im loving reason since long time ago, but i always thought it lacks some essential features like :
- sound files import (dunno how tosay audiowave style, because using a sampler for long files fucking sucks)
- external audio input (so you can process real time sound, what i guess its difficult but it would fucking rule as im using it for live sessions for time to time)
im using reason 4, so my question is if anything of that has been included on newer versions, or just some new fx and shit...
or just, whats new after 4 (i havent even used thor yet, too many buttons :P) ???

Hi Rolf, I haven't used it but I suspect the salt peter in the quench enhances the colors because of the nitrogen. I doubt you can achieve a deep hardening unless you keep the part in the heat for a long time. I usually heat parts for 90 minutes packed in bone charcoal.

Yes, it does have these things now. Check out Reason version 6, which essentially now has Record built in.

thor is really great, you should get into that, i'm using version 5 - the best thing is the things it throws at you once you've connected a few machines together.

Reason 6 will do what you want. Audio import and/or audio record. Big improvement imho.
Also, you can now directly record (and edit) into Redrum, NN-XT etc., which is pretty cool. And for what it's worth, Reason 6 = Reason 5 + Record 1.5 + 3 new effects.

barcielewave gods punished me for spamming your thread and my FL8 went mad today: whatever tempo I try setting it goes back to 127bpm. dunno how to change it, perhaps a reinstall is on the way. or perhaps I should try this Reason thingie
love,
robbie

It's absolutely superb in its current iteration (Reason 6). I've been using Reason Duo since V4 (when record was new). The stability and ease of self-containing tracks is worth the lack of VST support, which is the only thing it doesn't do that I'd like.
95% of all of my music is just done in Reason these days. I've considered selling all my hardware as I don't play out any more and I use it so little.

+1. It's worth buying. I do have a grudging respect for how long the ignition key dongle (which I fucking loathe on principle) has managed to resist cracking. If someone makes a cracked copy, I'll use it, just to free up the USB port, but I'll still pay for future upgrades.
I'm off to the Reason 6 Masterclass in Cardiff tomorrow. Anyone else going?

Quite good. I didn't really learn any new sound techniques, but I learnt a couple of good shortcuts. Nothing that'll speed stuff up huge amounts, but save 2-3 seconds a dozen times a session, so worth knowing. Also a few minor clarifications on CV control that had escaped my notice over the year.
It was also interesting to get a few behind the scenes bits of trivia on the Prop's approach to music software.
I was quite impressed by href="http://www.propellerheads.se/products/balance/" target=_blank>Balance/a> too. It was the first time I saw it in the flesh, but I didn't get to hear it through decent speakers/headphones. The no-clipping option is very clever and "clap a palm to your forehead" obvious when you know how it works.
The other punters were a pleasant enough bunch too.
It was reassuring to see that even people who train people in the software professionally occasionally try to plug ins to other ins on the virtual patch bay too. I always feel like such a retard when I do that ("Fuck's sake, how many thousands of hours have you used this thing?"), good to know everyone does it.

thanks for sharing, ceri!
what are those CV clarifications you got? i think im not using it in a really effective/correct way... i go mad with sync'ed LFO modulating engines parameters and combinators, one of the things i love the most from reason, but i guess you are talking about something different, isnt it?

should get that demo too just to check, i've got v.5 (not giving my serial number away, don't ask) and am still recording with samplers. my next piece of gear will probably be an HSS3i so i'll wait for reason 6...

Only little things like the "length" on a redrum channel doesn't just refer to sample length, but also how long the associated CV-out is triggered when that channel is hit.
Also learnt a couple of keyboard shortcuts, which turned out to be a kick up the arse to make a (computer) keyboard specifically for Reason, which I'd been meaning to do for years (just has all the icons for the shortcuts on the keys). Last one I did was for Re-Birth over a decade ago!
Have just set my Reason setup back up at home. It's brilliant stuff, I no longer have "gear acquisition syndrome" nor the desire to keep on learning new DAWs and VSTs like I used to. I can do absolutely everything I want in Reason*, now that I no longer have any real interest in playing live. This means I spend vastly more time doing the music and less doing the peripheral geeky stuff.
*Yes, I know Reason can be used Live and it's getting even better for this with each iteration; it's just that it's not really great for playing live, unless you're proficient keyboard player/finger dummer, compared to say Ableton Live.
