Re: Reason and Huge Track Counts

I've had a lot of trouble with large (MIDI) track counts, including frequent sequencer lockups and crashes when the number is high enough. Very frustrating.

Re: For Niklas: List of Sequencer improvements

I also would like to see a split clip into tracklanes by note. You can currently manually select a note and then copy all of the same note to another lane but that should be automisable for Drum tracks. Eg i print Beatmap to track and then split the notes to lanes. In the Tools palette, try the "Ex...

Re: For Niklas: List of Sequencer improvements

A sequencer improvement that would save me a lot of time is being able to select and move notes in multiple lanes at once, while in multi-lane mode. It wastes a lot of extra clicks to have to repeat the same operation separately on every lane.

Re: For Niklas: List of Sequencer improvements

For the auto tool switching stuff, it's worth getting accustomed to using the QWERTYU key shortcuts. Once you have that muscle memory, you can switch to the tool you want instantly without thinking about it.

Track folders in the sequencer and mixer would be good.

Re: CPU usage and R12 crashs

Performance has been noticeably worse for me, and when DSP load gets high, it now likes to freeze up my entire computer for a few seconds. If I hadn't already started working in R12 on most of my current projects, I would probably revert to Reason 11 for a while and hope for improvement. I'm on an i...

Re: High resolution Reason is here!

As I understand it, DSP uses your CPU, HD graphics use your GPU. So the only impact on performance would be slower bitcoin mining, I guess. Actually if you go back you will read that rebuilding the images uses cpu... I will try and find it... This all depends, even intel Macs and Iris GPUs come in ...

Re: Most overrated and underrated VST developers (can list specific VSTs too)

Overrated: iZotope. The Ozone auto mixing stuff. Not my cup of tea. Also dont love how sluggish some of izotopes other plugins are. Even on a pretty souped up computer. Sluggish in what way? I haven't encountered that... I agree that the auto mixing features are generally not worth using, but I do ...

Re: New Sampler Thread

I really want any sampler in Reason where I can assign legato samples. Not sure this will offer that. There are so many different and incompatible ways of recording and implementing legato, and so many intricacies of setting it up that would need to be exposed to instrument developers. The only way...

Re: Reason 12 is coming!

So you're using another DAW, and you're not even using RRP?

I have to say, posting complaints on obscure forums about software you don't even use sounds like a real waste of time. If you're looking for easy workflow improvements, there's a quick tip!

Re: Pops In Bounces. Can't Seem To Fix Them. Stuck.

It sounds like you're running into something that's a known issue with EastWest's Play engine. It doesn't know how to handle offline bounce (i.e. faster-than-realtime), and its disk streaming fails when it can't keep up. Unfortunately this has been broken for years. It was apparently fixed at one po...

Re: Slow loading of vsts when opening reason daw

Kontakt sometimes has issues with loading large instruments from APFS formatted drives. Moving my samples to an HFS+ formatted drive sped up the load times drastically, in some cases reducing 60+ seconds to 4 seconds.
