Ability to separately save generated/tweaked sounds.

For the moment export the sound you want to Beatmaker3, it saves it as a wav. file then you may share it to Audioshare...viola
By the way use the sound file option in the exporting not the Europa sound patch
Also important is to first record your sound patch you have created. I hit record, press down on a C note for four bars for example, then export it as a soundfile to Beathawk3 which saves it as a wav. file, I midi up my Korg keyboard and it works like a charm. Also save your sound in Audioshare app...hope this helps

Good grist to the mill there Mister.

At least it saves them for midi use etc albeit in different locations

Being in this place of unknown does not motivate to spend and unlock the synth.
„We are looking into it“ is not good business

"We are actively working on it" would have sounded so much better. Also concerning is the fact that the woman in charge admitted that she has very little musical background but took some sort of 'Music 101' crash course. She seems a bit too whimsical.

I think the problem is the name of this app. If it was called Europa synth then there would not be as much disappointment. I think Propellerhead calling this app Reason Compact was a bad move as it’s left a lot with false expectations.

On the other hand maybe this app being called Reason Compact is a clue that Propellerhead will build on this and make it a Reason for iOS.

First rule of consumerism should be, don't buy the name, buy the product. I just see a good sounding synth that needs MIDI triggering before I'd buy it. No need to make it more complicated than that. Despite the talk, I suspect "Reason Compact" is probably not going to be much more than it is now, an iOS app to promote PH on desktop. If and when it makes sense to buy it for what it does, rather than vague dreams of its future, they got my money. It's probably smart business for them. Take your existing technology, sell a fragment of it cheap, hint at possibilities but promise nothing more. Ultimately, they're selling Reason, so it makes sense to name and market the iOS app so that association is clear.

What matters in the end is that people like Reason on desktop, and the more who are exposed to it, the more they sell. For iOS, I think the price is REASONable for anyone who wants to use the synth as is, and those who don't, we're free to pass---or possibly get sucked into Reason 10 Lite, and then, well, you know...

Am I on crack or is there no way to save your own patches? Because of thats the case, im literally going to ask for my money back because that is simply unimaginable. Why buy the engine if you cant save your work.

Long time Reason user. Hated the launch. I was getting spam from them about a gift of a free app. Thought it was a customer loyalty thing, when it wasn't a "gift" but a brutally restricted demo.

I brought this up in my app review and they responded that it was a feature that is definitely going to be added, just isn't there yet. Weird I know, but not the end of the world you can still jsut save the project for now.
