Let´s just put a huge giant question mark behind this statement...Benedict wrote: Wed Jan 21, 2026 9:20 pm ...
Europa is like Serum etc only easier. Thor is like Diva, only more versatile and easier to use. ...
What do you want from Reason 13.5 or 14?

same strategy = same result, I just don't feel impress by a "minus 100 usd offer" for the same thing with the same strategy that pushed me to consider reason as a retarded plateform with peoples that still believe we live in 2005 and consider customers as just happy milked cows.jens wrote: Wed Jan 21, 2026 8:08 pmThat's ridiculous...9headshydra wrote: Wed Jan 21, 2026 3:12 pm if this new reason rack is like the previous, it's actual value is not even 99 usd![]()
LANDR apply the same strategy that already drived to a massive customers exode during the last 5 years, the only difference is just that the retarded seq part will just no more evolve, RE will continue to lose customers and we potentialy just no more see anything new except overpriced players that should be integrated in reason since the day one with every update
so the only question is just "who will or just want to be the next Reason investor in 2029 ?"

Any situation where you want two synths to modulate each other but not play the same melody. To use all kinds of signals to trigger and affect each other in weird interconnected networks. Not having this in the rack plugin was pretty much the first thing I noticed when I opened it — and a downgrade from ReWire — but i’ve had to explain why many times so I guess most people don’t use Reason this way.Benedict wrote: Thu Jan 22, 2026 7:37 am I haven't thought up a use case for MIDI wiring. I get it seems like the day but mostly past the basics, MIDI was for Multitimbral in one box (covered above) or Layering (Combinator does that better). MIDI could pull up FX patches, and maybe some units could change parameters (without SysEx), but again, that is Automation, which is super well covered in Reason (CV and Seq Lanes, not to mention Combi - which I will say doesn't like two things talking to the same parameter).
I'm not saying y'all are wrong, just not seeing a genuine use case. Perhaps you can explain as if I don't see it, perhaps RS don't either.

Sorry, but it gets even a lot more absurd right there - no part of your post makes much of a sense at all... it's all just wild claims and even wilder assumptions.9headshydra wrote: Thu Jan 22, 2026 9:24 amsame strategy = same result, I just don't feel impress by a "minus 100 usd offer" for the same thing with the same strategy that pushed me to consider reason as a retarded plateform with peoples that still believe we live in 2005 and consider customers as just happy milked cows.jens wrote: Wed Jan 21, 2026 8:08 pmThat's ridiculous...9headshydra wrote: Wed Jan 21, 2026 3:12 pm if this new reason rack is like the previous, it's actual value is not even 99 usd![]()

There hasn't been a single update delivered under LANDR and you already know what route they take and how they'e gonna fail? Really?
Just an idea, but perhaps you ought read again all the claims you just made...

As acquisitions go, LANDR is probably one of the best outcomes. Thuy make music software, they have experience in music DSP, they are actively launching new stuff such as https://www.kvraudio.com/news/landr-ann ... tors-65951
I think Reason is in pretty safe hands in terms of active development and the lower pricing and rack only version indicate some business sense IMO.

Surely the people who wants or uses the rack that way (which you can call "very nerdy modular use cases") are ok with the DAW part of Reason and use it.Dalle wrote: Thu Jan 22, 2026 10:38 amAny situation where you want two synths to modulate each other but not play the same melody.

I always liked Reason's metronome sound. I sampled it for Reaper, actually.
