This is a bold move. They are pushing people towards other DAWs. For multi-DAW users, there is no way to use Reason as a scratch pad and then finish the piece somewhere else.EnochLight wrote: ↑26 Aug 2019ReWire is being deprecated as of version 11, but you can still open your current version of Reason in your DAW of choice to access any ReWire projects. Reason allows installations of older versions concurrently on the same machine.
that's total bullshit. just because it's not in the list of most-used DAWs doesn't mean it's not a competent DAW. it had most of the major features most of us are still griping about not being in Reason back in 2010 when I was using it.
the point of putting rewire in ( ) was that now it is Rack plugin instead
I agree.Creativemind wrote: ↑26 Aug 2019Don't understand why many things are left unfinished in Reason though before they start adding more stuff. They add things and then just leave them. It's like they go, that's it, that's done, never touching the code for that again, even after many requests, let's look:-
Reason 11 improvements are a joke. The latest free update of Ableton Live Lite (10.1) was better and included more new features. You really don't see that for those who don't want the VST rack it's a terrible update for 129€?DParris wrote: ↑26 Aug 2019Wow, reading some of these complaints you'd think that music didn't actually exist in physical reality until some DAW finally introduced midi chase and high-res graphics.
Really, Reason was perfectly capable of pushing your music out into the air a million versions ago. Workflow improvements are welcome conveniences. But until we have cerebral implants that convert neural impulses directly to sound, there will always be a need mold your working habits to the quirks of your tools.
There was already more in Reason 10 than any of us will ever use individually. The improvements in 11 are genuinely useful. Quit whining and make some music.

What are you talking about? Reason is still a great tool, but this update is a joke for € 129 if Reason is your main workspace.DParris wrote: ↑26 Aug 2019
Some perspective: I'm a full-time working composer and arranger. Years ago I remember getting a welcome update to my notation software. It made a small but noticeable difference in my speed and efficiency. I wouldn't want to go back.
But in the old software, I wasn't constantly missing deadlines for submitting scores and parts. If I did miss a deadline, it was always my fault, and never the software's fault. I still made music, and lots of it. In fact, I've always found a way to make music no matter what means I had available. Imagine that!
In other words, a poor craftsman blames his tools.
I'm looking forward to upgrading, and then to making more music.
Lol... Danny Elfman uses DP. It's been used on big budget movies. I don't know which multiverse you live in where Fl Studio and Bitwig are big boys compared to DP and Samplitude. They are niche DAWs but very capable.
