-- New Reason Version??

New Reason Version??

hmm...I'm guessing it'll be some type of module where you can combine different reason modules [maelstrom, subtractor, nn-xt, etc.] and combine them into one patch, acting like a single instrument.
Sounds pretty nifty to me since you normally layer a lot of modules within Reason anyway -- any thoughts??

the bit below looks weird, with another rack placed into the combinator.
but if it does what you think it does (actually, i think the same) it could keep things a lot more organised

Yea.
The guys over at propellerheads are currently accepting people who use Reason 2.5 to beta test this 'new version' of Reason. You can sign up at the reason website.

Yeah I read that too, makes me wonder if it's a fake shot or just an easter egg of sorts put in by the developers before final release.

The soundbank should also by more extended than the previous soundbank

"Propellerhead have for a long time been resisting requests from many users to incorporate audio recording, third-party plug-in hosting and other DAW-type features into Reason, and there�s no change to their stance in version 3. Indeed, Propellerhead make it clear that they see Reason as the software alternative to a hardware workstation synth, with the same capabilities for composing, production and now live performance too."

bleh, no vst support

some info on the combi thing and Reason 3.0.

Am saying this here and now, the love for reason is fading for me, i really want new sounds, especially for prog, i really want those Absynth, or atmospehre sounds.

Am begging god that Props add a new powerfull synth in 3.0, or els i would find this entire update worthless.

i agree... to move with the other players this release has to have something fairly special.. vst support would be nice (rewiring is a pain in the arse) just have to wait and see..

vst support will not happen. Reason supposed to be something like a standalone hardware workstation.

Damn, Reason was perfect except for the vst support..
I wonder what they can do better in 3.0 that cannot be done in 2.5

the vst are not inevitably useful as imo one can do everything with synths of Reason. Perhaps it misses a multiband compressor and the possibility of recording sounds as in Cubase.

Actually, I remember reading on the propellerheads.com forum that alongside the ReCombinator, there's gonna be a few new devices in Reason 3.0. "Another new module is MClass, a mastering suite featuring a four-band parametric and shelving EQ, a compressor/maximiser and a look-ahead limiter." [quoted from soundonsound.com]
