(it's a very long list)

Some of my favorite changes/additions:
- Note Tool and Random Tool players (very useful!)
- Auto split/chop notes and clips
- custom tags for devices and patches

[Loque]

Tags for devices... Finally

Export of tags for RE... Hopefully a few devs will update their RE

Very nice update Surprised that it includes new midi players, which is always welcome.
I might switch to R13 soon if it continues like this.

Sounds like everyone whose been waiting for device favorites to return will be happy!

Niceee

Wow, this is much more exciting than the bug fix updates we been used to. Feels like a welcome Christmas gift. Glad I upgraded.

I really like the custom device tags. I've categorised by things like era, synthesis type and genre. So if I wanna make 80s synthwave or 70s yacht rock I've got all my authentic devices to hand. And I've put my common go-to's (Kontrol/Kontakt, Nexus, Analog Lab, etc.) in Favourites for quicker access.

Yeah it's really great and it is so much better than having to use favorites lists as a workaround before. Now we can tag to group devices and favorite actual favorites! It's so much faster to find things.

The improved search is such a lifesaver. Anyone agree?

I can finally uninstall R12 now I can quickly find my favourite effects again. Mission accomplished.

Yes, the tags are actually better than the old favourites because you can give something that doesn't just fall into one category (e.g. Pulveriser) multiple tags.

Nice release, and perfect timing, my (almost) 3 weeks x-mas holiday starts tomorrow.

Custom tags are so welcome, and the 2 new players are a very nice extra!

[Arjanders]

Compliments for the team. The given solution to quick find the right device is such an improvement! Very happy with it!

100%. This is a fantastic point update by RS in general. I hope they know the hard work they put in to this is appreciated. Well done guys!

[dan_g]

that might be the update for me to pull the trigger on 13

[kurtg]

Great update guys

Hi new guy! I don't think anyone in their right mind would disagree!

And yeah - custom tags instead of the limited Favorites list is such a better approach, IMHO. Some of the tags i've come up with... lmao... just lovely.

I will say that I still HATE how the new browser is locked to one window. For people like me on multiple displays, this is stupid and I hate it and it makes me sad. RS: PLEASE FIX. But I don't want to rain on the parade - 13.1 is such a improvement!

[Noise]

Finally, version 13 is out.

Congrats to the RS to pull this off. Great work!

Also as someone who's asked for MIDI preview with arrow nudging for the LONGEST time, I'm very happy with this. I do a lot of noodling around on the laptop on the couch, and dragging things around with the trackpad is just hell. Now I can zip through it with arrow keys and get ideas in place in half the time, with almost none of the RSI

Fixed a bug where keyboard focus was lost when browsing Combinator Patches (Windows)

THIS. This one right here. This bug alone (that was present in 13 since launch) almost made Reason completely unusable for me, and seeing it fixed is like a breath of fresh air. My workflow has always been to browse presets using my QWERTY keyboard, and the moment you hit a Combi - this would break. I can't tell you how happy I am to see this finally fixed!
