Reconfiguring the server
Welcome to another blog post regarding developments and updates on Reasonexperts. In the previous article, I mentioned something about the feed being broken. While initially, this article was about a move from Propellerhead. While later on, I discovered there was more to it than just that (which started to become noticeable around the black Friday sales 2018). Since most of the issues are fixed, this weekend I had to roll out a new feature which also included a new configuration change regarding how this web server functions.

Blackhole from eventide
A Reverb is usually a reverb. They are there to emulate a space. This is where reverb has been in different forms to emulate space in different ways we can do it in a digital realm. Plate reverb, small reverb.. terms you probably know by now. Impulse Response brought a new meaning to the idea what a reverb could be sounding like. Because impulse responses is a basic analysis of what the room is doing inside an audio file. This gets translated to what the reverb is doing and ya da ya da.. I won't bore you with technical details in this article.

Updating the shop feed
Today I just want to blog about an issue I started to notice on this site in particular. I am not sure when it happened, the only thing I do know is 'how it happened'. As you may well know on this site I run a custom-made service that updates everything from the Propellerhead Shop. While currently I am involved in a different project that is somewhat related to this idea (more on that later during the month). Therapy i&c driver. While refactoring (read: making changes to the website code) I started to realize that nothing from the Shop feed would update properly.

Control Voltage part 6 Chaotic Signal Processing
Today I will be making use of the BZR-1 Rack Extension to make random state patterns using Control Voltages.
In the end, we'll be setting up a combinator so we can just twist a few rotaries to make changes in the sound real quick

The new direction
I am Hydlide of ReasonExperts. This may not be anything new that I am going to post on this 'blog'. But I want to make it more official (rather than having it as a rumor). Since recently there is a large smear campaign going on (as totally expected) about myself, this site and a vlog post that I posted on the internet almost 4 days ago by the time I am posting this.

Control Voltage Part 5 - Ratchet Sequencing
In this video I will just throw in an idea about how to get ratchet sequencing done using Thor.
While I am mentioning a couple of times an article I wrote about this process (while I am trying to explain it in this video), I will also link you up with the article that goes with it.

Native instruments Komplete
Komplete 12 from Native Instruments has been released since September 2018. While I recently purchased myself Komplete 11 Ultimate edition I thought I would just start to write down my initial thoughts on this Komplete bundle. While I am early in to explore just everything this pack has included, writing down a single article about the contents of this whole bundle would not really do it justice. Therefore, I might start spending some time to write additional articles or make some additional videos while I am exploring this sonic explosion of content. Because that is basically what it is. A total mind-blowing massive amount of sounds.

Reason 10.2 Control Voltage Part 4 - Altering Pitch
Today I am going to use Reason 10.2 and create something creative using the matrix pattern step sequencers to define different ways to alter note information and gate information while using Note CV, Gate CV and Curve CV to alter different patterns in different ways.
While this trick is an old school trick, it is still applicable today since you can also make use of different rack extensions for Reason to make use of a similar setup.
The idea with the note information (as far this video goes) is all about having a second pattern to redefine the straightforward pattern and manipulate the pitch outcome while doing so.

control voltage in Reason 10.2 part 3 splitting CV and using CV notes
Today I am going to talk about two different things. First part is about splitting CV while using a device called the Spider merger splitter. Second part in this video is about some creative usage what you could do when using a normal 'trigger' device and make use of the CV to do something totally different what they supposed to do. Call it creative usage of CV while doing so. Since in the realm of CV anything is possible.

Shape from Lectric Panda
Shape from Lectric Panda is a utility that was originally designed by Lectric Panda and was released as a separate Rack Extension. While synchronous was more an effect process generator where the curve could also be used as an external control voltage output. Shape, on the other hand, is all about that idea yet take it towards a whole different level. When I originally bought Shape as a utility to sculpture a sound in all kind of different ways, I started making use of this device more often especially in terms of Genres like Ambient music, IDM, Breakcore, and Glitch. Part of the beauty lies in the way you can reuse the same pattern, yet do it differently while the waveform progresses over time. So from an evolving point of view, that is pretty much perfect for the genres I just mentioned.

Control Voltage In Reason 10.2 - The Gates - Part 2
am going to make a new series regarding control voltages. Beginning with the basics first (again, but take a different angle while doing this). While in this series progresses over time I will also touch the boundaries on what envelopes do, how you can use those in a CV environment. Touch the subject of modular synthesis. Base stuff around the PSQ-1684 (and some crazy ideas while using this device). And touch the realm of Berlin school while doing so.
In this video I will outline the basics about Gates. What they do, what they can control and how they work.
In a different video I will explain how a curve is setup (since this relates to the idea of gates eventually).
I will come up with some creative ideas on how you can manipulate gates and make it work inside a live performance setup. For instance, use a toggle button to enable something that is called Ratchet sequencing.
