Got my **** together and made this, using 8 instances of Expanse and a whole bunch of effects (and Kong for drums).

Hope you all like it! Expanse is a really sweet plugin.

So things like this are fine....

Here are my entries

Finally got some free time to play with Expanse, a very complete synth, congrats Blamsoft. Here is my entry, done in a couple hours using mostly presets. No masterpiece, but had to give it a go.

Possibly dumb question, but can we enter more than one song, or is it one entry per person?

There is no song entry limit.

I just want to be safe and ask since I am still a little unsure: are mastering and EQ RE's allowed such as ReQ, Softube Saturation, Cakewalk RE-2A etc?

Yes.

In the rules it says you may use:
"Any Reason native and rack extension Effects and Utilities"

Oh wow, I wish I'd known that when I was working my songs! I spent a good amount of effort trying to make the stock Reason compressor/eq/maximizer combo sound good everywhere (though the SSL compressor is actually pretty decent). The synth itself sounds great, of course.

Hi Guys,
Expanse is, with out a doubt a power house of a synthesizer. I had great fun working with it.
My computer couldn't handle it though. I guess its time for an upgrade
Here is my entry for the competition.
For the first time I worked with vocals (my friend who is an amateur singer did the vocals)
Thanks Noel G. and Blamsoft for this wonderful opportunity. All the best to all the contestants. Enjoy

Here's mine
I used Synchronous as "sidechain" hope that's allowed:)

Don't have time to finish the mix before the demo run out but I submit it anyway hehe..

Here's my entry

With 66 entries and counting, it looks like it will take some time to pick winners. I wonder if the introductory price will be extended to allow the non-winners to take advantage of the sale. There are some great entries in this challenge, so I feel I need to have a trigger finger on the BUY button just in case.

To answer your question:
