You have a point.

Anyone else feel like reason is hard to get good sounds from. The FSB and Reason 9 sounds all seem really dated and "weak" sounding compared to other DAWs and VST plugins out there. None of the drums are very punchy for example and all the other sounds are flimsy. The only reason I stick with Reaso...

Rap is also really good. Did you do this rap yourself?

I did and thanks for the compliment.

dope.. period

Not normally the style I'd listen to but I enjoyed it :) Some great musical ideas and I think you did a great job with the rap. I think you could make the track sparkle more (if you want to) with some mixing tweaks. eg the kick drum could do with some more space, by high pass filter on the bass. Al...

Mix sounds really good! But composition wise, it could have used some more variation :) Make that p*ssy pop! lol Thanks. I'm still very much a rookie with producing so I do hope to get more variation as time goes on. The good thing is Hip Hop beats don't typically change too much so it won't sound ...

Cables from balance to monitors MUST be balanced cables. Well he says its in the recording so its on the input side. Question to OP: Is it actually on the recording? And if it is, do you use balanced cables for your microphone? Or is it a condenser mic? Then it wouldn't work without a balanced conn...

New song done in reason 7... Let me know what you think.

Does anyone else use balance and have a problem with it picking up radio signals? I'm not sure if it's balance or the microphone or both, but I can here radio broadcasting at some hours throughout the day. It's low but clearly audible and is ruining my vocal takes. You can't hear the broadcast in th...

Yep it's an adult lyric. Personally I find it puerile instead of clever, however in the Hip Hop community... I say that as this won't make it anywhere near Top 40 because of the lyric. But that might just be enough to get attention in the hood. That being the case I think it sounds pretty good but ...

I completed my first track and hoped to get some feedback from the community. Been a while since I've come to this site so we'll see how it turns out.

Please be 18+ if listening... (NSFW warning)

Everything done in Reason 7

Selig (one of the co-creators) made and shared a very nice combinator where the Vinyl-option had no scratch-noises. Look it up if you have not. To clarify, Selig was not a co-creator of ART. That was all Propellerhead. but as I understood it, Selig made the vinyl patch (and maybe others - tape? I f...

I'm only just realizing how useful the Tape setting is on ART. I've been using it on nearly everything (different transform amounts and wetness) and only good things come from it. It has become my most useful sound shaping tool aside from eq. For Hip-Hop beats it adds a warmness to the sound that I ...

Bitley's Fairlight Series, New Atlantis Audio's EVERYTHING (the old collection), Kong's drum sound library and my personal collection of drum sounds.

I think it's pretty cool that some of you guys can hear these kinds of things buy ear. I certainly can't so I'll either find a similar sounding bass and play something myself, or change the direction of the production. Where there is a will... ;) You want to be totally jealous? Check out this video...

Hey thanks to everyone who replied on this. I started fooling around with Reason Drum Kits while waiting for more responses and got a nice drum and percussion combination going that I actually like more than the original idea. It's more of a minimalistic approach than I had intended, but I can easil...

I don't believe there is a totally reliable way to do this in all cases. The obvious cases can be done by ear but it get's tricky for variations that are't as obvious - though a human will still be more able to judge key than any current software since key is a human invention. You will still have ...

Does anyone know how to find the key of an audio loop in Reason? In this case I have a bass loop from a sound pack that doesn't have the key information (I have no idea why not). I have tried the Neptune which isn't much help to be honest. Does anyone have their own method (in the box preferably) of...

Also, thought the C670 doesn't have attack and release controls, there IS an overall adjustment for those parameters via the Time Constant control (faster TCs with lower values). Hope this helps - feel free to ask further questions if I wasn't clear above. :) It doesn't. I was saying I would have p...

Since you're following the Saturator with a device that includes makeup gain (the C670 Compressor), there's really no reason to use a gain stage between the two. You may find instead that it's more useful to use it AFTER the compressor so you can read the peak level at the end of your insert chain,...

-Softube Saturation knob (a little over a 3rd of the way up on neutral) -Selig Gain minus 3 or so dB (that saturation knob has some serious gain issues) - c670 Compressor with about 3 dB gain reduction, time constant about a 1/4 of the way around and about 1.7 dB make-up. If you want drums that are ...

Sh*t I tried to upload my dmg to OneDrive, but this morning it refuses to work properly. Permanent disconnections and upload errors...  :x Internet is broken Thanks for the try... :s0826: I'll post another thread asking if someone could upload it to Dropbox or a file sharing site or something and s...

I don't believe it's caused by Yosemite. I have downloaded the latest 7.1.2 (without FSB) while running under Yosemite and it worked out-of-the-box. I would propose: try downloading again and see what happens. If not, then we could go the next step and provide proven "working" dmg for you via Dropb...
