What instrument(s) do you play?
I guess I could make a poll with the most common ones, but I don't want to leave a bunch of instruments out.

Re: Trying out a new system to keep GAS in check
I like the systematic approach. My strategy was to try all-you-can-eat solutions for a while and then go back to using Reason. Not knowing whether you could benefit from something new motivates GAS. We're a curious creature and that uncertainty will drive you to find out through a purchase. The eas...

Re: Trying out a new system to keep GAS in check
It would probably increase my spend. I'd keep using it as an excuse to buy something - "Oh hey, I've accumulate 200 squids of pretend cash. Let's shop!" Yeah I can see how it might not work for everyone. And really I'm not even sure it works for me yet. But I thought I should give this approach a t...

Re: Trying out a new system to keep GAS in check
We're all different. :puf_smile: My comment wasn't meant serious, hence the smiley :puf_wink: I actually don't suffer from GAS, like, at all. My simple solution to get there, is treating my software studio as if it were all hardware. From that perspective, owning several things that are mostly doin...

Re: Trying out a new system to keep GAS in check
Of course if anyone wants to try this out, you can set one minute of music activity to equal any amount of money you want. Like I said in my case I let one minute of music activity equal 1 SEK. 10 SEK is roughly worth around 1 USD. So, six hours playing around on a weekend 'earns' you the equivalen...

Trying out a new system to keep GAS in check
We all know how easy it is to just continuously buy new stuff, while some of our older music gear purchases might not get used nearly enough (or at all). I’m currently trying out a new system. And I thought I might share it since I figured I'm likely not the only one who has experienced gear acquisi...

Re: Music making should not be taken in a hard way
Yes I agree. It's important to keep it fun and not take music making too seriously. Anytime I've worked on music it has never helped to think "This has to turn out great". I find whenever I make music, a part of me always try to make things sound good/interesting automatically. That's just natural. ...

Re: Announcing Reason 13
I hope these new changes doesn't affect the way favorite lists work. Does anyone who has a better grasp of this know if it will? I use my favorite lists to find my devices all the time. I never scroll down the regular instruments/effects/utilities lists, because a lot of them I never use. To be hon...

Re: Announcing Reason 13
Seems like a pretty good upgrade to me. :thumbs_up: Not sure these particular new features are enough to entice me personally though, but that doesn't mean it's a bad upgrade. Ripley Space Delay looks pretty cool. Still on R11 and I've realized I'm pretty content with what I have. I'll definitely lo...

Re: What did you just buy yourself?
Bought my third udu drum a couple of weeks ago. It's almost like a small collection now. I really like them. This one is called Udu Utar.

Nah don't buy it. It's too dull looking.

Playing around with this track right now. I don't know if anything good will come out of it. Regardless I'm having fun.

Melody. That's a big topic. But an interesting one. :puf_smile: I can only give my own perspective, viewed from how I do things in my own music. So here are some of my thoughts.

Re: The Legend. VST or RE? Also, general wishes re VIs and POLY
I understand limitations can be frustrating at times. Sometimes you have to do workarounds to get to where you want. But for me I to try to embrace an instruments limitations. I've had plenty of moments where an instrument's limitations has force me to go in a new direction I haven't gone before. It...

Re: (Just having fun in Reason) - Metamorphosis
This track is crazy! That guitar part is freaking awesome but also a great intro leading up to it. Straight up headbanger shit and I don't even listen to rock like that. The structure is quite unique like that sudden pad after the drum break is like going from heavy metal to a zen state for a momen...

Nice tune. I especially like the little melodic riff with delay that's panned to the left. :thumbs_up: I typically think all your tracks has cool parts in them. Sometimes I wish there was a little more variation in the tracks though. But I'm not sure if these track are made to have vocals over them...

(Just having fun in Reason) - Metamorphosis
This is me just having fun in Reason, reaching for whatever toy in the rack I feel like at the moment. It's more a disjointed mess than it is an actual track. I do think it's good to just let loose sometimes. Throwing random shit together can sometimes let you stumble over new fun things and ideas. ...
