Quick question folks,
Any way of automating the tempo in reason? I basically want a track's BPM to double at a certain point. I know I could work around it by simply doubling all note durations (and measures on effects) prior to the speed change, but this would cause some problems with some dr.rex breaks I'm using (no matter how long you spend, you can never double or half space them exactly right and by their slightly offbeat nature, the snap to grid is no help).
Any suggestions? I also have Ableton Lives, so if there's some way of slaving it to the tempo in that then changing the tempo in live, that's an option.
Many thanks.

If it is running as a slave via ReWire to any host application it will follow the hosts BPM.

What can you actually do in Reason out of interest? I always found it a bugger to use.

depends what you want to do ..
it's good - pretty cool to route/patch whatever, stuff. you can get some pretty sounds ... but it is a tad limiting compared to some other stuff out there.
reason 2.5 with the audio and cv splitter is definitely the way to go ..

For sample based loop music there is nothing more stable though. It is particularly good for percussive work, either through Dr.Rex, Redrum or the NN-XT sampler.

I think they really need to sort out the compressor in reason 3. The existing one absolute pony. Also, when you render to wav, it sounds like a monkey has played with the EQ settings of the track and it's not like it is when you play the track within the program.
I agree with ecnadniarb on the percussive front. Dr. Rex coupled with Recycle is fantastic for drum and bass.

Interesting I've always used Cubase and the editor for making beats and I just put the old AO DKL vst i on.

I've always been into the idea of using reason since I heard Squarepusher uses it.

I actually made a suggestion on the propellerhead suggestions forum about tempo automation because it would be an excellent thing to have.
