Sampling

So I’ve been using sample instruments for a really long time (primarily kontakt libraries), but lately I’ve been thinking more and more about trying to sample the large collection of guitars/basses I’ve acquired over the years. I’ve never really messed with any of the samplers in Reason, but I feel ...

Re: Reason is Amazing!

I was introduced to Reason in college in a class called MIDI - Electronic music. Right about that time I was looking to purchase my first real daw (I think I owned mixcraft at the time and I didn’t like it), and for various different classes I was taking (audio school) I had been using Pro Tools and...

This sounds "radio ready". Did you mix and master it in Reason? Well done.
Yep, everything was in Reason.

Re: (pop-punk/90s) Bedroom Demos

Nice sound... I like hearing this kind of music out of Reason. Great vocals! I've also shifted to another DAW after about producing about 70 mostly rock backing tracks on Reason. I'd probably still be with Reason if they added sequencer workflow improvements; will be interesting to see what comes o...

Re: (pop-punk/90s) Bedroom Demos

Good songwriting/arrangement very 90s, I like that by the way what bass guitar did you used for recording? It was a Fender MIM Jazz bass, but the fact that the bass is clearly audible is mainly due to the fact that I high passed the guitars pretty hard and pushed them further back in the mix. Also,...

Guitars and bass were recorded with DI directly into Reason using Bias FX for the amp sim. Vocals were recorded with an SM7B. Drums were EZ drummer.
Great work! Thanks for sharing.

(pop-punk/90s) Bedroom Demos

This collection of demos was collectively the last thing I recorded in Reason early last year. I've moved on to another DAW, but I stumbled into these demos again on my hard-drive and decided they didn't sound too bad so I released them. I hope you guys enjoy them. https://open.spotify.com/album/3Z7...

Re: Iceland - Music Video (Ambient Orchestral)

Dang... now I want Omnisphere lol. I dig it! Did you sync the music to the video within Reason somehow, or did you make the video after you wrote the track and sync it in the video editing software?

Re: (orchestral) Suyudha's Theme

I like the track, but I think it could be better with some more realistic sounding instruments. You might want to check Spitfire Audio's Labs, Project Sam's Free Orchestra, and Orchestral Tools' Layers.

Ok, i keep silent. Just perhaps very different tasks\matter of taste etc
Just, this is the least that i would be afraid to lost.
Hahaha, different strokes, my dude. I should probably say that I used an SSL AWS 948 a lot in college, so maybe it's the nostalgia.

This leaves me with a decent amount of optimism for the plugin. I think the only thing I am REALLY going to miss is the SSL mixer.

Re: I love Reason - and I am worried

I am in a similar boat. I got into Reason with Reason 10 about three years ago, and I have loved every minute I've spent with it, but I find myself wanting features like a video engine/sync, a score editor, better control over midi, and an actual solution for drum comping. I realize Reason wasn't re...

Reason Rack Plugin opinions? Experience in Cubase or Studio One? RRP vs. ReWire?

Hello everyone, I've been using Reason for the last 3 or 4 years, and have loved my time with it, but I am considering that it might be time to move on from it as my primary DAW as it was never really designed to do what I am doing most of the time (orchestral mockups and recording bands). With that...

I spent while just listening to the Final Fantasy 6 soundtrack and then wrote this. I'm not entirely sure I nailed it, but I think this turned out pretty decent.

(Acoustic) Such a Waste

I secretly put this on spotify a couple of months ago just to hold the band name lol. Figured I might as well share it with someone. P.S. If this were a full band track, what genre do you think it would be? Emo? Pop Punk? Rock? I don't really know. https://open.spotify.com/track/70H6GcvbfPNZRyr4w6in...
