I hope this new platform brings tons of success to you Urs.
Also can you show us the backside?

I think it's more likely that we will see Propellerheads 3rd party developers creating bespoke devices for Reason, complete with all the audio/cv trimmings around the back. This is not going to neccessarily going to mean Reason versions of plug-ins, which of course don't have all that virtual connectivity around the backzvenx wrote:yes but if you aren't on reason it is.....plus especially with small developers yet another format with its own bugs etc.....must be a nightmare for them....and I beta test for a few of them.. and see how even with the current formats it can be a nightmare....
The difference is that the plugins are "sandboxed". What that means is that the plugin runs within a software sandbox layer, so when a plug in crashes it doesn't crash Reason with it. So you still get Reason's rock solid reliability.oxygenet32 wrote:Oh well, i'm afraid I can't get excited about the Reason news, wow another program allows more instruments - sounds like they were running out of ideas for instruments rather than opening up the system willingly.
Think i'll stick with my trusty old FL Studio, at least I know what I get with that and they don't keep changing it's direction on me. Everything just works and it has had thousands of instruments for years, just like any other decent VST-capable host (Most of them).
I like Reason but, uh, just can't get excited by this at all. Good luck to those of you who use it regularly as your main host though, sure it'll be a boost to you but nothing really to attract new customers IMO.

Possibly. Another alternative is the SDK is much simpler to write to than AU/VST. Or maybe the captured plugin store nets him enough profit for him to hire another developer to focus on Reason versions more-or-less full time. It could go all sorts of directions. We'll see how it pans out, Urs is a pretty smart guy.zvenx wrote:Selfishly speaking as a u-he user for instance, I can't imagine this not affecting the time it takes to fix bugs and add features to the other formats and plug ins he already develops...
Exactly. If you are not familiar with the Reason rack concept, just imagine how cool it would be if your vst instruments and effects plug-ins were hardware modules with audio and CV/Gate inputs and outputs. If developers take full advantage of this capability, the possibilities will be endless.Liero wrote:For everyone complaining this is "just another plugin format":
IT IS NOT!
Remember it has CV/Gate I/O, if you can't imagine what this means in terms of creative possibilities you aren't thinking straight.
True. are they more Reason users than other DAW users in the world though?bmrzycki wrote:Possibly. Another alternative is the SDK is much simpler to write to than AU/VST.

Well, for example, you could have CV out signals on a synth for the LFO's, envelopes or other modulators. You can then send these signals into the CV inputs of another synth or effect to modulate its parameters.zvenx wrote:btw, for the most part doesn't cv gate etc stuff allow one to use audio as oscillators for synths etc and sidechaining and stuff, which for instance zebralette/dcam fx etc and a few other synths already allow and vst3 with sidechaining or what else am I missing?
