Guys, iv been fidiling around with Reason 2.5 for a while now, and I must say its a fantastic program. I will soon upload a few Tracks I made with Reason, when I get my Internet back. But for now let me just say, dont waste your time with Fruity Loops, if you are a newbie producer. With Reason i learned how to pobebrly use a Compressor, what an LFO filter does, and how to probably program a synth, the learning curve is incredible if you study other peoples songs.....damn, I wasted so much time with fruity loops....its a pity. And in combination with Abelton Live Reason is unbeatable...well almost |

fucking germ, stop throwing Captial letters around the place |

And its so fucking easy to program Techno Loops with Reason too. You just take the a sliced loop. Extract the snare drum the bassdrum, and the other percussive elements you like, program a loop with these samples, filter the whole pattern thru a lowPass/HiPass etc etc Filter, and layer the same drum patterns over another just with other samples...and diffrent filter settings, voila. Instant Techno |

...this program is just so fucking great.....Venetian Snares BEATS, you think they are complex ? Not at all if you know how to do it, its easy as fuck to produce these snare rushs, and insane fast beats in Reason 2.... It all makes sense to me now, the workflow in reason 2 is just totally diffrent than in Fruity Loops..... |

i use it for 2 years now. all my music is made with it. pure class. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
thats why i hate German, stupid Grammar Rules. |
||||||||
|

Alexander Kowalski, London Electricity, Samuel L. Session, Liam Howlett, Adam jay.....etc etc etc, all use Reason to produce their tracks |

I started with Floops and got Reason about 2 years later. I still use Floops, but I'd say my time between them is about 70% Reason, 20% Floops, 10% others. I've recently really gotten into Subtractor programming, you can do some really cool stuff with it. I'd definately say Reason is a lot easier than Floops for "commercial" stuff like DnB, Dance, Techno, etc. but I still do most acid tracks in Floops. |
||||||||

|
|
True, you can get most off those commercial sounding lead (that obnoxious Jp8000 Trance Lead for example) and pad sounds out of subtractor. |

"Venetian Snares BEATS, you think they are complex ? Not at all if you know how to do it" ..yes.. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Well of course it takes a certain effort to program and rearange these beats.... Http://www.peff.com Go there and download the HyperDrummer Template. |
||||||||

I really havent got time to learn it, I've been working through the tutorial all summer and I've only done about fuck all of it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how do you study other people songs? by listening to them or do you download reason files somewhere, or do you mean the standard ones coming with it? |

i have used Reason for about 3 years...my friend introduced me to Reason 1.0 and i have advocated its use ever since....i bought Reason 2.5 when i bought my iBook last year, and Reason continues to be the mainstay of my work. but having said that, i would much prefer to work with hardware synths - i just really prefer the sound and the knobs |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yup, there is a huge reason community on the net |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh and hardware samplers and drum machines |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Reason is the shit man! I am looking forward to rewiring with live 4. I see my whole musical horizon shifting forward. : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's ok...i like it for beatz programming |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
vsnares beats are easy if you rewire reason through cubase and you use a certain vst plugin |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't agree...it's easy to do em dry or with a multitap delay. u just need to know the programming techinque. |
||||||||

With Reason i learned how to pobebrly use a Compressor, what an LFO filter does, and how to probably program a synth floops could have taught you that, if you used your brains a bit |

"With Reason i learned how to pobebrly use a Compressor,what an LFO filter does, and how to probably program a synth." sounds like an adwert... |

Im bored with reason |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Its to basic |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i learned to programme beats in reason before i used it with cubase |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well of course it is....I guess Cubase would be the next logical step for me....however, what I was trying to say is, that with REASON its probably easier to "learn" the basics of producing electronic music....I dunno, i find Reason more User Friendly than Fruity Loops, especially the Interface |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It is as basic as your imagination. I have only ever found it limiting on a couple of occasions when i had to use something else. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i use reason. personally i love it. skink: i'm a bit surprised you use reason; wound't have guessed. which instruments do you use the most? (i'm wondering if maybe you use the maelstrom's filters?) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
impulse tracker pisses all over reason |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Choice of software is far less important than a) having the willingness to experiment, b) having an ear, c) having the time to work on your shit, and d) having the dedication to use that time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I hardly ever use the malstrom it really pisses me off! Hmm, apart from that i use everything else. Don't forget that i use other things as well. I quite often find myself doing stuff in cool edit pro 2 like sequencing. I have taken recently to making my beats in cep just doing it by ear i find the results usually flow much better. I mustn't forget to mention audiomulch either but reason is where most of the magic happens : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have only ever used the malstrom to good effect twice. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

ive been using reason since 1.0, and i bought reason 2.5 and i really do enjoy it. I make pretty much everything in reason, you can do so much with it if you abuse it a bit, use your imagination. Although it can be a little limiting as it doesnt support plugins, i dont find this much of a problem, if i need to use another program/plugin thats fine. but i mean, each to their own, i think reason is great, and if you dont thats fine also. love from Ash. |
