Music Mind Labs has rebranded purely as ELK and they are now offering Elk Audio OS as an Open Source audio operating system and development kit for Raspberry Pi.
The first piece of news we've had from the newly rebranded Reason Studios is to introduce Scenic. It's described as a cinematic hybrid instrument for tension, suspense, relief and joy.
The Helium Quad Evolving Synthesizer Rack Extension fuses synthesized waveforms with real instrument waveforms to crossbreed hybrid alien/human sounds controlled by a very dark interface.

Reason 10 Intro retains all the really useful stuff like VST support, Player Devices and Ableton Link and lets you play with 16 tracks and a decent selection of synths and effects. It's a great value DAW.
Crackly old Hammond Novachord gets the Rack Extension treatment for Reason as the Champagne Supernova. Perfect for that old sci-fi home movie you're working on.
VIDEO
Konarie have invented hardware MIDI control in Propellerhead Reason by mapping their new Chirp synth to the discontinued Behringer BCR2000 and selling stickers to go on it. None of this makes sense.
