The NoteFX plugins of S1 4 are very basic, and mostly not on par with the competition, such as the super limited and hard to use Chorder.
Ideally, Presonus would improve them and make them like Propellerhead's reasons players, and, like Properllerhead, create an open SDK giving the possibility for other software houses to develop & market players.
Just compare:
- Chorder vs Reason's Scales & Chords
See also Cubase's Chord Pads, Proximity, & Assign (Chord) Pads from Chord Track
- Arpeggiator vs Reason's Dual Arpeggio
Then see what's possible with:
Euclidean Rythms
Quad Note Generator
Drum Sequencer
Kompulsion
Other: Cubase's MIDI input transformer has no equivalent in S1:
More generally now that S1 has reached a very high technical level, I'd like the devs to concentrate on creativity tools & ways to accelerate processes to not lose the creative juice, just like with many parts of Reason, Live or Cubase.
