Record: New DAW from Propellerheads

[YUGA]

It's tempting. I own Reason 3 and I'd also get free upgrade to Reason 4 in addition to Record. But I wonder if I could wait for Record 2 perhaps I'd also get free upgrade to Reason 5?

I'm torn between Logic 9 upgrade and Record for Reason Owners.

[headquest]

So who's going to buy it then?

Lots of Reason users, judging by the Props forum.

Mark me down as a *possible* at this point. I know I've been somewhat negative about it, but that's particularly because I am disaapointed that it isn't better already. And maybe version 2 will rock, who knows? But as a Reason user I think there are aspects of Record that I need as a Reason upgrade, plus I am known locally as the person who can teach Reason, so it makes commercial sense for me to stay on board at least for now.

[but you obviously won't be able to mark me down as a fanboy for this one!!]

I could think of 100 other things to waste my money on and Record is not one of them. I can see what the fuss is for any owner/licensee of reason 4. It seems a natural progression to be tempted by the upgrade. To me its not a case of too much money and not enough sense or even so many toys and not enough time.
Has the dongle put me off. No it hasnt. I did test the beta, but who didnt.
I deleted it from my system due to CPU problems and I will wait until release.
Buy the box and download the update on the same day on release.
Like headquest has quoted, he is not a fanboy and either am I.

Well I'm a Reason user (have been since V1) & it's not a very good fit for me! It would have been near perfect with MIDI-out so I'm dissapointed the Prop's have decided to omit such a basic fundamental element of a DAW/sequencing application. I can completely understand why they don't have VST support as it's very difficult to see how it could be implimented into the Reason/Record rack. Infact I've always been dead against VST support in Reason. But no MIDI-out in a DAW?

IT'S NOT A DAW!!! IT'S AN APPLICATION FOR RECORDING, ARRANGING AND MIXING AUDIO!!!

Sounds like a digital Audio Workstation to me!!

I tested, but did not buy. I couldn't see any real benefit over my current setup where I rewire Reason into my DAW.

I reckon I would have bought if it had MIDI-out. Always been a huge Reason fan but I'm really dissapointed that the Prop's left MIDI-out from Record. I need to be able to control my external gear via MIDI. If I need to Rewire Record into another program to do so then I might as well use that program to do everything else, which kind of makes Record a bit pointless for me at the moment. MIDI out is the deal clincher for me & I'd switch to Record in a heart beat if it supported it because I could do everything from Record with Reason & my external gear. I only us a couple of plug-ins so I'd happily drop those.

Everyone bought it. They are busy making music with it now

I bought it. I have Reason 4 and Pod Farm already, and they really integrate beautifully into Record. I think of Record really as my upgrade to what I was hoping Reason 5 would be. It was definitely worth the $150, which is less than the upgrades of a lot of other software.

I cannot, though, imagine buying it without Reason.

better to have limited tools that are innovative, than to have innovative tools that are limited.

erm, struggling to see the difference between limited tools that are innovative and innovative tools that are limited. arent they both limited and innovative?

or is one innovative and limited?

indeed. that's a mindfuck. i just worked 14 hours or so and it was reading like the sphinx..

You can't help yourself mate having a crack at anything that I've got to say.

What you really want to do is get me banned again.

Shit I'd hate to do a bank job with a squealing bitch like you.

Seriously do you own Reason 4. Are you upgrading to Record. What do you make music on.

Can you afford it. You couldn't afford KV331 's Synthmaster. You had to have a cry over their pricing.

Normally I end my post with a cheers but you give everyone a reason to dislike you.

Why don't you just list the tools you own and the ones that work for you and I don't mean the graphic ones. Probably all the freebies tightarse.

Perhaps you think you are cool on KVR but I think you wreak of dickhead.

i bought it the first day it was released. 9/9/9 i bought it first and foremost cause it makes reason full multicore. and not only full muticore, futureproof full multicore! it will use as many cores as that are thrown at it. if multicore wasn't a features of record i definitely would not have bought it.

[randyandyvandaman]

I have R4 and just d'loaded Record yesterday ( 1 gb )and I am quite impressed with sound quality and layout. The ssl 9000 is a real winner on a dual screen monitor. Multi core support is nice. Can't wait for R5 and maybe x64 support.
