Umm... This is the only bass guitar RE that exists. Not understanding the comparison of synth bass to bass guitar. They sound very different, and usually have different use purposes. Besides... It's just a Rack Extension, not a brand new Reason version.ejanuska wrote: ↑13 Jul 2018I guess I was the only one hoping PH was working on something worthwhile rather than spending time repackaging bass refills into REs.
Honestly, do we need another bass RE? Is this going to supply some new bass sounds? No, it's another plug-in that attempts to create the bass sounds of yesteryear by recording those good old actual bass guitars. There are plenty of REs and VSTs that are much richer sounding then a virtual Fender Jazz through a virtual vintage amp.
I'm a big fan of Papen's SubBoomBassRE. I can great bass sounds out of that. Even Subtractor has great bass sounds. Is this what happens when you get capital infusions from investors? No more real progress, just repackage shit to keep the money coming in.
Even at $5 I wouldn't buy this.
Yea. It's a weird interpretation/phrasing by PH. "For owners of the ReFill even if unregistered" vs. "You can get this RE cheaper using this code". If there is no control over the purchases made with the code and if the code isn't limited to a time period.
I still can't figure out why this is such a hurdle for them. I will never buy sample based REs.ltbrunt00 wrote: ↑13 Jul 2018I have used the reason bass refill since its initial release and glad to see this in an RE device. I love my refills but in this day in age I look to use my Rack extensions first for quicker manipulation.
At 3.7 GB this is far smaller than almost all of my big VST libraries some which are 70+ GB. I only wish we could install RE's in a different folder location.
With the discount bringing this down to 38 big time hard cold cash dollars this is a no brainier for me. At 99 dollars this may be a hard sell for those that don't need a new bass instruments.
with that being said I am downloading the trial before spending my 38 big time hard cold cash dollars but will without a doubt I know I am going to enjoy this.
Any chance for a VST version.
I have all my RE's on a different drive, I just use MKLINK..kitekrazy wrote: ↑14 Jul 2018I still can't figure out why this is such a hurdle for them.

Doing what? Propellerhead more than likely makes similar minor updates/fixes the time(we just don't have a list of them, it's probably internal only). If you read that change log from Cockos.. they practically put anything in there! "Bob, I changed the color of a panel!! Update the change log!!" Okay.. bit of tongue in cheek. There are actually some pretty nice updates in those logs.superpop wrote: ↑14 Jul 2018Well Cockos is like two guys doing this: https://landoleet.org/whatsnew5.txt
Yep all those updates are bug fixes, not new features. Probably because Cockos only has like 2 people.aeox wrote: ↑14 Jul 2018Doing what?

Really though, you can't compare Reaper to Reason
Yes and no. There's a lot of new features after updates. You can see here: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_ ... +whats+newQVprod wrote: ↑14 Jul 2018Yep all those updates are bug fixes, not new features. Probably because Cockos only has like 2 people.aeox wrote: ↑14 Jul 2018

Ok exaggeration on the word "all" but even those new features are still relatively minor. Especially to what some people seem to expect out of Reason to be upset about a bass RE.superpop wrote: ↑14 Jul 2018Yes and no. There's a lot of new features after updates.

Sorry that I derailed the thread.
How do you know it isnt? I've worked for software companies that had no internal development or support at all, everything was outsourced. They claimed a large staff but it was sales, marketing, finance and legal. You could be right but there is no transparency. The RE model allows for outsourcing of code extensions on a shared revenue basis or one time fee, the lack of feature development on the core package suggests they dont have a huge internal team. The last release was basically all extensions. The problem with maturity in software is the innovators always leave for bright shiny new stuff (or better money), and nobody understands or cares about the legacy code well enough to tamper with it. The problem with outsourcing is maintenance. When you have to raise a purchase order against profit to fix bugs they don't get fixed. This isn't unique. I own Soundforge which is also under new ownership and they just did their "biggest update ever".
If you're hardcore into bass I'd imagine you'd want access to sample zones and reroute the FX.. Which you now no longer can. Refill is the better package (not necessary the UI, just flexibility wise)
