Re: Announcing Reason 13

The most desirabe thing for me as for RRP fan would be ability to VST hosting inside RRP, dang would be really good. Otherwise, amazing modulation tricks topic (for VST) just not covered with rrp, unfortunately. Only inside Reason. Up until now I try to use Reason as a DAW to get more used to it. E...

Re: Blamco Equalizer Pack vs Red Rock Equivalents

IIRC parameters in the blamsoft devices cannot be automated or set as a destination in a combinator whereas the others' parameters can. Also like everything blamsoft make, the devices in their eq bundle are quite cpu intensive. Yeah, at the moment I tend toward the Kuassa one too. Seems to be more ...

Re: Blamco Equalizer Pack vs Red Rock Equivalents

I'm in the same boat (not yet decided), and I have tested the candidates (also e.g. Kuassa EVE MP-5) with Bertom EQ Curve Analyser (https://bertomaudio.com/eq-curve-analyzer.html). The Blamco Program EQ was so far the only one that gave me nasty artefacts on the diagram: Screenshot 2024-05-19 at 14...

Re: Announcing Reason 13

I'm curious how many users know that velocity ramps are already built into the software (by holding control with the pencil tool in the velocity editor). You'd never discover this without reading the manual or being told by someone. Holding shift to affect only the selected notes is even more obscu...

Re: Blamco Equalizer Pack vs Red Rock Equivalents

I would suggest to also look at Kuassa's AT-bundle, also currently on sale. Those give you a few more EQ-options. They don't have the low+high cut filter, but the Red Rock one is free anyway. I've never seen the Blamsoft EQ bundle on sale for at least the last few years. Perfect! More choices. :thu...

Blamco Equalizer Pack vs Red Rock Equivalents

Just to make it clear: Both seem like excellent choices. I admire both developers for their dsp programming skills. But if you have to choose one over the other, what would it be? . RRS_PEQS.jpg . Blamco_PEQS.jpg . Right now the Red Rock devices are on sale for a total of EUR 27,00 (~ USD 30,00) her...

Re: Synapse Audio The Legend HZ has arrived.

Does anyone know if I buy the Legend HZ now, will they be able to do the same when the RE version comes out... I think it's harder doing it "that way" due to the nature of the Reason Shop... I think they (can) only do it from RE to VST. I bought The Legend VST years ago. Last year I bought Obsessio...

Re: Announcing Reason 13

Decompressing and Decoding Compressed Audio Files takes additional computational work if done in real-time, unless the DAW converts Compressed Files to WAV on import. Cubase will convert compressed files on import, for example. So will WaveLab. Samplitude Pro X defaults to doing this. Lots of DAWs ...

Re: Announcing Reason 13

... Converting samples to FLAC isn't really something I'd personally ever do for a couple of reasons: 1. If you decode them in real time, they use up more CPU than WAV/AIFF files, and 2. While many DAWs do support importing Compressed Audio, many of them will forcibly convert them to WAV - so, you ...
