Propellerhead & RS are very good when it comes to UI and it shows once again.
I think most of you know https://www.plogue.com/products/chipsynth-ops7.html as a possible alternative

The dev should find some graphics designer to get good looking and inviting UI design...

Yes, those golden knobs are awful. And the black ones too. The overall design isn’t balanced.
They’ve just spoiled the px7 design

So, it is basically Friktion-2 :puf_bigsmile: All this time I was thinking along the lines of Yamaha's VL-1... https://youtu.be/myc3FM43Ns8 Or even the VP-1... https://youtu.be/C5OA0KHgekI The promise of « new sounds with quality of acoustic ones » was there with the VL-1 at the time. Hyper instrum...

I'm sure Complex-1 is fun if you understand what you're doing. But for me (a real dummy when it comes to technical stuff) the experience is I try to turn a bunch of different knobs and for the most part nothing happens because I don't understand enough to use it. Especially when starting from scrat...

The one thing missing from Reason that I’ve asked for is a truly modular synth. Like a modular cmb, or a modular page similar to Bitwig’s grid, where you can add as many oscillators , filters, lfo’s etc as your heart, mind and cpu can handle. Complex-1 is nice but sometimes you want just a few more...

At least when Thor was announced months before it’s release, we had James Bernard at Namm playing with it. Now, we have an insignificant video with insignificant people. Waste of ressources and time ?

TAL J-8
MiniFreak V
Next RS synth !

I think it’s controlled with the mod wheel ?

Please god no! I really do not understand the draw of that synth or FM in general. DX was a nightmare to program and the results were not worth the time consumed and the sounds that came out of that monstrosity was like a barrel of cats being drowned mostly :lol: Back in the day, the critique was t...

There are a LOT of errors and major omissions. I guess it kind of enlightened me, not about Reason, but about how incomplete or incorrect his other videos, about DAWs I'm less familiar with, probably are.

Exactly my thoughts

Thank you for your answers and advice ! I’ll spend some more time to learn about comb filters !

Hi ! I’ve got hard time at using the comb delay in Complex-1. Whereas I find it easy to have a « nice » phasing or low rumbling resonances with the comb filter in Thor, I’m not able to obtain controlled sounds from the comb delay in Complex-1. Are those « combs » different beasts (and I should let d...

Is €36 for Softube Model 84 a no brainer if I've already got the TAL one? Edit: Bought. No brainer :) Bought it too :lol: I’ve said to myself to only use the Reason’s synths (to make my own sounds and be focused) and wait for the next RS one, but with every dev making great synth at such low price,...

I’m not the one who asked the question, but I see all the knobs in the output section looking washed out compared to the other knobs, as if they are inactive. I got this wonderful Player to take advantage of the sale but have not had the chance to figure out ever feature, and assumed that section w...

I’ve always found that Europa’s Reason’s Microfreak on steroids ! Each time I come across a Micro and Minifreak vidéo, I fire up Europa and then I’m glad RS has done it !

I just tried to reproduce by creating a new song, adding a RRP with few parameters. I close the song and bitwig. I reopen, the parameters name are still there and correct. Do you want me to try something else ? Thank you ! So in Bitwig it’s ok. It must have something to do with the « init / loading...

When creating devices, names are « ok » (with the less than adequate naming rules) in Live. It’s when I reopen a song which contains automation that the names are replaced with generic names paramxxx. If owners of Logic and Bitwig (and other DAWs) have time and envy to verify the problem exists in ...

It seems MMM is no more the annual sale to wait for…

Even in V collection to some degree. I think patch designers are often creatures of habit and tend to create similar presets across different synths. It’s obvious when you use Analog Lab : synths are not what differ from one sound to the other, it’s all determined by the kind of preset (some say th...

Logic is able to recognize and display the names of parameters in each device. Unfortunately, since it lists them alphabetically and also lists Param #### for the unidentified ones, any device using a patch with a name that follows "P-a-r-a-m" alphabetically (such as the Monotone patch Pulse Bottom...

These ideas are good and somewhat « logical » when thinking (rightly) that REs are on part with VST. But RRP makes things more complicated : it’s a shell for instruments and or FXs and there’s no way to « move » from one device to the other except using the mouse. With VSTs you use the « native » D...

Since using RRP with another DAW is one of the "advised" way to experience the Reason Rack, I'd like to share some thoughts about why RRP is not exactly the same as using the rack inside of reason itself. Automation (and remote ctrl) parameter names there’s what seems to be a bug in that the name of...

Does it offer something more compared to than i just add a little bit saturation on The Echo or add some dirty plugin in the feedback loop or output? I mean, what is tape? Compression, saturation, EQ? Add it and you are fine. I grabbed it and like it a lot. It's very dubby, the tape glitch function...

Good idea actually... I ++ this one. They could have a blank rack or even still a few stuffs like Subtractor and thor, some effects also like scream and the echo, to give appetite and for the people really being able to test.... And then again more patches using this raw power with combinator 2. It...
