No, he’s talking about actual Reason being ran in a web browser, as was demonstrated in the JUICE tech demo by Magnus (the CTO of Propellerhead).

The best online collaboration software I've ever used was Rocket Network which was intergrated into Cubase. You could rent studio space or use the public studios. I would spend hours on that collaborating with people all over the world, even had a chat box all live. I nly had dial up at the time too...happy days. It was the victim of its own success and got sold to Avid I believe, everyone wanted the fee studio space so it didn't make enough money but the idea lives on.....

Don't make it free or ads based to finance the service if you decide to do it.

If they make it free, who will pay for it? It costs money for bandwidth and infrastructure...

Then what do you suggest? Subscriptions?

Maybe something like SoundCloud Pro? Limited free storage. Only paid users can host lossless files for download.
This was part of the plans I had in fact, I don't know just yet what the limit will be, other than it will be exclusive for RT members.

Isn't there way for people to take care of their own storage, like uploading to a file host such as Google Drive, and making use of that?
There definitely is.
However, I saw Allihoopa as the perfect platform to easily share your songs, ideas, or vocals for others to use. It was the ease of use that were the real kicker for me. Press a button, and it's shared with the world. Uploading to Google drive is not cumbersome, but sharing is not userfriendly in the sense that Allihoopa was. If you have to convert to Mp3 yourself, well, it's a deal breaker for some.
As a collaboration service, Allihoopa didn't work too well - To be a serious contender, multi-track projects would be needed.
What I envision though is a place for people to just upload their wav/aiff bounces, and the service would do the rest, much like Allihoopa. See it as a music sharing service, that may or may not in time turn into RT Radio while browsing the forum ( ) or even a catalogue you can opt in on for serious clients to browse for goodies.
An idea I had was a catalogue of music sorted in genres for Advertisers, Movie firms, companies that needs music for radio commercials/intros/trailers/games to browse, like a shop where you buy a license to use a piece or even purchase exclusive rights from the artist. All made by RT members.
Might as well get that plan rolling with a music sharing service. I'm not trying to compete with SoundCloud or pick up where Allihoopa left off. If I get the tech right and some people can and will use it, then it's fine for me. I'm always trying to evolve as a developer, this is a perfect way for me to dig in to something new.

I'm not familiar with how much of a problem storage and processing power can become (server computers, storing, cooling and powering them, etc.). Perhaps there could be some online tool, which helps do that quickly with our own storage, and takes care of conversion when needed. Only difference would be using 3rd party services. Though I don't know if storages like drive, and online converters are willing to communicate with an online software/tool.Kenni wrote: ↑14 Dec 2018There definitely is.

A radio could be fun, and a stock music -like system could be very useful.
All ideas are welcomed as long as people are willing to support the forum/site. It is a big deal because I am guessing the next Reason update will not have a built in sharing option, OR it will have a different (better?) solution?
Sorry I haven't read all the replies but perhaps the shutdown is more about new Copyright laws in the EU than storage cost? Before you offer such service wait and see how Article !3, etc will disrupt the market. I have a sad feeling only deep pocketed giant corporations will be able to survive (maybe the intended goal all along).

oh, I see. Didn't catch that part in the video yet. So will there be Reason for Linux systems as well? Interesting.EnochLight wrote: ↑14 Dec 2018No, he’s talking about actual Reason being ran in a web browser, as was demonstrated in the JUICE tech demo by Magnus (the CTO of Propellerhead).

No clue - it was just a tech demo showing it was possible, using a similar tech that they used to run Europa in a web browser. The implications are pretty awesome, though!craven wrote: ↑15 Dec 2018oh, I see. Didn't catch that part in the video yet. So will there be Reason for Linux systems as well?

It's great to see where Reason is heading. It's still my DAW of choice and if they keep up these great innovations this is not gonna change. I'd love to see more controlling option via tablet and phone - hopefully the new tech will allow for this. Implications are awesome indeed! I'm really sad about Allihoopa closing, though. It wasn't optimal, but it was very useful as also stated by many others in this thread. Hopefully Props will think of something to make up for this loss.EnochLight wrote: ↑15 Dec 2018No clue - it was just a tech demo showing it was possible, using a similar tech that they used to run Europa in a web browser.

I am truly going to miss Allihoopa. It really was something special. I never understood all the talk about it not being for professionals. I used it professionally. The chat feature was great and I wish it was there sooner as it made my latest collaboration even easier.
It was also great when they updated the terms. Sure, the original terms did make me a bit hesitant at first about sharing some stuff publicly, but I also appreciated the lack of barriers to get involved and have fun. Has anybody else here used another collaboration service? I've used a few, and they are not fun, with very little collaborating going on it seems (certainly not much to be browsed publicly). And that was another fun aspect of Allihoopa; you could browse and listen to a piece and then adventure further to see what other people did with it.
People say they want to share full projects and stems and that is frankly inefficient and a mess. Why do you need to be sharing all of that to get some ideas going and to gauge interest from other artists? With something like Allihoopa, you share files, you chat about it, and then if you want to dive deeper, there’s this thing called email, and Google Drive, and DropBox or whatever. What people imagine as the “real pros” actually bounce simple ideas back and forth, some of them just using voice memo apps to record…and then they meet in a studio.
I would've paid for an Allihoopa membership. It was a great atmosphere.

In the video, skip to the 40:38 part. To be fair, it's more of a thin running Rack Extension running in the browser for the web.

Right, I was just clarifying that - although Reason appears to be running in Chrome in Magnus' demo, he states that the entire thing is just a thinly running RE. There was no demo of transport controls, the mixer, etc.joeyluck wrote: ↑17 Dec 2018Well you can after all already use Europa in a web browser.EnochLight wrote: ↑17 Dec 2018

That's easy enough to implement later. What's clear is that the Reason Engine is running in the browser and all Rack Extensions are supported (even legacy ones like Korg). I wouldn't be surprised if Reason 11 or perhaps Reason 12 is a fully fledged cloud DAW that you can also run locally. That would be a real game changer and would leave Pro Tools, Cubase et al in the dirt.EnochLight wrote: ↑17 Dec 2018Right, I was just clarifying that - although Reason appears to be running in Chrome in Magnus' demo, he states that the entire thing is just a thinly running RE.

Given what Propellerheads have already shown off in the Europa web demo, I would say they're making real strides in leading the industry technically. Proper innovation.
I'm disappointed. Like many I used Allihoopa to listen to my models whether or not.Kenni wrote: ↑14 Dec 2018There definitely is.

This is an option I will miss in Reason.

Oooh, burn!
In actuality, I do know what I"m talking about insofar as what I personally experienced; when I looked around the site, all I saw was blatantly ripped off content and was immediately turned off.
I'm sure there were people genuinely getting together and creating new music and forming awesome partnerships. I'm sure a lot of good stuff was made privately. But the public side was... not a very compelling argument to use it. That's my opinion. You also have an opinion.
