Can you name one single app/plugin/tool that didn't get uploaded because of those REs? How can you know what would be released if those REs weren't coming?

Senseless guess.

 

Aye, I can't know for sure.
But the guess isn't completely senseless, it's based on prior experience. I can name quite a few things that possibly could've been released, but:
1) Beggars can't be choosers.
2) This is completely off-topic.
Let's get back to RE now.

 

Oh, excuse me. I could have sworn you wrote this:

Why would anyone care that software you have no interest in gets released? Why would anyone care that YOU happen to think it's a waste?

As far as us Windows users are concerned (and remember, we're the majority by a large margin) ALL the Mac software released on the sister site is a waste. Might as well just bin it all, right? Or find another Mac user site so it doesn't clutter up the main site with software that's just 'wasted' for the majority.

These are YOUR arguments -- not mine. I'm just reflecting them back at you.

 

But they sure as hell gonna keep on trying, regardless...

 

Back to the topic (can't believe it's me re-railing a topic, I may be sick)...

This is the perfect answer to the OPs second question. There's ProTools SDK, Apple Logic's and so on. Developers just have to port their plugins to another SDK. Of course it's not trivial, I'm oversimplifying but witheir DSP code made is like "This is when I put the main loop of real-time processing in a Reason plugin, this is where I put the plugin features when asked by the DAW (Reason)", and so on.
Maybe some unique features are required for Reason and others not.

Now that I think of it, they invented the whole standard. Propellerheads is something I see every time I install some rewire capable software.

 

I think you miss the general concept. My words were meant to make our kind uploaders earn more money, I hope you understand this once and for all .
You read only what you want and maybe you forgot to read this:

Hi Hammer, not really a request because I don't use Reason but rather an observation.
My point was: Our gently uploaders make money from our downloads and if they don't all own Reason they won't download their posts. My post was rather directed at them, almost a suggestion...

Happy holidays my friend

I only use LogicPro, 15/20 audio plugs, about ten AU Instruments and, of course, many Drums and Samples.
I only record my own songs and don't need anything else, but I like to try out new things and new technologies.

I wish you a lot of fun too

 

I can only go by what you wrote. You're the one who wrote uploading Reason Extensions was a waste -- not me.

Uploaders can't upload what they don't have, can they? Do you suppose they're holding back on the good stuff just to spite Mac users?

I didn't read it because you hadn't written it when you posted what I was responding to.

OK my friend, I surrender...
We don't want to be here until New Year's Eve, do we?

I'm starting to think that the problem is not the explanations (although everything is well written and specified) but the syndrome and for that... I can do nothing!

Happy New Year to all of you

 

yeah dude, I dont get it either.. I have gigs and gigs of smaple packs I thought I would use... but majority of them arent even uncompressed, just the lofi and phonk ones are uncompressed

 

We should have two forum sections. One where people argue with each other and one where they don't.

 

This is why we always tend to avoid any comments that refer to a request for Mac or Win, because these diatribes always end up in a war between users. And this is an example.

 

I agree, unfortunately not on my part

 

Just counted - we got 195 extensions so far. Not bad. Only 500 to go.

 

Fuck's sake...

 

lol i completely forgot this was a thing in fl studio . i saw that super audio cart from impact soundworks and got it without even thinking about it being for reason and then realized i dont even have reason.

so can you also use Ableton inside fl studio or is it only certain daw's


also DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHERE I CAN FIND OR HAVE A YAMAHA DJX-2 REASON REFILL? i found a few pages and links that no longer work but its been like 10 years of searching with zero results

 

I've been using Reason since version 3. Almost 20 years. Legit user for almost 20 years and I LOVE it and it is only this time around that I'm witnessing actual public interest being shown in Reason.

Seemingly R2R have done for Reason, in just a few months, much more than the Propellerheads (now Reason Studios) marketing team have ever done, or could ever dream of doing for Reason in a life time. What a waste of valuable company resources. It's just the beginning, and the Swedish geniuses should already be thanking the Japanese geniuses.

I'm grateful to try Reason many times over the years its what i started with alongside rebirth & cubase but I always come to the same conclusion that as a DAW it's limited & poor workflow in comparison to Ableton & m4live. But of course there are 1 or 2 unique plugins not available in VST that can be used within live but nothing i can't live without.
