From a development point of view that means the coders need to spit out around two major feature upgrades per week!
What ya all think, can PH keep up or is the challenge to big?
A 1h launch promo:
10 features? That's wildly optimistic. I think it's more likely that it'll just be HDPi support + one of their mediocre REs like Umph or Layers.Luxuria wrote: ↑21 May 2019Seeing this makes me a bit aggravated actually. Maybe it's time I jump ship. I've thought about being more vocal around here, but honestly I don't think anyone at Pheads is going to address the slow progress or even hint at what we can expect for 11. Some of the community here will either spin the studio one update as a negative or spin the lack of updates in reason as a positive. I bet you Reason 11 doesn't add more than 10 features in total at launch.
Whatever though. To each their own.
My guess is we'll get at least another big new synth with 11 but probably more. I know people who've been using Reason for a while are probably all synth'ed out by now, but IMO Europa and Grain (and to a lesser extent Synchronous and Drum Sequencer) were huge draw cards for users NEW to Reason. I still remember the hype when when Europa came out, people proclaiming it to be competative to Serum etc.Ermitage wrote: ↑22 May 201910 features? That's wildly optimistic.

S1 doesn't have parallel midi fx. You're looking at a multi-instrument. Basically the same thing you can do with a combinator in Reason.diminished wrote: ↑22 May 2019Why can they have parallel MIDI FX and we only have Players that run in series? @02m38s
Parallel MIDI FX seems to make sense only to use the same MIDI data (clips) to be adjusted by said FX and played by different instruments. I think you can already achieve that using CV Player Tap or similar device?diminished wrote: ↑22 May 2019Why can they have parallel MIDI FX and we only have Players that run in series? @02m38s
Hmmm that'd be one usage, but I'm thinking more of: play an arpeggio in C1 and do chords in C3-5, then randomly alter notes according to the scale in these chords..antic604 wrote: ↑22 May 2019Parallel MIDI FX seems to make sense only to use the same MIDI data (clips) to be adjusted by said FX and played by different instruments.

I see - thanks for explaining. It sure looks like that, though.. and I wish it was a thing!QVprod wrote: ↑22 May 2019S1 doesn't have parallel midi fx. You're looking at a multi-instrument.

So why would you need parallel MIDI FX for that? Just have the arpeggiator "listening" to the chords and generate arp notes accordingly?diminished wrote: ↑22 May 2019Hmmm that'd be one usage, but I'm thinking more of: play an arpeggio in C1 and do chords in C3-5, then randomly alter notes according to the scale in these chords..
That would alter the incoming midi stream and play arp only.antic604 wrote: ↑22 May 2019So why would you need parallel MIDI FX for that?

I see what you mean. I started as an audio engineer and worked my way into becoming a musician by joining a choir group and learning the piano. So I am definitely pushing for more engineering tools similar to Pro Tools.QVprod wrote: ↑21 May 2019I think they're serving very different audiences. Also, I don't these updates are as big as the seem. I watched the stream live earlier today and the new midi features put me to sleep while the audio additions (which are the majority of the new features) had me more excited. It's a hard comparison. Depends on your perception or needs. I just don't see Reason ever being a strong competitor for audio editing/engineering . It doesn't seem to fit with the design philosophy of Reason imo. Even back when Record was released, the tagline was that it was made for "musicians, not audio engineers" This particular update is huge for people from Pro Tools and Logic backgrounds but take that away and I don't think the average Reason user is missing out on much. I use them both and love them both for what they're best at.
Reason 1 came out in 2001, version 6 in 2011. Presonus's Studio One version 1 came out in 2009. They added multi track MIDI editing in version 2 in 2011. Still wouldn't call what reason has multi track.guitfnky wrote: ↑22 May 2019drag their feet? they’ve been making huge improvements aimed precisely toward reworking Reason as a DAW with every release since Reason+Record, including a number of free improvements in between the major (paid) version releases. version 6 (the paid update) was even a “pay what you want” upgrade. the expectation that they can just flip a switch and all of a sudden, Reason is a fully-fleshed out DAW comparable to others that have been on the market for years without going through an iterative process of gradual improvements is ludicrous.
Reason wasn’t built to be a DAW. turning it into one without throwing away all the stuff that made it stand out isn’t a simple, or quick process.
