Anybody here use REASON??
- Thread starter Mr. D-Sane
- Start date
d sane? you havent played with this yet??
well, my novice opinion might not mean much but i love this program. the only MAJOR con I can see is no audio recording and no midi out. but then again i havent used it to even 20 % of its potential yet. oh yeah, and the sampler has to have .smp files so you have to run your wav and aif samples through the refill packer ( i havent tried it yet but i heard its tricky)

if you got recycle you can do some real slick shit, you can map out the whole break across your keyboard, change the pan, level, etc... of each slice of the sample, very nice.
then the nn19 sampler is the one i spoke of requiring the .smp files, but that shits tight too. its definitely worth a peep. if you have irc or some other form of transfer ill send it to ya, its like 580 megs though.

Ive hurd some rel nice beats made with reason especially Sindustry Http://www.mp3.com/sindustry she uses reason and her shit is tyght. One thing i cant stand with reason is that it doesnt support .sf2 maybe the next release will. Newyz what kinda hardware/software do u use d-sane and phill?
Phil - The sampler can load wavs and aiff files too, you're just clicking on the wrong part to load the sample. Only if you click on the load button on the left will it only load .smp patch files. If you click on the folder above the blue screen on the sampler you can load most all sound files.
DSane - Reason is dope, best part is, it can be rewired into cubase, so even though you can't record audio in reason and have midi outs in reason, you can load it up to be slaved to cubase as a module through rewire, and still use the shit such as reason's drum machine, fx, subtractor module, sampler, etc. The automation in Reason is dope too, ANYTHING can be automated and it's easy to do. I love reason, and I'm waiting for the new version 2.0 with the improved sampler and new modules/fx.
If you'd like, I'll shoot you a copy, hit me up (925)250-0299
Ghost Ryder - The MPC is tight, but I love the control you get with Reason. It'd be coo to hook up the MPC to control Reason via MIDI, but then again, that'd be quite a waste, I think a good combo would be to use the MPC with cubase and reason. I'm using my Kurzweil K2600s with Cubase and Reason.
ill3k - the next release WILL suport sf2 (from what I hear)

no it wont fuck up your other reason program, im on a cable connection so, im on aim now if you can get on before 10 ill be here. you can actually detach the sequencer window from the rack now! but other than that it looks identical to reason 1.0.1, not 1 cosmetic change. its small too so it shouldnt take long to make the transaction
DSane - The learning curve isn't too steep, especially if you already have an understanding of how a studio is set up and also how most software sequencers work.
Phil - I heard about the detachable sequencer, that sounds nice, but does it also have the new Maelstrom synthesizer? Also, how's the new sampler (can you reverse in it, instead of having to reverse the sample before loading it). ANy new FX too? I wasn't able to get on last night, wanna try again for tonight? Hit me up if you plan to be on (925)250-0299, I'll try to get on too. THanks
