I want to bring it into my *cough* DAW. Now, I can roughly line up the tempo and hope that the tracks will line up, especially if I need to record 1 or 2 channels at a time (not all of us have multi-channel devices; I when with 2-channels of top-notch conversion rather than 8/16 mediocre conversion). No MIDI out means a lot of extra steps to get sequenced audio to line up. Nor can I bring my outboard sequences into my DAW to edit them further before rendering the resultant tracks.<br /><br />That's just one example of why it's a weird choice.<br /><br />But I'm on board with this post. I'm trying not to be a hater, and who knows really until it's in the wild. But so much seems wrong with this, least of which is how they're tagging it as some be-all/end-all for recording digital audio.<br /><br />And the thing about no VST/AU. So you're stuck with whatever EQ/Comp/etc PH coded/licensed. The great thing about multiple FX plugins is all the different flavors you can get. Even if they're all top-notch , don't you think your users are going to want to try some other flavors?C.

seriously... i have no id...what is MIDI out for???<br /><br />seriously... i have no idea. i know that pegs me as a non-technical loser. but that is what i hate about making music these days. unless you have a PhD you can't use any of the programs. i have a PC, so none of the MAC programs are available to me. i have bought Cubase and Protools and experienced nothing but confusion. such incredibly poor interfaces. sooooo unintuitive.<br /><br />as a Reason user since 1.0 i have loved it from the very start. i never ever missed having VST's and plugins. to me i have always loved the interface and how it looked like something real. that was its beauty. you almost never ever need the manual because everything makes sense.<br /><br />for years due the lack of audio in , i have only made instrumental music... this is finally the Godsend i have been waiting for...<br /><br />and yes, i am in the minority on the Prop forums in my like for this product.lineofcontrolnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4040112777996013749.post-52899048025324382942009-05-12T13:21:00.000-07:002009-05-12T13:21:00.000-07:00I hate to gloat, but I *TOTALLY* called this one:

They've just created an ugly and under-featured DAW.<br /><br />Part of Reason's appeal was always that it was light and fast - a great way to sketch out songs, create beats and develop sounds. All they really needed was a rethink to REX/ReCycle to make it easier to handle 4-16 bar chunks of audio.fernandohttp://www.fernandogros.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4040112777996013749.post-3446196461034193192009-05-11T14:20:00.000-07:002009-05-11T14:20:00.000-07:00Lame.

if the point of Reas...there's no MIDI out -- WTF?!<br /><br />if the point of Reason is synthesizers, then why not let me sequence a (cough) real synthesizer?<br /><br />Reason is ridiculous.

On the other hand, I am not a Reason user and the lack of external plugs was a put-off for me from the start, so I'm not sure this was really designed to appeal to me in the first place. I do appreciate what you've been posting though and am always interested in what you post here!urbster1https://www.blogger.com/profile/11311185717138876809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4040112777996013749.post-68239739762034585142009-05-11T12:41:00.000-07:002009-05-11T12:41:00.000-07:00I don't think you're wrong
