Reason 8

what a crock of shit.

Looks like it's turned into Sony Vegas (well as it's just audio more like Sony Acid Pro)

€129 for what is essentially just a new UI, and a guitar amp Rack Extension.

definitely not spending any more money on Propellerhead Software.

Did Altern 8 even have anything to do with this?

lol I still use 5.

The Hateful 8

now with 15% less workflow-crippling design decisions!

still no VST support tho, but now it's easier than ever to make stuff that sounds like it was made in reason!

anyone is a pro something on software,

pro ableton, pro logic,

i'm a pro reason, simply because i've started with the version 2 and i keep using it,

i'm with the 7 now and it's a great great tool, the sound is better then never and works perfectly, 120€ for the update is not cheap tho

but i gonna do it anyway,

I only just bothered to do the upgrade to 6.5 and I got that ages ago. Got the PX7 as well. It's really very good. I can't imagine why I would need to upgrade again for a long time. I had a look at this video and I can't say it would make any difference to me at all.

What do you guys use for tape stop effects in Reason?

Filter and pitch and envelope on tempo. You can also chain the master through ECF-42 Envelope Controlled Filter and tweak the whole mix

wtf are you talking about.

well technically you can rewire another DAW thru reason and use 3rd party VSTs that way, but then, might as well just use the better DAW you're rewiring into reason.

I think he's aiming at your logic that what's made on Reason's own devices instantly sounds like Reason - which of course isn't true. Any musician that calls himself serious doesn't use presets and if they do they camouflage them, but the same could be said about any VST. It really doesn't matter what you use but how you use it. Do you think that first three LPs by Flying Lotus sound like Reason? Because they were mostly made in Reason. I personally think the Reason devices are very flexible and easy to achieve what you want. Peace

I still think Reason is just the best VST ever.

this,

not because it's true, because i know how to make the sound i want, and it never filed me.

if not enough, i connect with cubase so i can have that vst addition

i've seen many big production made 100% Reason only

on Reason if you know how to manage those cables and filter you can have superb textures

I think (for everybody's sake) we should just drop this "NOT VST support still? WTFFff"

Propellerhead have their shop online where big VST developer groups have different synths and effects for sale - and its ALOT. A big bunch of different kind of instrument, sample packs, studio FX's and racks

Bedroom programmers can also sell their synths and packs over the PH shop as well.

And that its great. Refill can almost be compared to VST.

this is a joke. reason 5 is the balls, guys.

Can someone tell me please what the main differences beetwen Ableton and Reason are. except of (Session view, look and max/msp support)

Looks a bit different and doesn't have native VST/i support, apart from that a DAW is a DAW is a DAW - different workflow for different folks.

i like the old old versions because the sequencer was a lot more simple... i could work 2x faster back then

agree

also, i'd pay money for a vst version of reason's rv7000 reverb. so lush!
