Hard to believe but I guess its true. I gave up on Reason because of the snails pace development, but maybe they were spending quality time making a new product, who knows. But it better be damn impressive if its going to complete in this crowded market.

They do work at a snails place, and as much as I've tried the Reason demo's over the years and flipped out over them, in the end it's never been ideal for me, so I never did buy it (I did buy Rebirth way back in the day though). But the one thing they do better then anyone else as far as I'm concerned is make a rock solid, bug free program. Every DAW I've ever used crashes at cetain points (probably due to a quirky vst), but if their DAW was somehow as solid as their other products, and was competetive otherwise... well the stability factor alone would put them at the top of my list.

Ableton Live and Reaper are almost as stable as Reason for me. I still get crashes here and there because of VST weirdness and I can't see how the Props could avoid that as no other host has...

Yeah, I can't either... But I'll hope for it anyway.

It not realistic, but it's not impossible (according to my "know nothing" about programing, idealistic mind.) It seems like someone (in like, 50 years from now lol) could come up with an ingenius way of coding so that even if a plugin was buggy, that somehow, only the buggy plugin failed and they made it disappear out of the project in a saved state on another page, where it could be dealt with or avoided.

so is this confirmed or just a rumour?
I haven't heard anything about a new props daw.

My biggest gripe with reason was you could never maximize the rack.
It's like the program is catered for ppl way back in 1996 when the biggest monitors were 15"inch.

Or maybe create some kind of in host "wrapper" that could "firewall" it from any third party bugs....

Well, it is the "Future Music" blog. Pretty big industry source if its only a rumor....

Futuremusic - "According to our sources in Sweden"

That leaves it non-official, but pretty much confirmed in the same way a newspaper has a "trusted source".

OH!! I like your thinking

Yes, something like Chainer, that acted as a firewall of sorts... Each plugin getting it's own quarantined (seperate firewalled) space.

Hm... seems they're just releasing an ordinary audio-recorder...

Well even if it is true - it says it's not an update to reason.
When what people would actually like, is reason with audio input/recording built in.

I.e a DAW with all of reasons synths/effects/chaining! (improved and updated of course)

Will see how it plays out.

Perhaps you can use Reason as a a plug-in in this new DAW?
Then it'd be pretty attractive for reason users.

vinayk · Post by **vinayk** » Mon May 04, 2009 8:11 am

lol, then you'd have to buy, reason, recycle and redaw!

all too muhc money!

Hopefully the workflow is similiar to FL Studio.

Record: New DAW from Propellerheads
