Reason 3.0

Evolved	Date: December 5, 2004 @ 10:01 PM Announced by the props. Only beta testing now, but there are a few screenshots at theire site. No release date yet however.
w0rds	Date: December 5, 2004 @ 11:40 PM not many changes announced until now, though. upgrading from 2.5 to 3.0 should have many more new features. anyway, i'm personally looking forward to that new file browser. the actual one is kinda messy, i think.
dandellion	Date: December 8, 2004 @ 11:28 AM new browser announced... and some new things too.... but, the thing's gonna work on xp/2000 only... and very soon I'm switching to linux. time to sat good bye
Evolved	Date: December 8, 2004 @ 12:32 PM I think the combinator and the Mclass will be the musical instruments and effects breakthrough. the browser will be just a very needed upgrade. about linux.... well... I'm no expert in this field but you can always try to load Reason with Wine or VMware. but then again. if you work with linux, I'm sure there are other good VST enabled hosts out there.
Evolved	Date: December 24, 2004 @ 8:38 AM well actually. I was hoping for a new synth, one with more 'analog' capabilties. up until now whenever I wanted a good synth sound I needed to search my samples or create one of my own in z3ta. subtractor and maelstrom are only good for bass sound and even in that category they are bellow standard.
tsand19151	Date: December 25, 2004 @ 2:57 AM i'm a beta tester!!!! haven't have the time to really get into it but the new compressor and mastering modules are hot....really nice..the combinator seems interesting...will spend more time after the holidays....
spiralmux	Date: December 27, 2004 @ 2:45 AM The Subtractor can be very good, but the preset patches don't do it justice. You really need to tweak the hell out of it.
Evolved	Date: December 28, 2004 @ 8:40 PM yes I know, I managed to get some serious detuned saw leads with it. but this has happen only when I disected patches from vanguard. even then I needed to layer another subtractor to it for extra fatness.
Stercesderised	Date: April 14, 2005 @ 2:15 PM I picked up 3.0 recently, and love it. I used an MAudio controller with it, the radium 49, and it's worked great for me. The browser feature is much better than 2.5, and the combinator is sweet. Also, the MClass stuff is great, but definitely should be placed after the mixer in my opinion.

imemine	Date: May 3, 2005 @ 4:30 PM Should I buy this? I hear that the drums are really good (cymbals specifically) and I would be using this primarily for drums.
Evolved	Date: May 8, 2005 @ 5:48 AM There is a combinator patch for drums made by Hybrid themselves. This is more than enough to proove the quality of the drums.
jack	Date: May 25, 2005 @ 5:35 PM The demo is damn awesome. I'm definitely upgrading from 2.5
imemine	Date: May 25, 2005 @ 5:49 PM Evo, The combinator patch you are referring to is an electronic kit, right? I’m interested in acoustic kits mostly.
Evolved	Date: June 8, 2005 @ 5:28 AM hybrid do nu skool brakes. although it's electronic it still has some real studio properties. but there are kits for rock, if that's what your'e looking for.
camdizzle	Date: August 17, 2005 @ 6:04 PM i recently got reason 3.0, i havent got any instruction manual or anythin so i basically learnt everythin myself, i ve made 15 beats in two weeks n im just lookin to expand my knowledge on the program. im wud like to kno if its possible to take a sample and make it sound high pitched without the tempo of the sample increasing, also i used the subtractor and malstrom devices all the time because they re the only devices that u can use with the keyboard attatched, i just wonder if u can use others ? if someone could help me id be very greatful, thanks

monkvolcano	Date: August 18, 2005 @ 4:58 PM well.. if you want to take a sample and make the pitch higher without making it faster, you have to have a wave editor that has time and pitch warping capabilities and all that.. Reason doesn't have anything like that... but there are a bunch of apps that do now a days.. you can in FL studio I know, and Cubase.. and probably sound forge. and acid pro.. i think there's quite a few more than that also.. what do you mean that the subtractor and the malstrom are the only one you can use the keyboard with... if by "use the keyboard with" you mean controling it with the keyboard. I'm pretty sure that any device can set to be controlled by a midi controller.. but if you ask me, malstron and subtractor are the two coolest things about reason.. redrum is pretty cool too.. what exactly are you trying to do that you can't? good luck...
Veracohr	Date: August 23, 2005 @ 2:12 AM Have any of you actually paid for the upgrade from Reason 2.5 to 3? There's no way I would pay for that. There is nothing I would use that is new in Reason 3. The Combinator is completely pointless, at leat with the way I use Reason. The "MClass Suite" is potentially the best new thing in Reason 3, but I kind of doubt it's really "mastering quality". Besides which, considering I use Reason only as a softsynth to accompany hardware synths through a sequencer/DAW, I have no use for the "MClass Suite". The new browser may or may not be usefull to me, but I've not had any problems with the old one. Controlling motorized faders also is if no use to me. And Propellerheads' website says something about a bigger soundbank. Considering most of the samples that came with Reason 2.0 are mostly useless, and the fact that I don't use synth presets, a bigger soundbank is also of no use to me. What really pisses me off is that I'm trying to do a song together with egac, but I'm limited because my Reason 2.5 can't work with his Reason 3.0. A really usefull feature would be to make it backward compatible. So is Reason 3.0 worth $129 to anyone using 2.5?
monkvolcano	Date: August 23, 2005 @ 2:38 AM shit... you can't load reason 2 into 3.. that is total bullshit.. i agree.. there's nothing that makes 3.0 worth the upgrade to me.. they should've made some of the basics better.. the piano roll in reason sucks.. most of the stuff they added just seems like a gimic.
egac	Date: August 23, 2005 @ 3:05 AM veracohr is right fuckin' reason 3 i wish i just kept 2.5 or 2.0 because he cant load my file and thats just stupid i mean why the fuck would you not be able to open a file? also i think mclass is potentially cool but i use much better plugs and the combinator i mean really thanks a lot guys you can do the same thing with spiders and what knot. i feel riped off i mean seriously i thought you could still share files this is worse than 2.5.
shadowself	Date: August 23, 2005 @ 12:02 PM It is seriously not compatible with 2/2.5 files? That is utterly ridiculous. I am not upgrading.
Veracohr	Date: August 23, 2005 @ 2:53 PM Shadowself: our problem is that I can't open a Reason 3 file on Reason 2.5. I don't know about the other way around.
camdizzle	Date: August 28, 2005 @ 6:16 PM thanks monkvolcano for the help! and with the malstrom and subtractor thing i was just meaning are those the only two things u can get sounds out of apart from the sampled stuff from dr rex etc. but theres the orkesta sounds which im using more of so its k. theres one more thing which is that if u want to do a remix and u have an acapella.. how do u get it so u can make it so its all the right tempo etc. and if u hav an acapella can u sample certain bits from it because all i can do at the moment is hold down one key on the keyboard and let it play it all.
shadowself	Date: August 28, 2005 @ 6:22 PM OHHH! When you said "A really useful feature would be to make it backward compatible", I thought you meant that it... wasn't backwards compatible... scratching head
