Haas Mixer in the shop

Disclosure: I'm at best an amateur musician, but professionally I'm a clinical neurologist and academic neurophysiologist. Physiologically, we know quite a bit about mammalian audio circuitry thanks to the noble sacrifice made by hundreds of owls. Owls... mammals? Of course Owls are Mammals, no?  T...

Rewire 2 bidirectional Midi

I sent a support ticket, asking if they can name a DAW that has implemented bidirectional Midi. This really interests me but i doubt such a DAW exists. I guess you could also sign up as Developer to get access to the Rewire API which may help in interfacing Max with Rewire. It's kind of why I'm not...

Rewire 2 bidirectional Midi

What do the Props mean when they say Rewire 2 has bidirectional Midi? At least thats what the Reason 7 manual says. Now i wonder how that looks like and which DAW actually implements this. Did anyone ever get in contact with bidirectional Rewire Midi? I've been using bidirectional midi since Reason...

Haas Mixer in the shop

I watched the video a few more times, and I see what you mean.  My method mentioned above is only what I thought was the haas effect.  I basically use it for thickening single vocal tracks. You actually described how to create the Haas or Precedence effect perfectly well. The differences are how an...

multi-tracking drums

Okay, so I want to record my friend playing drums... I want to mic each drum separately, and send them each to separate tracks in REASON so I can fiddle with them however I want. I have a Mackie 1220 mixer, and I found this thing on ebay... would this achieve what I want to do? I'm kind of a noob a...

Codemeter Runtime Service slows down startup

I disable the Codemeter startup at boot time as it runs fine whenever I first start Reason and Windows isn't thrashing around trying to get everything else going at boot time.  Also I figure if I'm not running Reason during a particular session of uptime then I clearly don't need the Codemeter servi...

Creative Soundblaster ZxR Asio Internal PCIe Sound card - review

If Creative/E-Mu have managed to make an ASIO driver that actually plays nicely with one of their cards on a 64 bit Windows box that would be something of an advance from them. This  doesn't engender much faith in me that much has changed there. Probably a great gaming card, with all those 'sound en...

RE permanent removal (even if I paid money for them).

I think a simple checkbox to ignore a Sync request on the device on the account page is something lacking currently. I'm sure all of us have got some freebies that just take up menu space in Reason when they are downloaded as well as some paid ones that may no longer be used. That way you wouldn't l...

This new EU rules are killing small electronic businesses... I guess you will be better off cutting the deal with Propellerhead and let them sort the VAT part for you.   It is? You could read the link to Taxamo I showed earlier and use a service like that which would cost you as little as 0.02% up ...

But even then you are thinking of analogue audio being sent directly down a cable.  This is data cabling going to and from Network Attached Storage and a Router according to the examples given in the copy, you'll end up with bit perfect results with any standard ethernet cable, up to a hundred giga...

Cable is an RC filter itself. If it is asymmetrical in resistance or capacity throughout its length, it will give different response. Yes, a cable does have resistance, and capacitance, but if they exist in any amount where the changes to the signal are non-linear*, you should get a different cable...

Because what would you plug it into? :) High impedance line output to headphone. You could if you wanted to be pedantic about it think up all sorts of uni-directional applications, even a standard UK mains cable will create spectacular results if you were to wire it up the wrong way round.

I was looking for an example of a cable that was unidirectional, which is what you described in your earlier posts - any examples come to mind? :) I have many cables with convertors inside, usb, hdmi and similar stuff. But it still doesn't matter which way you plug the low-pass cable in, it will ha...

There should be a Reason Pinball Game (physical or software)

Man I thought I'd aged an extra 10 years.

I think you'll find that was 1992, 1982 Lunar Lander on the Vic20 would have been more likely.
