Meh. I have a UMC404HD in my junk box. I was always frustrated with the poor output (not enough to drive my JBL powered monitors) even at max. When I replaced it with a Focusrite Gen 3 that gives plenty of drive even at about 30% on the big knob, I also discovered that all of the occasional crackle that I was blaming on the DAW was gone.

FB <shudder> Thank you for wading into the swamp so we don't have to! ?

Me too. I own 11 Suite. I took a three month free "+" offer in May, then switched to the "3 for $3" on the first round in July. I wonder when or IF the offers will fall away and they will survive on full price subscribers. I am not seeing the value.

Are you sure that deal is back? No mention of it on the Reason forum.

I own Sample Tank 4 Max, but no FX or Modo. My upgrade to TS3M is $499 and there have been a couple coupons this year that took that to $299, but I have not taken the hook yet. If I plan to go with TS3M in the future, is it pointless to look at the group buy? i.e. is there any additional purchase that would knock my TS3M upgrade price down further?

Bunch of people on VI-Control (Curse You 8DIO thread) are reporting that they got the free Requiem Pro based on $98 FULL PRICE basis. ie buy a $100 product, pay $35 and still get the freebie. Did NOT work for me, I think because after my $48 + $78 purchase (before discount) the value in my account for the $78 product changed to $48, making the sum $2 short. I had the gall to query 8dio support, but they insisted that the freebie only goes out based on the after discount total. Not complaining, because I know it's a glitch. It just didn't break my way this time.

I just got this email, but I have not logged in to verify the prices: Thank you for your loyal support of 8Dio and V8P.

Thanks Fleer! I didn't realize that the Circle thing was limited to active update plans. I should have assumed.

I think it must be VAT or similar. I already own MK 2 version, and it still shows as the 2.99 Euros on my page (regular 9.99 €) I am in the US.

First, I will dispense with the main topic. I have the Rhythm Guitar plug in as part of Explorer, but I have not gotten around to loading it yet! To @kevin H 's question. That is the route I took to getting the bundle. I bought Punch 2 for $86 and liked it a lot. I decided I want to go ahead and get the full bundle, and at the time (@ March this year), the best route I found was getting Sound Design X bundle for $47 (discontinued but Best Service still sold it), which entitled me to Explorer 6 for $99. Total cost $232. I actually checked with RP direct before I made the Design X purchase to verify that I could finish the bundle, since Design X was no longer offered direct from RP. They were quick to reply and helpful. Bonus- The DelSane delay was released about a week after I bought the Explorer bundle. I asked nicely, and RP immediately gave me a free key for it. If you like synths- there is a lot to Explore in this bundle ?. Yes, there is a lot of old stuff, but a number of the synths have old versions included for back compatibility I suppose. A new user can just ignore the early stuff. RP is constantly updating and adding features to their titles, and the point upgrades have been free so far. Massive number of presets, and the newer synths have "easy" parameter pages with reduced controls to make it easier to tweak without diving into the manual. RP has been posting YT videos about every week for a long time with tutorials, tips, and development update commentary.

I had the free Arturia Lab "Lite" in my Arturia account (also own Pigments 3). My Arturia account offer for Lab V was $34.33, so I fed the GAS monster.

I did a quick check and found about 21 Gig in use on my boot drive (by Reason 11 Suite). Could it be the high res graphics rendering? According to this thread https://forum.reasontalk.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=7523824 When you load at a new zoom level for the first time, all the plug ins have to render, and it can take a while. They are supposed to cache for faster future loading. I am not going to Plus, but might go for 12 if the "own it forever" upgrade price is fair. I would like to know if your future loading(s) of a fixed project are faster. I am only interested in using the Rack, and I usually load it empty and add what I want after. I would be fine (I think) with picking and sticking with a fixed zoom, if that is what it takes to get (near) the performance of 11. <edit> NM. Gah- $3? Installing...

I am guessing that you took the "early release" of version 12? I am still on 11 using the Rack- maybe still optimizations needed? 11 seems to work fine and fast for me.

We're giving you 3 new features, so for the next 3 days you can get 3 months of Reason+ for only 3 dollars! Simply enter this coupon code at checkout.* 333 https://www.reasonstudios.com/

The last time I experienced the issue was Jan 21, so it was the release version at that time. However- due to the problem, I changed my behavior and quit using the tempo arrows until just recently testing it again in 2021.6. So I don't know just when the change happened- sorry! -edit- Also- the data does not send on mouse up for me- I have to click somewhere outside the tempo window (Win Pro 21H1)

I had not used the tempo track until today, but UJAM seems to be tracking changes in my brief test with no issues so far. ?

Yep, that was my post. I agree that I am no longer getting the problem I reported. My issue was related to changing the tempo via mouse drag. The CW behavior with all plugins I have tested has now changed- The tempo will not change "live" WHILE you are dragging- you have to let go and click somewhere else for the tempo change to be sent to (or recognized by?) the plug-in. I am only guessing that some VSTs (UJAM) were getting over loaded by the stream of tempo change data from CW.
