euclid to control AutoTheory, so I can get chords from it. The result is pretty cool. You need to have Euclid set to "rece...

Tip: program the on-screen keyboard to the scale/key of your song

Here's a fun tip for beginners (or advanced, who hadn't thought of it yet). What you can do with Reason's on-screen keyboard is program the number pad (10 key) on your keyboard to the scale or key of your song (using -> preferences/advanced). For instance, say your song is in C minor, set the defaul...

AutoTheory for drums

I just thought about using AutoTheory like this tonight and hooked it up. I'm pleased with the results. I think it's a pretty cool way to get some experimental new drum beats and fills. Play around with the knobs to get different variations. The NNXT/Combinator drum set range is set from C-2 to B3. ...

HOW do you Select the MIDI input from the RACK?

My MIDI keyboard has track select buttons, which work well for this issue, but I have no solution when I am away from my keyboard and using the on-screen keyboard.  I can't believe they haven't fixed this glaringly obvious issue.  It seems pretty obvious and basic to allow the selected device to rec...

Hmmmm...... so nobody has any tricks or workarounds for this issue?  Dang it.  I was hoping I was just missing something.  Looks like it's just a shortcoming of Reason's "workflow"?

Well said Ostermilk and Selig.  I agree.  Let's focus on the positive and make this place better than PUF ever was.  I am hopeful that at least with some good moderators we can keep this place civil and have fewer flame wars.

You can change which instrument/device is controlled by the MIDI input in the sequencer window by clicking on the device track or moving up/down with the arrows.  Is there a way to do the same thing while in the rack view window?  You can select the active device by using the up/down buttons, but it...
