anosou Posted July 2, 2007 Author Posted July 2, 2007 hmm.. well I Dont think we can save or render... its weird I saw posts on the forums about the save function doing weird things, and this guy has a reason 4 song on myspace apparantly. The ones who can save/render is the oldies, they've been betatesting since Reason 2.5 If you find a lot of bugs and prove useful to props they can give you the full version as a thanks. As it is now, only eXode, neoverse and a couple of other regulars has it Quote
SenPi Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 damn lol.. havent found any bugs yet XD. Anybody else find any? Quote
anosou Posted July 3, 2007 Author Posted July 3, 2007 damn lol.. havent found any bugs yet XD. Anybody else find any? Haven't tried this version. Found two in the last. I'm trying not to use Reason 4 atm since I'm in the middle of a song in Reason 3 and since they use the same preferences some things can be ugly Quote
OceansAndrew Posted July 6, 2007 Posted July 6, 2007 is there an NDA or anything on this? are you guys allowed to post screenshots? I've heard it's a lot cleaner than V3 I ask because I downloaded the demo of V3, and the thing is a total mess to navigate. I like the sounds it can produce, but it's such a pain to navigate i'm not sure I have the patience to drop a year just to learn the interface. Even the video tutorial on their site are only marginally helpful. Quote

We can't post anything, sorry But there are screenshots of the new sequencer on props reason 4 website? also, I find Reason 3 a lot easier than almost anything I've tried O.o Quote
OceansAndrew Posted July 7, 2007 Posted July 7, 2007 I think the main issue for me is that every single addon (subtractor, malstrom, redrum, etc.) has a different interface. Not being uniform makes it very intimidating to learn. There is a lot of cool stuff though; The piano roll is pretty ugly visually, but editing velocities is easy and fun. Not being able to zoom more than 100% sucks on my monitor as well. I couldn't find staff notation either, might not have been in the demo. It looks like a super-powerful and sweet program, but I think that I'll pass. Quote

Sir_NutS Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 Their interface is one of the easiest to learn........ I understood the whole program in about a week. Well, I spent a lot of years using fruityloops, I was using it since 2.3 or something, and when I made the transition to reason... well suffice to say is that it wasn't very pleasant, specially with the piano roll (I use it normally now and actually find it more efficient than fl's, it's just a matter of getting used to and knowing how it works and the proper shorcuts). However what kept me going at it, and trying to learn it was how fun it was to mess around with the parameters and cables, this interactivity level is something that keeps it fun and fresh imho. So yeah, for someone accustomed to some other software, they can have a hard time getting into Reason. Quote

The Pezman Posted August 1, 2007 Posted August 1, 2007 Has a specific release date been set yet? Quote
anosou Posted August 2, 2007 Author Posted August 2, 2007 Has a specific release date been set yet? No. But I figure it'll be a while. Quote
anosou Posted August 28, 2007 Author Posted August 28, 2007 The Reason 4 final version has been shipped to the presses about a week ago so we may not have to wait too long Quote
Malcos Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 So it won't be long now before we have it! Quote
anosou Posted August 29, 2007 Author Posted August 29, 2007 wee! Reason 4 is a Reason 4 meetup! we're all probably pretty scattered. OCRemixers with Reason isn't the most common thing ;P Quote
anosou Posted August 29, 2007 Author Posted August 29, 2007 "August 28, 2007: Propellerhead Software are proud to announce that Reason 4 will be released on September 26 at 12.00, CET. Reason 4 will then be available from the Prop Shop as well as from music stores worldwide. For your convenience, we have added a countdown meter to the Reason 4 banner above." ..I'm speechless Quote
SenPi Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 yeah! lets all meet up in winnipeg,manitoba, canada!!... yea like thats ever gonna happen This is really hot though. Quote
Nicole Adams Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 wee! Reason 4 is a Reason 4 meetup!we're all probably pretty scattered. OCRemixers with Reason isn't the most common thing ;P Yeah, I was joking. Anyway, I'm a little surprised they would release it so quickly. Fun, fun! Quote
anosou Posted August 29, 2007 Author Posted August 29, 2007 Any word on the cost? I think this was talked about at beta stage. Upgrade would be like 50$ or something that way.. I may be wrong though. I hope not Quote
anosou Posted August 31, 2007 Author Posted August 31, 2007 I was ofc wrong, the price for upgrade is 99 Eur / 120$ as the previous versions. Not 100% but I'm rather sure Quote
Knives Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 To quote from their site directly: "The price for the full version of Reason remains the same at EUR449 / USD499. There is also a discounted upgrade available for owners of previous versions of Reason. The upgrade is EUR99 / USD129." Aside from that, does anybody know if Reason 4 will support multi-core (dual/quad/etc.) processors? Quote
tweex Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 Considering that Reason 3 does support them, it would be logical to assume that 4 will as well. Quote

I can't for the life of me remember if they actually implemented it in the end. but my (very qualified) guess would be no. It's not adapted for multi-core processors. However if you actually own a registered copy of reason (if you don't, feel ashamed) you can easily log on to the forums at propellerheads.se and ask for yourself Quote
Knives Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 Well on my laptop it's pretty clear Reason 3 doesn't support multi-core processors, especially when running a heavy song, one CPU will be dancing and prancing around 60-80% while the other would be chilling around at 5-10% just running typical background system processes. And I did look through propellerhead's site along with searching through different forums at places, the general consensus seems to be that Reason 4 won't support multi-core processors either, which is too bad... =/ Quote
