All I want is MIDI chase. If MIDI chase is implemented in the future, I will stick with Reason forever. If not, I'll have to go to Studio One or Bitwig or something.
Bitwig has native Linux version, which is massive. I'm considering buying it because I am switching more and more from
Windows to Linux.
Also Bitwig has nodes, which is halfway between Logic and Pure Data or the better sibling framework I'm now using, PlugData.
This is the future for Reason and for many artists, PlugData is better than MAX for Ableton and are starting to create more and more
stuff for it. Amazing stuff. Maybe Reason was never intended to become the new Reaktor... but neither Bitwig, and what it-s doing it's
doing it right. Perhaps Reason should copy just a bit of it.
Players had been a massive innovation but we haven't seen a massive outburst of creativity past the initial peak of releases.
PlugData is the missing link between Players and Vst3/Au that Reason is missing IMO.
Bitwig nodes seems to me just another custom Pure Data framework adjusted for ease of use on the end.
