Guys, there’s one thing I want, Mimic 2.0. We should be able to affect individual slices in slice mode. It’s a huge oversight that we can’t individually pitch, stretch, filter, reverse, etc them. The ability to lock the stretch to song tempo in slice mode should be there too. I want to use mimic but these issues force me to stay in serato sample. Having the ability to load whole Rex files would be great too
+1
Also there should be an option to copy the setting of one Part to any other Part (there are 8 parts or "minipatches" inside Mimic), and please, more Loop options (like FW-BW)
@@AvithOrtega Yes! The lack of a copy&paste affects me almost every time I use mimic
Yes🎉🎉x 💯
"mimic 2.0"
lol it will never happen, they will create a new sampler for your wishes and you can shell out the cash.
I am a sucker for these type of small documentaries. Be careful Reason Studios we will expect this for every big release.
Been a reason user for years, have thousands invested in it. Haven't upgraded to Reason 13, was really hoping there'd be a little more meat on the bones, or at least a less abusive upgrade cost for long time users.
I love this update. Please don’t lose the new focus on improving the sequencer! Great updates…keep them coming please! ❤
Improving sequencer in what way????
@@LossLeadas Lots of ways for me. There's more to be done, but at least it's moving again.
@@LossLeadas allow us to create device groups. Can't count how many times I've wanted to group all drum tracks and minimise to free up screen real estate etc
@LossLeadas I asked @Reason Studios for a larger midi editing view and apparently they did it. I asked @Reason Studios for ghost notes. Apparently they did it. So, more innovations and additions to the sequencer and piano roll are also wanted by other people.
I also asked in a comment under this video for Dolby Atmos adm,fiedler Atmos Plugin, and video importing to be added into the program.
The signature bundle and all plug-ins versions of Fl Studio come with the fruity video editor which allows you to import video footage into the daw to write and arrange music to. Imagine Hans Zimmer writing music for the movies that he works on. Cakewalk added video import into their daw over 20 years ago. Fl Studio can do it but Reason can't? Make it make sense. There are actually new composers composing in Fl Studio!!!I couldn't believe it until i saw it for myself. And they were good man..😢. It sounded good... 😢 😢 😢...😭 ... 😆 🤣😆 .
Come on @Reason Studios... we've got to move forward into the future.Why wouldn't they want to make the program usable to composers and film scorers as well?
Also, bitwig,reaper, Cubase and Nuendo have much better audio comping and editing abilities, midi editing and changing abilities, and video handling and audio routing abilities. It would be nice to see Reason to continue to advance with the Apple companies philosophies of... creating the complex and making it super easy to do. That's what Steve Jobs did. He required it. Let's create the coolest, most creative, and most helpful products... and make it easy for the average person to use... easily.
I hope this helps @Reason Studios.
I'm rooting for you. Others are wanting you to continue to be great. Beyond just adding a soft synth on every update. If every version gets a soft synth on an update, make major improvements to the daw features, capabilities and capacities in the .5 update. Example 13.5 adding MPE,multi-channel vst signal routing to the mixer for recording all the loaded instruments in kontakt 7 into Reason at the same time to save time in midi, like bounce to audio... but bounce to new separate midi channels that could be bounced to audio after your arrangement is made, before you start mixing, etc. That would be dope. I love you @Reason Studios. You were my first daw, therefore you're my first love. And I don't want to give up on you. Don't let Fl Studio continue to outperform you.
This is the kind of video of love seeing from you guys. I really enjoy getting a behind the scenes look at your thought process. For what its worth, I think 13 is an excellent update and I'm enjoying making music with Reason more now than ever! Thank you guys for the hard work
Yea its dope
The perpetual license upgrade price for loyal Reason users is TOO EXPENSIVE. Please consider bringing it down to $99 for a limited time for those who are upgrading from Reason 11 or 12. This is the right thing to do Reason Studios. Please do this.
A new retro synth and zoom tool doesn't seem like it's worth 349$ Canadian. Are people really this excited over a search browser update? All these overly excited comments with people cheering on a browser update seems very strange.
I don't understand it either@@sinewavedream
As a long time Reason user, this feels overpriced.
Reason is great but too convoluted and the screen is too busy. I've not used it for 14 years now after going with Ableton.
@@_boof me too ... sad ..
I was one of the first people in Newcastle UK, to be using Reason seriously as a tool which could be used to produce any type of music. Many people thought it was "only for techno and dance music", which I thought was rubbish from the beginning.
I was using a lot of live recordings of my guitar/bass/piano playing, and playing them as samples - but the samples were like 5 minutes long or more sometimes. So it was a multitrack recorder to me.
And I loved having the classic instruments, such as: the Rhodes, and the Hammond organ.
I loved Reason.
I ended up giving up on making music, but If I had kept going, I would have stuck with Reason for being so user-friendly, and beautiful to look at/use. (Nobody knows, but Reason was used on my music that Chuck D, had on his web page "Slamjamz").
Just got Reason for the first time the other day and I love it. The sounds are really good and the analog look to all of them with especially the cables on the rack are super fun to mess around with and get different combinations of sounds.
Mostly love the update, it looks awesome. However I really dislike the browser. Working from a sample pack takes WAY longer. I find myself clicking through the same tree folder structure hundreds of times. Please bring back the browser on the left!
Most definitely was smoother on the left it finds everything when you type. New browser doesn’t behave the same.
Well you could just make Reasons scean smaller leaving a gap to the left and then put windows explorer there and basically do exactly the same as the old browser.
@@HOLLASOUNDS unfortunately not. The browser window is confined by the reason window so it cannot be placed next to the reason window
Are u saying its hard for you to find samples and patches from the browser??? If so How?
yeah not having my vst favourites lists and folders on the left is such a huge downgrade in speed for me :/
I want to know, why the team removed the possibility to add Rack Extensions to favorites list and that favorite lists, which contained Rack extensions had their contents removed when updating reason to 13. I mean, in theory it was possible that absolutely nobody working at reason studios as well as absolutely nobody of those who they involve in beta phases have not even one rack extension in their favorite lists. Besides that being highly unlikely, even if it was true, it would mean that you need to significantly diversify your test groups. To put it more simple: the idea to prevent anything from being found in the browser is a bad idea in general. The fix to your new browser is to remove any kind of limitation about things it can show.
same here
it was a bad move big times...
i had self build combis and REs and VSTs in one Slot it was so fast to use my stuff
all phasers in one FAVORIT , compressors, Filters, Delay, Reverb....
now i have to search combis in one place and REs and non tagged VSTs in the other place, so many more mouse clicks......
Thanks for the inside look! I have been a fan since the rebirth days!! Thanks for all the love and work you put into this program! I can't wait to see whats next!
Shout out to everyone who works at Reason You Are Awesome👍👍👍
Well not want to be harsh but sincerely instead of having such polished videos it would be actually more amazing if the price would match the expectation. Not sure why other daws are cheaper for more features.
Don't even get me started at the rack extensions.
Atleast all of them could be accessible with the subscription not just the reason once.
The Reason 13 upgrade was a step in the right direction but a small step. I would recommend to stop for one version the Synths development and add more tools that make arrangement and also managing big projects easier.
The Rack is awesome but not everything has to be done by cable or atleast give macros to easily do stuff that is repetive.
I would recommend to you guys to look at Cubase and Bitwig. Take the idea of the modulators from Bitwig and do a Device which has all of such modulators.
Take the midi editing tools of cubase and you have again a DAW where people run to and you don't have to milk your customers because they get less and less.
The Reason Rack Plugin was there way of saying🤫...we're not listening to you anymore.
Need more evidence besides this update?
The Reason Studios website says something like, "Reason wasn't made for those looking for the standard."
I love how the vid doesn't have the stench of $199 upgrade path in an age where other DAWs are doing them for free or are actually giving you wanted new features for a fair price. SHould have bee an $79 0 $99 upgrade with the new synth in the RE shop for those that need it.
They are not listening to you.
@@coldskoolbeatz still feels good to vent. They are a different company for sure.
Why aren't you using one of those other DAWs?
@@somuchfortalent I've envested too much into Reason. But simple stuff like having Mimic play looped sliced waves like a rex player, right click route drump pads to SSL mixer on all drum machines etc. Stuff that other DAWs would have had by now and Reason just offers a ok synth and a few effects and say $199 upgrade fee please. Their on something lol.
I just wonder how you draw in new users and subscribers with this. Folks will cancel fast. And people like me who voice opinion instead of praising the company will wait for a firesale. Other folks have moved away from Reason which I totally get. But I have so many projects I need to have access too for my work so that's not an option.
@@busywl69 "would have had"
So do these other DAWs have such features?
I paid for Reason 13 immediately without thinking about it. I’ve loved this software since its inception, and 13 with its changes actually stimulated my creativity. As a underpaid engineer and producer, my motivation was also for the developers who I’m sure love what their doing and while they will never be unappreciated, they should also be rewarded by those of us who rely on it for our on livelihoods. So to the reason staff, hats off and keep it burning. I can’t wait for Reason 14.
Having owned a Nord Lead 2 since 2000, I am glad to hear that Palle is still actively part of Props! The morph function was a big feature of the Nord synths
brilliant video! hope to see a video like this for every major reason release. man that freeze function on Ripley is beautiful.
Thanks for the insight! Love Reason and been using it since version 7! 💗 Great work! ☺
Incredibly expensive update for such a small amount of new features.
most of us agree.
Everyone doesn't use the C: HDD for there needs it would be nice if the companion app allowed up to choose where to sounds and devices we use are stored, probably my only real complaint
that has been a irk for me for awhile. So many other daws let me offload the factory to external. Go Bitwig and Ableton for this.
I love reason and the people who believe in it! Thank you Reason Studios
Love Reason, been using on/off since 1.0 but upgrade price is a bit steep for someone like me who uses only the rack in other daws (did upgrade a few times but can't justify any longer) :/
Im not getting used to the new browser. Its really made for the Reason soundbank as a center it seems. Also when you go to the mixer and you create a send effect you can only pick patches. I want to pick a device there like it used to be. A few chances have been missed to get the sidechaintool right too. Would have been so much nicer to see the sound (kick) that controls it in the display (Like kickstart). I do like the update but theres still work to be done. Reason gives me a hardware exception also every now and then which never happened before. Of course behind the scenes development which will iron out things. I do hope the focus goes from workflow (been the focus for a lot of new versions) and get to the core of the functionality more like scale view in the sequencer, a nice included transient shaper. Plus please get some more modern sound designers on board for Polytone! Its a great synth but the patches included are just not cutting it in this modern music landscape.
Where can we submit ideas for some QOL fixes we still desperately need
Beta
@@blutheproducer9888 huh? I don’t want to test features that will be rolled out, I want to submit ideas they ARENT looking at which are mainly QOL
bring back the "old browser" let the user choose with what browser he will work
The old browser will come back in Reason 18 as the killer feature of a revolutionary browser on the left side.
@@tangente00Right! 😂
I thought the "new browser" was an upgrade in a previous version.
I think the Reason crew did a fabulous job with 13 - well done team! For me Reason is by far the most fun DAW to work with and the only one that makes me feel like a kid let loose in a mega gear shop 🤓
Keep those updates coming! ❤
The AGE function on POLYTONE is excellent.
! I would love to see this feature added to other Propellerhead synths! Or could it be added as a combinator feature?
Also, all Propellerhead devices look great. They are easy to use, stimulate the imagination and are a feast for my eyes.
Top job guys. Polytone sounds absolutely amazing. It actually sounds so good it stands out over all my other instruments. Love the new layout!!!
Been a reason user since 2011, Haven't updated since I got 11. Looking forward to getting reason 13 this summer! Love this! Can't wait to use vst3 :D
14:36 That is what We need for custom Combinators, a bunch of small individual boxes that just do one thing each and We can put together how ever We want to make an outcome We want. I suggest you bring this in the form of the smallest devices the half Rack devices, make about 50 of them which will function exactly as a modular system. Do that and that will be great.
fractional-width (1/4 & 1/2) standard height (subtractor, scream, maelstrom) RE that are eurorack modules, contained by a combinator. I'm tried Cherry Audio and VCV Rack, but because they're VSTs, there is zero workflow between them and Reason.
@@sazaraki There hasn't been any new ones of those smallest Reason Rack devices in over a decade, the ones that come with Reason 1, the red ones like the Unison or delay and the silver ones like the Phaser and distortion, those are what Im talking about. They would be idea for a VCV Rack style system and could be used exactly like those temporary devices was being used to make the Ripley. I was going to make a Combinator that on the front looks like a stack of those smallest rack Rack devices stacked ontop of each other and each would be a reface for a VCV rack devices.
@@HOLLASOUNDS Yes, I was supporting your idea by suggesting small devices, in the size that you describe, for the role of "euro rack modules", but would require using a combinator to put everything together.
@@sazaraki You wouldn't have to use them with a Combinator its just they would be perfect for making Combinators.
@@HOLLASOUNDS... hey, I've been asking for these half-rack devices forever now! I'm glad I'm not the only one who wants more of them! And I'm happy the word is spreading! 😊😊😊
I really appreciate these closer look videos.
Thank you 🙏🏾
This made me want to get up and make some more music .. 🎶
Excellent job! Greetings from Venezuela.
More of this, please ;)
If I would live in Stockholm these would be my work colleagues! 😃
The new browser keeps its promise: it makes me discover cool old sounds. I still need to learn the new sequencer flow, but it's been great so far.
Agreed! I’ve recently found so many cool new sounds I never new existed haha
Thank you guys for listen to my prays! You improved the zoom after I request many times in social media hehehe just a kinda serious joke... And you are version after version keeping this spirit to bring amazing tools that are not impersonal but almost something that you can touch, feel the knobs, see the colours and textures, hear the results and over and over. What is my favourite device? No kidding! I have to pick just one? I can't even make a proper top ten list! You are a fantastic team that make my creative process more and more open and deep and soulful... love from Brazil!!
Happy that I can finally make an orchestral template.
Glad that they sorted out the VST/CPU efficiency issue that stopped it in the past.
Mattias using polytone and Ripley created a perfect bed for Radio ...
I love videos like these and wish you guys did it more!
keep up the great work guys. the new browser is very cool. finding inspiring presets so easily with it.
I was going to purchase until I found out the new browser removed previous necessary features. Reason 12 browser allows for so much more functionality I don't feel the floating window and tags are a step forward in comparison to what was lost.
Even though I own the FL studio full version I use Reason but they just released an update that includes a stereo tool, new synth, bass harmonic plug in plus a whole slew of quality of life features, all for free.
Now I don;t expect "free" I do expect some level of "Reason" for a purchase to be made and sorry you guys really need to do some soul searching.
Hopefully they’ll patch it to “Mimic” 12
What is it specifically that you dont like about the new browser? You said You dont like it but what dont dont You like? Be more specific.
@@HOLLASOUNDS The two main things are the lack of fav list for external devices and thumbnails. That's a game changer for me.
@@blutheproducer9888 I hope so.
@@chocomalk They said in the last live that they are working on the favourites system and listened to criticism, and as for VSTs they have there own preset search functions and We cant expect Reasons search functions to override that. If you want to save your favourite VST presets, save the VST in Combinators and tag those.
One thing I love about the new browser's tag system is that we now have to consider our motivation for choosing sounds as artists rather than technicians.
If you guys could just come up with a visual EQ that is as comprehensive and detailed as Logic's Stock EQ, Ozone's EQ, or Fabfilter pro Q3, there would be no competition anymore. It should have the ability to solo frequencies/bands too.
Love the meeting room names!
Awesome bit of insight into Reason Studios - More of this!
Okay, if you could update Mimic to allow us to trigger chops in real-time by hitting pads or notes on the keyboard, then I’d be good, honestly.
All these videos about 13, I been trying to upgrade for almost two weeks and can’t get anyone over there for support submitted my ticket weeks ago @Reason Studios
Is there EVER gonna be some changes with the SSL mixer like making a dark mode and better VU meters???? Everything else about this program is fantastic. But how long is the mixer gonna be ignored?? It's TOO BRIGHT!!
They won’t
Copyright infringement on making it look to much like a real SSL would be a problem they dont want to get into. They will never make it look the same colour as a SSL.
It's definitely too bright.
Surely they can give an option to tone it down a little? It is waaay too bright to work with for long periods.
@@gesslr A dark mode for the mixer would be nice.
The world needs Reason to be a standalone device. Knobs/pads/keys/sliders/in/out.
Browser is extremely slow when u add too much of your own content.
Damn, now at 46 i'm a hardware freak, but i started (after the amigas) with an emagic 8 out card and REASON 2, back in 2000, damn did it sound fat aqnd stompin' compared to anything else. i still have my original reason 3 and 4 + refill cd's at home. great to see you are now up to number 13, i cant imagine how hudge reason has become in 2024. way to go !
Great update! One little thing that annoys me with Reason is when you want to tweak a knob and you miss it slightly, and it starts to move the whole instead. Is it only me?
why do yall never show code? or a peek into the development process at the coding level?
Cause it's the internal sauce no company wanna show?
There's some code in the old video :)
th-cam.com/video/lFzTXWaYLYI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mJg-i0hAmWGRF7F2
Why? All you would see is what looks like website code, which none of it You will understand. There graphics codes are exactly the same as Photoshop or other graphics app.
Secret sauce.
@@HOLLASOUNDS im a software developer. getting to see insight on how something is made is always very interesting. and i can tell the difference between website code, and software code.
Reason 13 is awesome yet the window for the instrument, effects and utilities can barely fit the name of the device in it.. it need some minor improvements and here’s just my idea however it seems it would be natural to just hover the pointer over the side browser and click, a prompt will then automatically ask if you want to turn on or off this feature to enable the side horizontal browser to pop out just in that general side area to be resizable while in use then will automatically zoom back in position once the program detects you are now back to other perimeters of the DAW.(mixer, rack or sequencer). I think that will
better utilize the new 3-D upgrades to visually be able to read and see graphics better and overall be a really appreciated and great upgrade to reason 13’s next update.. and I have more later.
I really hope you bring back the old file lister. The windowed file browser was one of my biggest issues with Reason, before the glorious update (can't remember which number) that finally added a proper file view, and I'm not going back to that system again. I'm not against a windowed file requester being there, that's fine, lay all the resources you want on requesters and tags, most of the features rolled out in the last decade haven't been for me anyways. But for the love of amens, please don't force me to use it. And keeping the same screen space for the same thing, but just the least used part of it?.. Just feels odd, since I'm assuming you're not actively trying to drive those away that don't like the old way. I don't even care about favorites (but that would also be odd removing), just a proper, fixed, file lister.
I heard the reasoning for the windowed file requester was that not many reported using favorites (or something along those lines), but would love to know the reasoning behind keeping that part of the screen, but only for devices?
out of all the DAWS Reason always does the best in house vids IMO
Having worked with the new update, I find it quite good. The new tools have brought a fresh breath of air into the mix. However, I have noticed a significant increase in bugs, or perhaps the debugging wasn't fully completed. Crashes have become more frequent, with the program closing unexpectedly. This used to happen very rarely. Usually, it occurs due to external VSTs, but I must reiterate that there were fewer such issues with the previous version 12. This is the main downside for me personally.
I am really looking forward to future updates with new features for Mimic and Combinator, as well as a refresh for the classic EQ with the addition of a spectrum analyzer.
It would be great to have the ability to switch from a spectrum analyzer to a scope on the mixer, so we can see the sound wave itself. This is especially important when you want to visually check the kick drum and bass and see how they work together.
In any case, it's an excellent update. I've already reworked two tracks using the new tools.
I'd love to be able to pin my favorite devices to the top!!
Conversely, i'd also love to be able to mark some rack extensions as favorite in Companion ;)
Why does it take 80 seconds to load a basic song in Reason 12 when other DAW's I own take 20 -30 seconds ? Please answer
It's the best upgrade in a long time, Reason as a stand alone daw is getting someone now
The one workflow improvement that I've wanted for the longest time is an auto punch feature.
Also, when I add VST effects to the sends they produce weird artifacts.
I'm sure there will be performance improvements so I'm waiting on that.
What's wrong with Reason's performance? For VSTs I think it's on par with other *creative* DAWs Like Bitwig, Live or FL. Their native devices are unbeatable.
@@Artek604Improvements I think he means like track folders, freeze tracks, maybe a global key selection etc. Small creature comfort improvements like that.
@@Artek604 There's a huge bug right now where VST 3 plugs have a memory leak.
@@DaleLindsay Yeah, I've heard about it. I understand it's also present in R12, right? I don't use plugins a lot (or not at all), so I've not noticed it :(
2:14 - this is where grouping sequencer tracks by source would help - there's really no need to have separate tracks for players, instruments, effects and inserts, when all of them originate from the same sound source; at the very least, folder tracks should be introduced to collect all those other tracks after the fact
2:26 - no, that's very rarely required - how about you'll extract the piano roll to a separate panel alongside sequencer, rack & mixer and let user decide if and how they want to arrange it on the screen?
2:37 - unfortunately you failed, e.g. I can't see how I can chop a drum loop and re-arrange it (move stuff around, stretch individual hits, reverse stuff, etc.) in the edit window?
2:50 - well, clearly Mattias doesn't know what people want - most long-standing user requests have not been taken into account, like markers, folders, missing keyboard shortcuts, dark mixer, MIDI comping, and so on... one person shouldn't shoulder that responsibility; and also the level this is done at? Mattias is excited to say "let's do new browser" without any vision or idea, then is somehow happy of "hundreds of documents" produced by Ludvik who's trying to come up with something, so he probably spends weeks & months working, only for Mattias again cutting out features & functionalities, because for whatever Reason it has to be simple and streamlined. No, you guys are "light years" behind the clutter or FL or Reaper, so you can keep adding features without worry!
3:50 - "all the new colors" - is that we you've still not added custom themes? why mixer is still bright?? why Blue was removed??? good DAW GUI should have a very limited number of base colors so they could be easily swapped up by devs or users; using 10 shades of grey for the GUI goes directly against that principle - it's the devices, mixer and GUI that should shine, catch the eye with design & colors; the DAW itself should be flat & almost invisible
5:20 - sorry, I don't believe in a single word this guy's saying; if developers really had anything to say, we'd have custom installation folders, custom (and way more of) keyboard shortcuts, full-screen application, separate scaling of GUI panels, etc.
9:10 - good job, really well prepared launch! too bad it's paper-thin, but it's not that team's fault
eh, I'm tired watching it for the 5th time :D
People are harsh here. I'm happy Reason is still going strong. I've tried FL and Ableton for years but I always come back to Reason.
The harshness has to do with people thinking that Reason is holding them back from becoming famous or FOMO when they see another DAW add a bunch of bells and whistles that really don't apply to most users. Could Reason use some minor QOL adjustments like track folders? Yeah. But those things aren't holding anyone back. People tend to focus on what they don't have rather than all the features they do have. Grass is always greener on the other side.
Well there is still allot of anger in the Reason community of Plus subscription, raise of cost of stand alone by 3rd, no Suite or Lite available and so on really polarised the fan base put simply.
@somuchforti agree..i say workflow features..multitasking features makes a huge difference
@@somuchfortalentAs great as Reason is there are still features people have been wanting like Video support, time code. Personally I’d love for them to upgrade the eq. I’d love for them to add some more colors to choose from or even better gradients to the colors. Track freeze, folders, Stem separation.
This is by far the best Reason release but as someone who uses the software exclusively there are a handful of features they came up short on.
I know right, so many crying moaning babies, these guys have been hard at work for years to build this program and everyone wants everything, they want it now and they want it for free !! what is wrong with people ?
If I have a bunch of MIDI instruments on different tracks (and maybe some audio tracks) I still cannot export say track 4 as midi object. I would have to delete all other tracks to get this single instrument as midi file. And I still cannot name any of my inputs or outputs. I am still left with In 1 - and so on. In my case 32 times! You real? Can I get my hearty heart now?
Love these BTS videos. Really refreshing to see the faces behind the team
That track at the end is too nice.
Why does it cost the same amount to upgrade from any version?
Reason is incentivising people to wait multiple versions before upgrading.
allow un hierarchical window management, full screen, key displayed inside the spectrum analyser, thanksss
Such a cool approach!
Very nice update. Just one question. When are you guys going to update Recycle?
it's been awhile eh.
Shout out to the rack space replicas of the devices in the background. I use to think about creating real hardware midi devices just like that. That would seamlessly integrate with the software. 😂💯
Hi Michael Kellerman, the "coommunity" manager!
Really cool team!
I asked @Reason Studios for a larger midi editing view and apparently they did it. I asked @Reason Studios for ghost notes. Apparently they did it. So, more innovations and additions to the sequencer and piano roll are also wanted by other people.
I also asked in a comment under this video for Dolby Atmos adm,fiedler Atmos Plugin, and video importing to be added into the program.
The signature bundle and all plug-ins versions of Fl Studio come with the fruity video editor which allows you to import video footage into the daw to write and arrange music to. Imagine Hans Zimmer writing music for the movies that he works on. Cakewalk added video import into their daw over 20 years ago. Fl Studio can do it but Reason can't? Make it make sense. There are actually new composers composing in Fl Studio!!!I couldn't believe it until i saw it for myself. And they were good man..😢. It sounded good... 😢 😢 😢...😭 ... 😆 🤣😆 .
Come on @Reason Studios... we've got to move forward into the future.Why wouldn't they want to make the program usable to composers and film scorers as well?
Also, bitwig,reaper, Cubase and Nuendo have much better audio comping and editing abilities, midi editing and changing abilities, and video handling and audio routing abilities. It would be nice to see Reason to continue to advance with the Apple companies philosophies of... creating the complex and making it super easy to do. That's what Steve Jobs did. He required it. Let's create the coolest, most creative, and most helpful products... and make it easy for the average person to use... easily.
I hope this helps @Reason Studios.
I'm rooting for you. Others are wanting you to continue to be great. Beyond just adding a soft synth on every update. If every version gets a soft synth on an update, make major improvements to the daw features, capabilities and capacities in the .5 update. Example 13.5 adding MPE,multi-channel vst signal routing to the mixer for recording all the loaded instruments in kontakt 7 into Reason at the same time to save time in midi, like bounce to audio... but bounce to new separate midi channels that could be bounced to audio after your arrangement is made, before you start mixing, etc. That would be dope. I love you @Reason Studios. You were my first daw, therefore you're my first love. And I don't want to give up on you. Don't let Fl Studio continue to outperform you.
Really !! You listen to the community- what a joke
😭
@@somuchfortalent He's right, check out Image Line's forum for comparison...oh wait there is no Reason forum anymore.
They mean social media, they are well aware of the community gripes on Reasontalk and KVR but tend to ignore them mostly. It is all going smoothly on their social media accounts because they can control the narrative.
@@chocomalkWhy are you here if you can be on FL's forum telling them what features you want?
@@somuchfortalent Because I use Reason, I just wish Reason Studios would use a little "reason" in their business model.
Lol.. I can't. RS went through the comments liking all the ones that shilled for Reason 13 but ignored the ones which had well deserved constructive criticism. The upgrade price of $199 is actually crazy for what's being offered. The remixed sequencer is a good, though small step in the right direction. However, everything else seems (I say seems because i won't judge it outright without having spent any hands on time with it) underwhelming at best.
I absolutely ADORE Reason and though I have Logic, which costs the same amount as this almost minuscule upgrade (Logic Pro 11 is a free upgrade from Logic Pro X as well 😮), I still use Reason as my main. I still even think Reason has some of the best synths in the audio market whether stock or paid. I'm a fanboy and have been since v5, but I gotta vote with my wallet on this one and stick with v12 until the upgrade price is justified.
A member of the RCUC (Reason Cult Users Coalition) will admonish you by stating how Logic is a product by Apple, who can afford to give free updates.
But can't explain how Imageline has been able to deliver exceptional free lifetime updates for there users, in addition to a subscription model.
But if you want to use Logic, you're locked to a Mac. That's why it's cheap. You paid the premium when you bought the Mac.
@somuchfortalent that's a fair point. One I overlooked as I've only ever bought macs for audio/photo/video production. I do still think the asking price is too high though. The old upgrade price of $129 (maybe even $149) would be more palatable imho. Maybe future point updates will change my mind.
@@JUsTFoRKiXx619 FL Studio updates are free for life. What's their excuse I wonder?🤔
Really loving Reason 13 so far!
Hello Maja @Reason Studios , can you please make theReason Rack plugin more creative? I would love to be able to have my plugins organised the Reason way inside other daws. So basically what I want is to load my vst instruments in the Reason Rack inisde Ableton. This would not only improve my workflow and creativity, it would also fully intergrate everything, creating the Reason why I love Reason inside Ableton!! I really hope this becomes possible in the near future, thanks
All very nice, but fullscreen mode where?
well done Propellerheads! 👍🏻😎
I think the comments speak for themselves. You’re only keeping in mind new subscribers and excluding your old user base. This is a weak update. Even with the new browser I literally have to tag hundreds of thousand of samples. I’m good.
I don’t plan on selling my license because I have too much invested in RE’s. But you guys need to step it up and ask yourself “what is making Reason users go outside of the DAW?”
For me, it’s very minor fixes that I’m amazed other DAWs have had implemented for years. Not everybody is using the Reason DAW with your instruments. There’s a good chance they are using VSTs and you need to streamline that workflow. Plain and simple.
They've stop listening to you since Reason Rack Plugin. That was the proverbial, "let the door hit you where the lord split you."
The new Reason Studios motto is, "less is more."
"Less features for users, and more money for us."
Best daw imo but fix that browser lol 😂
Please bring back REWIRE so we can use Reason with more powerful DAW's for tv/film composing.
Now they showing you the work..most dont wanna pay for
I’m looking for Dolby atmos integration
🙂😁😊😄 great stuff
Liking the new device's but that browser is keeping me on 12.
❤
"Ctrl+Mouse wheel" and "Shift+Ctrl+Mouse wheel" are switched. Drives me insane.
They give us another tape echo with a couple extra features. Stuff like this tells me they simply don't have the capability to innovate any more, or even know how to add things that we need from other DAWs. Polytone is the *only* good thing about the R13 update. Everything else is a step back.
@Reason Studios have you considered bringing back Recycle, upgrading it's GUI appearance and functions, and adding it into Reason Studios?it should be like the Edison editor in Fl Studio...but have all the functionality and features of the 2 ir 3 best sample chopping and editing programs on the market right now. Serato Studio and Sample, MPC 2 software, and RipX Pro.
It makes no sense for the pioneer of these programs to abandon them, forget about them, and have other people 20 years later come back and beat you at it.
It's time to remember the creative juices that pushed you to create this whole Reason Universe.
That's no Reason for you to be second at anything. With Love... and a tender push...
Wishing you the best.
@Reason Studios
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
so they are just going to the Ableton interface :)))
Why dont we get an updated version of all the Original racks? Nobody cares to have a new synth? I'd rather you perfect mimick, have stem separation, give us a 16 channel mixer, improve on the step sequencer like fl. Make Reason Rock Solid!
Nah Reason don't care about users thoughts. We have been requesting a huge upgrade for Reason Midi Sequencer for a decade now nothing positive happens... So don't make the propoganda about "We care about your making music faster" No you don't care at all... its just empty words,marketing talk... I will not buy any Reason's new version until you start to listen your user base! How many times I have asked you Reason. Have you ever compose music in FL Studio or Cubase Midi Squencer... I think not! that's why you guys are decade behind. If you can't make Chord Progressions faster all the updates,some new synths,effects don't make a diffrence to me... its simple you want people to buy it then listen Make SSL mixer Dark Note label every Squencer piano Keys make a new simple chord generator like in Cubase and make drag and hear chord progressions like in FL Studio and make Squencer dark mode! then people will buy it!
If those DAWs are so much better, then why are you here instead of using them? They seem to have everything you want.
@@somuchfortalent I like the studio cabling logic which I am used to when I first started with Soundcraft mixer and Roland 303, Yamaha DX7 so yes I like Reason for it's synths but Sequencer is from stone age!
@@the-matrix-has-youBro. That guy is the Reason Cult leader who thinks Reason is perfect the way it is, until a new update comes around.😂😂😂
@@coldskoolbeatz 😅
6:44 yeah that explains why you guys never listen to us. Give us a proper piano roll already !
Mpe Support next please..
national heroes! Was so cool to meet and chill at superbooth! Reason and Rebirth is a huge part of my musical upbringing - was like virtual training and preparation before i encountered the real stuff and started a career. Love and R13 is AWESOME
Killer app will be porting Reason to Vision Pro and letting us break outside the rack.
