lol reason. what a piece of niche garbage. i have bought and sold this daw 5 times from 2.5-7 i guess that's a record. i sold it the final time when propellerhead started their shit with withholding the best propellerhead re and forcing their users to buy them separately. in the old days you would get a update with tons of new stuff well, not tons, but you would get a new synth or awesome effects they were updates that 'counted' nowadays reason is a money sinkhole. and their grandiose rack extension plan/selections is lackluster at best. good riddance!

It does seem a little light on features compared to the last two major updates. I might skip this one and update for Reason 9.

They do mention that they will have a new guitar and bass amp for the rack.

But what i really wanted is new instrument, not another effect. Why must everything be optional RE instead? Comparing this to other DAW upgrade is laughable, especially when people like imageline is also redoing their GUI + mixer and will make it free for previous customer.

Maybe the problem lies elsewhere than on Propellerhead's side.

Nah, seriously, why the hate. You either decide for yourself whether the update is worth spending the money or not. Big deal. The internet is too full of people complaining about everything these days. And real work and effort seem to be pretty rare on the other hand.

Well Reason 7.5 was already a free update for us. BUT, i don't know what's the big thing of dragging and dropping anyway. I have always wanted to know how people will start using Reason if there's finally a drag n drop feature.????

At least they don't charge 199EUR from .5 to .0, and 50 EUR every year for interim updates.

Well steinberg is on the same wavelength with propellerhead in this case.

Meh.

It's been getting progressively stale.

Definitely focuses on usability, but I would have liked a little more for a major release update.
