I dunno, but maybe it means you need to own and register a copy of Reason 9 or Reason Essential 9 in order to test 9.5.Gulale wrote:why i'm i getting this for beta testing?

Sorry, in order to join the beta testing you need to own and register a copy of Reason 9 or Reason Essentials 9.
Just out of interest have you tried RsTouch? This is really the closest you're gonna get to what you want. There's really no way that one physical device could ever accommodate every possible Reason device, stock or otherwise. How would a single page controller for Thor work? And how would it adapt to ReDrum, or Parsec, or NN-XT? RsTouch is a great solution to this IMO. Any controller that came even close to this would probably cost at leas as much as an iPad Air 2 or Pro + a compact audio/MIDI interface, so might as well just get one of those and then you can have a more tactile interface. Plus a sweet tablet haha. You can even sequence ReDrum with it! Which is pretty damn cool. Just an idea. I know it's not quite knobs and faders but it's the closest you'll get for nowChizmata wrote:
i can agree so much on many of that. fact is, we dont know how far a different approach would have taken props. maybe every pure electronic musician would have reason at home as his standard tool now, while recording guys still never heard of it. the risk when you widen your approach is to lose the core and not really attract the rest too much - and also lose quality in what initially made you big, while youre always behind trying to adapt to other DAWS strenghths.
quoting myself on the analogue thing:
i would have wished for something more dedicated than nektar panorama. lets say something that has enough, faders, knobs and buttons to theoretically completely control any existing reason device without switching modes or layouts. on top there could be a digital display naming each knobs and faders function depending to which device you switch.
I think now the focus is squarely back on Reason, and once people cross over and start dipping their toes into the modular world their minds will be blown. Maybe once a few videos surface of what's possible with 9.5 you might feel differently. Never say never!as said i didnt like 9 from the start and im closer to downgrading to 5 or 6 than upgrading at any pointchimp_spanner wrote:Just out of interest have you tried RsTouch?

Losing the core user has always been a risk - I felt they came close to doing that for a while, back when Reason wasn't even prominent on the website and everything was about singer-songwriters with an acoustic guitar and a macbook, making music on Figure and Take. That was a dark time

It's available for Reason Essentials too!
I think it will be the opposite. Rack Extensions have some very clear and distinct advantages over VSTi's, because they were purpose built for that environment. Take a look at something like VK-2 that just came out. All that rear panel goodness, audio rate modulation direct to oscillators, total flexibility over CV routing. For many VST users the closest they've gotten to that has been Reaktor, and even then Reaktor can only interact with itself. Yeah I have no doubt a lot of people are gonna head straight for the Serums and the Massives. But they'll also have access to a huge selection of instruments that no other DAW has, that can do things that no other plugins can do outside of entirely self contained environments like Reaktor!altron wrote:Good for the VSTi world. Most likely the grave digged for RE development.
Agree completely about the zoom - really is frequently requested feature and one that many VST's do beautifully i.e. SpireeXode wrote:Reason 10 (or X) seriously needs device zoom or some sort of HD resolutions for the rack. That should be #1 priority IMHO. A dark theme for the SSL mixer would be pretty darn sweet too.
You're a crazy man!! Haha, hey you gotta do what you gotta do. Like your tunes btw, especially the dark techno stuff. I'm in love with Cyberpunk right now and some of your stuff puts me in mind of that. I guess if you can already make what you want with what you have, keep doing that. Newer isn't better for everyone.Chizmata wrote:

Yes same here! any suggestions of a good vst sampler?danc wrote:One thing I've been awaiting in Reason for a long time is a much more advanced sampler - beyond NN-XT which has served me well, but always feel like I'm fighting it rather than working with it (especially on the splitting up of samples across the keyboard). VST could be my route to making this happen. There are plenty of really strong and well-supported VST sample players/editors to choose from.
The question is - Who cares yes and thx a lot! in germany we have a saying "hinten kackt die ente" if you can make a sense of itchimp_spanner wrote:You're a crazy man!!

I'm just waiting to hear if it's okay to release pictures but I can tell you it does exist!friday wrote:He Chimp Spanner , can you post pictures with the manual delay compensation built in to the mixer, please???chimp_spanner wrote:Holy sh*t guys it works. It's real. And it's awesome.
it has a pig of an interface but TX16Wx is probably the best freeware sampler you can download right now. it also has a premium version with some additional features. it depends what you're looking for though.Marc Swing wrote:Yes same here! any suggestions of a good vst sampler?danc wrote:One thing I've been awaiting in Reason for a long time is a much more advanced sampler - beyond NN-XT which has served me well, but always feel like I'm fighting it rather than working with it (especially on the splitting up of samples across the keyboard).

Not saying I've used any of these but there's Izotope Iris, TAL Sampler, UVI Falcon and Kontakt.Marc Swing wrote:Yes same here! any suggestions of a good vst sampler?danc wrote:One thing I've been awaiting in Reason for a long time is a much more advanced sampler - beyond NN-XT which has served me well, but always feel like I'm fighting it rather than working with it (especially on the splitting up of samples across the keyboard).
