El Capitan has been a Nightmare for me as well buddies, few things I can't help to feel is because I didn't do my compatibility research before upgrading to this shit. The thing was all was compatible under Yosemite but my internet worked every once in a blue moon and that was why I upgraded in the ...

Layering is always gets interesting results for sure, I like the way you explained your process.
The thing I like how I go about it in the Combinator format is that I can save the patch and use it as many times as I would like to and bonus thing is it keeps my session neat.

As my Cousin who uses various Daws in his music making used to say Daw Wars. When I met him he was using Logic and then over a space of few years on his computer- Logic, Studio One, Pro Tools, Reason 7, Reaper...ect Me I tried Ableton Live, Renoise, Unsine Holly Hock 2. But I never quit Reason, at t...

This process I mentioned is way faster in Reason 8 -Drag & Drop actually makes this task a dream.
Over the years I'm amazed how my knowledge of the how to do's in Reason has grown, I've had mates who use Reason and learned from them, plus Youtube videos help as well.

We are given so much sounds in Reason and then there's Rack Extensions/ Refills I used to create a Combinator then a 6:2 Line Mixer device throw in and NN19/NNXT/Thor- Whatever Instrument I may be thinking Then create my own sounds that way. Like shown in this pick. Then I just forgot this process a...

Love these mini video's - Maybe they may help someone...




I bought Devestator RE, a friend of mine had the VST and I liked the sounds he was getting out of it, so I was happy they had the RE version been a longterm -Reason user

I did buy the Fairlight refill, but since a space of time, now I see there is a WBF Refill - Way Beyond. Guess i'm at a stage now too where I have bought many refills, I looked at what refills I don't really use and I copied them to my external hard drive to make room for RE and other important thin...

Bitley -To a degree yes, but I would wonder why this necessarily would be a 'sexier' solution. It's like people have stopped discovering the fantastic tools we already have - such as the combinator. Apparently it's all about RE-inventing the wheel now huh. I still use Refills and I will forever, the...

Who would like to see Electronic Dream Plant Wasp in a rack extension format? I've watched a few Youtube clips on this a couple of times, great stuff seeing as they are a rare gem to find, I think it would be awesome to have in the reason rack. (Not saying that just because something is rare it's a ...

I bought this program for my old Imac - It was running OS- Lion (Fun computer that lasted me 5 years & then it passed away) While I used to mess around with this software, it was real brain melt at first, then I had to think outside the box to enjoy using the program It very modular though and I had...

I find with hardware I gotta set challenges for myself otherwise it sits there while I just am happy to use Reason standalone. Like I say to myself- alright my challenge is to create 2 beats using only this synth. Then other times I've just gone bonkers trying to make one huge crazy sound and I reco...

Reaktor 6 would be cool, however Native Instruments hurt me hard over the last 2 years - where I said to myself enough is enough. I have a love for Traktor and that's all. I finished more tracks in Reason then I ever could owning and using NI Komplete. Besides when I look at what i'm capable of I ca...

Recently my midi keyboard stopped working, I wasn't to sad, I've got few other hardware at my use to do the same job. I started using the Korg NanoPad again. I also own an OP-1 and I have to admit, it's a awesome tool, yet I struggle to create a finished track with it. Not that it's limited by any m...

Parsec - Just a favorite of mine, so many cool sounds and easy to tweak
Propulsion Drum Sequencer (By Lectric Panda LLC )- Awesome for drum programming, love it to bits.
Auto Theory - Because I totally suck at musical theory.

Question- would Synchronous be at my disposable?

Yeah listing to Merzbow, triggered anxiety for me. I have Autism, maybe that had some impact. I have to admit do like drone sound, haven't really been a fan of any of the Reason distortion stock stuff. I did however buy D16 Group -Devastor 2 Multiband Distortion. It has a nice warm tone and doesn't ...

It's fun to create music, in a big way I am also looking forward to getting on the Dj decks and playing live again. Well my focus at the moment is to just create new tunes, today i'm going to buy another external hard drive as I have 2 new refills i'm going to put on my computer and need to do a bit...

Have you set a music based goal for this year? I wanna have 2 albums completed this time. What have been some of your achievements over the years? For me my achievements so far- Back in 2005- I had remixed a track- I got out and went to drop that tune at a Beat Battle, got to see a few hands up and ...

I researched what IR Response is when I first upgraded to Reason 8 and heard of this. I had a load of great ideas like going under bridges and few places I knew may be cool to record. But the IR Response thing confused me, I don't know what i'm supposed to be hearing or listening out for. Few intere...

Now have Rack extensions working again. It was never clear instruction as to what to do to fix the issue, a few files to download and confusing instructions offered. Anyway I got there in the end, feel like I should of had a champagne shower after working it out, you know like those ones the winner ...

This is amazing, that tune blew my mind -wonderful track.

Awesome track man, it would of been a great track for a PlayStation game like Wipeout 2097 or Nintendo 64 - G Force.
But I also hear a bit of The Prodigy sort of style on it.

Love the tune buddy.

I Really like The ODD Reason ReFill In fact I'm strongly considering this refill to be my go to refill for the next album i'm working on. Here's a link to check it out. https://shop.propellerheads.se/product/odd/ I've often considered this refill as I reckon it would compliment ODD Refill. (Listenin...

Loque- Yes I have experience troubles only with Nucleus Soundlab -Guitar Scapes refill- at times It says to insert the cd rom, however I brought this as a download on the Nucleus Soundlab website. Sometimes this refill works other times it don't wanna.

Thanks everyone, I'll have to try that suggestion you offered Snowcattt, with the 2 cache files. Got the weekend almost here, so I'm going to persist at trying to solve this still. However I been having a break from Reason, after all the frustration, i've powered up my hardware and running through a...
