Can someone help explain how much from a price is counted back as reward points? I do not rmember.
Receive 5% back in Reward Points for every purchase you make in the Reason Studios shop. Once you have accumulated either 25, 50, 75, 100 or 125 Reward Points, you can exchange your Reward Points for discount vouchers which can be applied in the Reason Studios Rewards Store.
:thumbup: Thanks!

So...I have 120 points and am in a choice dilemma.
Do I get Friktion, Algoritim or Complex-1? I've been undecided for days now.
Please spend my points for me :lol:

Friktion. No question. If you don’t get Friktion don’t ask again. Ever.

If I had to choose between all of those, I’d go for Complex-1 myself, but that’s because it’s an awesomely fun modular that does awesome bleep bloop squacks. YMMV…

Let me just go ahead and say the 3rd option. Algoritm!

All 3 are great devices tbh, equally great.
Complex-1 might be the device you get the most out of, this depends if you are an avid cable router mad man.
Here's some livestream I did, showing both Complex-1 and Algoritm to a friend, both seriously wicked sounds with basic sound design.

Thanks for the Reward section being useful. I bought new Bassline player for reduced amount, and Friktion last time for reduced price. Now it is only Pattern Mutator and Algoritm to keep up with RS devices. They are too expensive for me at full price so will have to wait and hope for a sale someday soon…or that reward points will drop from heaven…

I'll put another vote in for Friktion which I also got with reward points :)
This device has a very unique and beautiful sound, but the patches included doesn't do the best job in displaying it IMO.

Some more patches here. Don’t know if they’re any good though.

Tough decision, all three are great. But I'd go with "Friction". I LOVE this synth, it brought me so much joy!

If you'd like to get an idea, what's possible with this magnificient beast, have a listen here. Except the drums, all sounds were made with "Friktion":

Rewards Question...

If I use a 75 Reward voucher to purchase Bass Generator at £64 what happens to the unused 11 points?
Plus if I purchase this RE this way how many Reward points will be added to my account on this type of purchase?

Cheers for any help...

Oh man thanks for the suggestions, I'm leaning towards Algoritim I think because it seems the most sonically versatile :thumbup:

You're welcome! Algoritm is definitely a good choice, you can't go wrong, it is really very versatile. Have fun with it! :)

You lose them. That's exactly what happened when I used my £75 voucher on Bass Generator.

Ok thanks for your reply, how many points were added to your account from Bass Generator?

I swear, I forget every time and say, "hey I have 40 rewards points, cooll!" then I redeem them and remember that everything is 100$ and most of it comes with Reason+. Drives me nuts and my last voucher ended up expiring . I'm sure this one will to. It would be nice to use the voucher towards the subscription cost, but I understand that you want people to spend money, so the rewards are going to be 60$ and up.

It's just frustrating and I'm not complaining, I'm just ... I'm complaining. I've had all the non-RS extensions for years now. Since I pay for Reason+, I dont want to buy stuff again. All I'm saying is that it would be really cool to have a regular old 25$ voucher for the site. Just blanket rewards. It's Christmas.

By the way - Bassline Generator is dope and I may just pay for it twice (R+ and then buy it...)

This device looks like good fun. :thumbup: I'll be grabbing it once my subscription runs out in May.

(in case this isn't the case already) I think all RS devices should just go straight into the rewards section upon release. Will help keep it relatively fresh, and it's not like rewards points are that easy to accumulate.

Indeed. To get a 75 points voucher, you basically have to spend 20 times that amount first, which is a serious lump of cash.

Yes, you lose those 11 points. It's a weird quirk/limitation in the current Rewards setup. I've said here before, I'd like to change it, but I can't promise anything. It's on my radar though, along with the other changes we've already implemented and would like to.
