Hi - I know this has been delt with endlessly... If someone cd just point me to the best source for me to read I'd appreciate it. Not sure exactly how to narrow it down to look in archives.
First of all, Reason is not just 'some soft synth', it's as many soft synths as your computer can handle and you need to put together a compatable midi file right from the start. I'm pretty sure Jammer is not ReWire capable, so that's not an option.paresh said:If I expand into Reason or some soft synth, I never understood midi mapping or configuration or whatever i have to do to get set up.
Yes and no. In the case of Reason you are dealing with many, many more options and possiblilties than GM2 is capable of. If you read in the Jammer documentation that it will support VSTi's (soft synths that conform to the VST standard) go here and search for Triangle II, Synth One, Superwave 8, Free Alpha and any other free synth you can find.Also does the new soft synth then take the place of the VSC as if it were a hardware module?
Soft synths fill the role of modules - they all have sound sources of varying types and kinds. Reason has all of it's sounds built in and they're very good ones. You might want to consider looking at getting a host sequencer which is both VSTi and ReWire compatable like Tracktion. Download the demo and see if you like it as much as I do.paresh said:Anyway in that case I still don't understand if I will need a module of some sort to provide sound?
