It would incentivise more of us to upgrade for sure. I'd already bought Friktion though. I upgraded... then requested a refund because benefits of 12 didn't match up with the cost. When they announced the price hike, I upgraded from 11 suite again, ONLY because I might acquire a 4K screen in the future and I didn't want to pay such a massive amount of money for so few gains. If Reason Studios don't sort out the shitshow that is the equivalent of a beta dot upgrade to Reason 11, then I'm done with Reason Studios forever.

13:24 Would love to see this level of UI enhancement added in the future, it is a potentially nice clean method to convey to users of the combi exactly what a control is affecting and the range it applies to.

I use it in live performances all the time. In fact even though I can open it as a vst in Ableton where I use click tracks, I typically slave reason standalone to Ableton via rewire and send most of my Panorama P4 controls through Ableton and into Reason 12. This allows me to have my keyboard control both Reason AND Ableton with a dedicated filter knob on the Ableton Live Audio track which all my synths come through while having various sounds from reason assigned to other tracks in Ableton. This is all controlled live via keys, a Looptimus pedal, volume pedal for controlling multiple parameters etc etc... ...and I'm a guitar player, not primarily a keys/synth guy. I to all of this including vocal processing live.

I love that you've upgraded the Combinator after all these years. I've always said it's Reason's greatest tool. However, I'm going to wait to upgrade until you add at least 2 of the following: stepped knobs, radio buttons, cycling buttons, momentary buttons, x-y/joystick controls, group editing(i.e. being able to select 16 knobs and turn them into faders in one click, instead of building the thing, deciding you really should've used faders instead of knobs and then having to change it one control at a time), value-responsive displays, per-patch remote map exporting, and, of course, double the amount of current possible controls(from 32 to 64).
