Thought it would be interesting to find out when people will upgrade to Reason 12.

You are missing the option "I will upgrade once I have the money"

Voted, although my full version would be "When it is on sale and they have squashed the main bugs and perhaps when they have added something else like VST3 or maybe just when it is on sale and I am feeling drunk or reckless or when I click the wrong button."

But that might be a bit too specific for your poll. :lol: :lol: :lol:

You forgot about fully implemented vst2.4 midi pass through/routing is on the todo list but still hasn't been done

I'll upgrade after my 333 R+ runs out in Nov. Hopefully we'll see a sale before my subscription runs out.

Non of the options fit me.
The choice of new features are fine for me personally. That's not my issue.

I will probably upgrade once I know that the people who have upgraded aren't experiencing any slowdown in workflow, longer loading times, performance issues or other annoying bugs.
I want to make sure all the potential problems are sorted out before I upgrade.
Not gonna be a R12 guinea pig. I tried that when R11 Suite was released. Let's just say I'm never doing that again. Horrendous experience, before they sorted it out.

Thanks. Was about to post the same. Seems like living in Germany is rough these days.

Me too. No point in upgrading while I have access to R+.
Don't hold your breath for a sale before then though, that would make absolutely no business sense for RS.

But it may for a 3rd party vendor. I bought Suite with a huge discount during black friday last year.

Ive saved my 7 day Reason + trial to take R12 for a spin before committing to upgrading. A lot of performance issues have me holding back. Also I dont like how the HD zoom affects the whole thing when its the rack that neede it the most. Hopefully they change that.

I'll wait until there is an update. It sounds like an unstable/unfinished version from what people are saying about it.

I will upgrade when Reason offers Native Mac M1 support.

Wish there was a 'not sure yet' option because it is the first day of release and I'd like to see how the version evolves once bugs are ironed out and people have explored the new features fully in a month or two.

Gonna wait until BF… 2022? 🤣

There won’t be a sale on this until next summer at the very earliest.

I’m looking at about 2 weeks until I can swing it. I’m busy AF so that works out fine for me.

Considering the new features - not a bad option IMHO.

In theory once VST3 is available. For a while it’s the one thing I’ve wanted the most from Reason. Though, in practice the decision to upgrade depends on a few conditions, such as Propellerheads having sorted out the worst of launch issues in version 12. The final version of Reason 11 is delightfully stable.
