What do you want from Reason 13.5 or 14?

[LaLivre]

to create stuff like this in it on the fly:

So you know already what it is? Because I can't make heads or tails from that short,

Just wait and see... RS do not listen to their user base, did you forget?

I have already seen it, and although I don't need another arp, it is not something that I've seen integrated into the sequencer of any DAW.

Seems like some of you need a reminder.

why? whyy?? ok, seems that RS is trying to add midi generators like Ableton did, and ok, can be usefull, but please, fix the broswser and the midi chase first, and then you can add the "another player that nobody is asking for"

Feels like they have lost any will to improve the Core app to make it better.
How many different arps do we really need?

I have lost count on how many Generators/Arp Re's they have now and if Reasons future is a app that makes 1 finger songs i might aswell just start to use AI instead.

I agree with others who want fundamental fixes like browser/sequencer improvements and a product team attuned to producers' needs, but...

I'm an accomplished musician for 40 years, and have used Reason since 2008 - I love the Reason Players!

I wish there was a high-quality filter upgrade for all the original devices, with a switch to maintain backward compatibility.

That arpeggio smells like the Lectric Panda thing all in itself. Probably outsourced, but no less exciting because of that.

Panda's Kompulsion is obviously more complex to use, but way more powerful. And can be had for a fraction of the price (for those that don't have it yet).

Players always have the advantage that you can burn the generated content onto the sequencer tracks with a single click and keep refining it, so I wouldn't call them useless... but I have to admit, for things like chord sequences(Chord Sequencer Player), I'd much rather see them integrated into the main sequencer more like in Cubase.

for me players are ok, they keep me stay creative in the rack and then sento to sequencer for refinements etc...but we need some little things like midi note chase, auto-save etc to make Reason daw more usable...

What I’d really appreciate in a new version is MIDI note routing-chase and at least one level of grouping — like what FL Studio has now — so Blocks could have a master and group level as well, with groups taking higher priority.

That way, you could create instrument group-specific patterns, like in FL — for drums, bass, leads, and even shared ones (I’d say chord track, but I’ll just say marker track instead — not that it matters, it’s not gonna happen anyway)

I have the sensation that Reason at some point will be only a VST rack...

I'm all for that. It's been a long time since I've attempted to start a track in Reason. I've accepted that Reason will never catch up to the big boys - and I don't think it feels it has to, which is frustrating to some. Regarding the rack plugin, some of us have spent years creating combinators with VSTs and it's unfortunate we can't use those patches in the RRP. Wish it had some sort of visual indication so I knew not to attempt to load them.

Exactly.
Anyway, no one is requiring that the Reason sequencer became equal to Ableton, Cubase etc, because Reason has a different philosophy based to the rack and a real studio workflow, so the sequencer is a simple multi track, like the old tape.
But features like note chase are essentials, it doesn't exist a workaround to that...if I play a long chord that has a lot of evolving automations is still not possibile to play at the middle of the note...and bounce the midi to ear it, it's not a simply workaround, but a wrong way to do it. What about autosave? ok I have the muscle memory to do ctrl+s always, but why still not autosave? what is so difficult to implement it?
