I did zero, hydronexius, and korde. Also picked up mingler along with korde, which I don't believe was on sale. $219. Almost bit on that ridiculous bucket brigade jp bundle, and almost bit on the korde bundle + propulsion, but I stopped myself. Didn't want to spend nearly $400 bucks today, I haven't even had that much time to sit down in reason recently between school and work and fallout4

PX7 and Tres. And i have to say i am so happy to have bought Tres. Man, i was missing out. This is probably the Synth with the most bite i have in my arsenal. Also the combi patches are really great.

I am a bit overwhelmed by the 200k Refill for Parsec (already got the slim version). Too much stuff. Hard to find the exceptional patches in there. But i love that it is so low on cpu. Have tried FM4 which sounded great but omg it ate my cpu.

Boom 808 bundle. I need to stop now :mrgreen:

Boom 808 - 29 €
step sequencer - 19 €

bundle - 31 €

so: boom 808 - 29 €
step sequencer - 2 €!

As it is now, I can't play a new key while holding another. And while in latch mode, you have to wait for the entire chord/note to ring out before the next one can be played. Unless I'm missing something there...
You are right, you cannot play two single strums at the same time (i think you mean single notes because i don't see much logic on hitting multiple chord strumss at the same time??).

But for single notes, i guess you could create 2 A-Lists. It's a Ram burden, but you could record your performance to an audio track and then delete the single note a-lists.
Sorry for the confusion.
I'm simply looking for better playability with the single hits. I don't need multiple strums or multiple notes to sound at the same time. I just want it to feel more natural when I play on the keyboard. Whereas now, if I play a key too soon before releasing the other, the new note/strum will not be triggered/played.

You gave me an idea though... I thought Distributor might come in handy for now using multiple units (where it alternates between two). However, when I hook up a Distributor, give it MIDI focus and hit any key; both A-Lists go to 'silent' and are stuck there. Not sure why. I might be overlooking something.

Yes its how I thought... you do not insert chords with cv, so when you have distributor connected select the chords they are going into alist trough cv. Idea: create a combi and in the programmer define different layers for the distributor and the 2 alists. That way what you do with one hand will be sent as cv by the distributor and you can keep doing chords with the other hand.

People, Ill tell you what'fer… after 'going outside', going 'Analog' (Roland, Korg, Blocks, n Pots, Pans), and getting my ears 'straight', REason's Pots and Pans STILL gives that … niceness - and systematic COntrol… to it all.

Thanks to ALL the RE developers who get REs! You have my $$ so you know…

And it sounds great !!!
My opinion is that Propellerhead REASON needs a complete rewrite!
P.S: people should stop saying "No it won't happen" when referring to a complete rewrite of REASON. I have 3 letters for ya....VST

Piano lessons (birthday gift)

Still unsure about what to buy. I'm thinking I'll just buy some Samplemagic packs.

edit: bought Vinyl & Tape Drum Machines
double edit: caved in and bought Propulsion. Time to retire Redrum.

REQ131
AS-16 Analog Sequencer
Ladder Multi-Mode Filter

Also picked up some Toontrack stuff for Cubase (Rock Solid, Rock and Made of Metal because it was just too cheap not to!)

Hah! Naaa, those still look like shit IMHO. But the device sounds sweet, and I've already used it on my bass guitar in a track I'm working on, so it paid for itself in the first 15 minutes of me owning it. :)

Ah, well to each their own I guess.

I feel it makes them unique and feel more like real gear in the rack. Their Silverline has never been rack-mountable lol, thus rack ears must be installed :) It's a nice size for an effects unit and sits nicely in an Insert section. Gives separation.

For reference, here is the Devastor2 VST on top of the RE:

1 more rack unit larger while maintaing rack dimensions and UI layout gives you this:

Sorry, not trying to get a debate going...I know I started it back up lol. Just saying I want D16 to give us all their plugins as quickly as possible without the Rack Extension format seeming like a huge pain to them and an exception to the norm in more ways than necessary.

Congrats on your purchase and track! :)

After a brief props website outage, I finally pulled the trigger and bought Antidote and Devastor 2.

Time to play!
