Ostirus ruined me.

But, I can't get Ostirus to sync with Reason 11s with my large +8000 buffer size.

So I've been demoing the Viper vst, which sounds almost identical, but better in some ways.

I mean, I've had spire for years, but I haven't really appreciated it, as I should.

I feel like I can't go back to reason's stock synths, without some kind of heavy processing. Maybe an exciter?

Europa doesn't cut it.

The size of player drum hits on grid

When I use beatmap to create a beat and then write to the track the size of each hit on the grid does not correspond to any time increment. I know this does not matter because each hit is a one shot but was this done on purpose so when editing you can always tell the difference between the player notes and the ones you edit?

Made with Reason - October 2024 Edition

Thank you to everyone who submitted tracks for the October update of the Made with Reason playlist!

I've randomized the order of submissions. Sorry to those who ended up at the end of the list but that's what the "random gods" decided. And anyway, you should probably listen on shuffle as there's no meaningful editorial order to the playlist.

🔊 Listen to the playlist here (and don't forget to like/follow/save it!).

And let everyone know what your favorite track is in the comments. No cheating with mentioning your own track!

This goes without saying, but if you like any of the songs on the playlist, remember to add them to your own playlists, share, etc. I'm sure every indie artist on the list would appreciate it.

No signal to audio track…

Hi,

Could you help me with this issue - reason does not show up in this list: https://help.reasonstudios.com/hc/en-us/articles/360010498873-I-don-t-get-any-audio-input-signal-in-Reason-10-11-12-13-on-my-Mac-what-s-up

I can not get any sound in the audio track...

Cheers

Update:

The problem was SOLVED by downloading an upgrade of reason. When upgrading Reason, Reason asked for access to the microphone and now audio track works.

Installing/applying combinators to Reason 13 on Mac

Where am I meant to place downloaded combinators on Mac, for Reason 13? I'm really not used to the new browser setup and am still trying to learn not to create device specific patches in my own folders

Dr Rex. Explain like I’m five.

Ok. Jumping back in after fifteen years. Trying to get a Rex loop to auto start and stop. In runs when the track is running, but through the whole song. Clicked the Enable Loop button, but then there nothing. Looks like the full loop isn’t getting to the sequencer even after I draw the track.

Please help!

Reason 13 VST scaling and failing to open UI sometimes

Anyone know of a fix for this? More often than not I am unable to use a certain VST because the awful scaling in the new Reason makes the UI so small you can barely make out the controls and then the other annoying thing that has been happening is, randomly, a VSTs UI may refuse to open (you can see it briefly appear for a split second like it is trying to open but then closes immediately) which you can only get around by deleting the device then adding it in again, obviously losing your configuration in the process. Never had any issues like this in the previous version I was on (V10)

Reason 13 is unusable because the browser shows no patches. Is anyone else experiencing this still?

I can't use the Reason 13 upgrade, because when I do, the browser is blank. Devices are initialized and when I go to open patches, the browser is blank. Are there other people out there that are experiencing this? Does anyone have an idea of whether this is going to get fixed? I've been using Reason since Reason 2.0, and nothing like this has ever happened.

Is there a way to automate to automate the sample slot in mimic while in pitch mode, similar to Arturia Pigment's Round Robin mode?

I want to load one shots in the 8 sample slots and then play chords in mimic but have the one shot change with either each chord or note, You can do it in Pigments but I want to do it in Mimic.

Choppiness and dropout during playback and recording

I updated my iOS to Sequoia and ever since I'm having a ton of issues in playback and recording (choppiness, slowing down drop out). Anyone have similar experiences they were able to fix?

I have a i3 processor, 16GB of ram and a 500GB free on my computer. Thanks!

Where can I find the ReFills that I used to own on my dead PC from way back in the day?

Do the ReFills legally and legitimately exist or do I need to raise the sail in order to gain access to ReFills that existed before I knew what I was doing?

Please help me with the M-Audio Oxygen Pro

Hi folks. I've got the keyboard setup and everything works as expected, bar one thing.

I'm trying to use the buttons (that control the onboard arp and chord functions) to activate combinator switches.

The issue is the switches dont stay on, when i let go of the button it simply turns off.

I have Reason selected as the daw and have midi mode enabled on the device. The latest firmware update is installed.

On a side note, this also happens when I use the keyboards record and loop buttons (after i've set them accordingly in Reason).

Thankyou in advance.

Fav Synth Horn Patches? (stock Reason)

Anyone have a synth patch you like for stabs and such? I'm not looking for real horns at all, just leads or similar that function well in funk/groove horn-style lines.

I don't mind vst recommendations, but more interested in stock Reason instruments (Thor, etc).

Reason Augmented Reality version?

Will there ever be an AR implementation of Reason so you can make mad beats like that guy in Minority Report doing that swish-swush thing with his hands? Imagine the workflow..
