cclarry Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 Reason 11.2 is here! And Reason Rack Plugin has been updated with probably the two most requested features: MIDI Out and Drag MIDI notes to track. Open Reason to get your free update now.https://www.reasonstudios.com 1
kitekrazy Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 Meh! Funny how they are marketing use our DAW in another DAW. There are better 3rd party VSTs one could spend $400 on. I've had a license since 4 but so far skipping this one at $129.
Fleer Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 Upgrading from 10 to 11 Suite. Good value, $1200 worth of Rack Extensions for only $100 more than the regular upgrade. 2

It will bloat your OS drive since they haven't come up with a way to store extras on another drive like other DAW do. I'm not into the makelink crap since I don't do that with any other DAW. It has more value than Live's Suite. When you have other DAWs you've probably have an arsenal that's much better than those REs.
ZincT Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 (edited) Just trying to use MIDI out from the Reason Rack Plugin in CbB but it cannot be selected for some reason (no pun intended). Like this --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SR_qQDGHuI (wish they wouldn't always use Ableton Live for these demos). By the way, it works fine in Studio One Pro 4. Any ideas Reason users?

Matthew Sorrels Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 That's odd. MIDI Output is enabled on mine with the new version. But I have auto-plugin scanning on startup enabled. If you don't perhaps you need to do a manual scan to update the settings for the Reason plugin (since they changed with this release)? 2

Thanks for your reply Matthew. I was pretty sure that I re-scanned but just did another re-scan to make sure and CbB didn't find any new plugins. Anyway, I thought I would try again and strangely "Enable MIDI output" is now selected by default and works fine. Go figure! ? Cheers ?
Matthew Sorrels Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 I'm not sure I trust the CbB new plugins count. I'm am pretty happy about this update. Since I jumped on version 11 thinking I could use the generators inside CbB and was crushed when that wasn't included. While certainly not worth full price, I'm pretty sure I didn't pay all that much for it (less than $200). For that it's a pretty good deal. A ton of instruments and now MIDI generators. The only complaints I have left is the non-configurable install data directory and the loss of rewire (which I really never used but I hate losing things). 1
SmokeyJ628 Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 At least on Windows, it's pretty quick to set up the libraries and such to install on another drive. You do it once, and you never have to think about it again. 1
simon Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 slightly off topic (!) - reason 11 (from 10) is on my 'wishlist'. I Haven't seen it discounted anywhere yet. Anybody have any clue when we might see that appear ? 1
cclarry Posted February 21, 2020 Author Posted February 21, 2020 Currently, lowest price I can find is $114.81 at JRR with code FORUM https://www.jrrshop.com/propellerhead-reason-upgrade 1

ZincT Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 I am enjoying Reason 11 Intro and the Rack Plugin which I got in a half price sale around Christmas. I am thinking that I will upgrade to standard Reason 11 when there's a sale (upgrade is currently £239 https://www.reasonstudios.com/shop/product/reason-11-upgrade-for-introlite/ ) and I'm also keeping an eye on KVR . I really like some of the players in Reason and that new Beatmap player looks cool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNGxdyTevzs (not in my version though). I also noticed that I have nearly £50 of rewards in my account from players and other Reason stuff (Korg Polysix) I bought in the Christmas sale. 1
Fleer Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 Do check out the Suite version though, as it holds an amazing bunch of stuff for not much more than the regular upgrade. 1 1

I CAN enable Midi Output but after that I am trying to figure out how to use a PLAYER ( the Arpeggio Player ) so as to control a VST added to a track in Cakewalk?? Anyone fancy a quick dummies guide on how to do this?
Cristian Posted February 25, 2020 Posted February 25, 2020 Nice of them to provide this. I'm also in the camp that got Reason Intro for half-price at Christmas. Europa is a really nice synth worth the discount price on its own, and you can also use any other rack extensions. 1
