shadowself	Date: January 5, 2006 @ 9:41 PM What? The Maelstrom has some deadly sounding synths.
pog	Date: January 5, 2006 @ 9:42 PM reason is a sequencer software much like fruityloops, with a huge exception. It basically emulates a rack system where you can "plug" different units in the rack into each other. This can create infinitely flexible sound canvas's.
TruonGLe	Date: January 6, 2006 @ 4:09 AM reason is a music program . yea..... west syde1!
K3VIN	Date: January 7, 2006 @ 12:49 AM umm it is kinda like an exuse for doing soemthing check dictionary.com

plungerboy	Date: September 14, 2006 @ 5:12 AM Wires, noooooooooooooooooooo! No VST's , noooooooooo! I have no reason to use reason.
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: September 14, 2006 @ 10:31 AM Reason is a music production suite it's tools include 2 sample players (with great sampled sounds, pianos, organs, strings, brass, percussion etc), Redrum (a kick ass step programmed or MIDI input drum machine), Dr. Rex Loop player for playing back drum loops or musical loops in .rx or .rx2 (recycle) format, Subtractor (analog synth), Malmstrom (granular synth with many morphing/sycopating sounds) a virtual mixer, an analog step sequencer, plus various effects. If you click on TAB you see the virtual wires which is great for all kinds of audio routing or rewire. Plus the usual batch of effects (reverbs, delays, compressors, scream overdrive, parametric eq's etc). It doesn't support VSTs but it already includes a myriad of sounds out of the box, Subtractor and Malmstrom can be totally tweaked in every parameter. It is a more difficult program to learn than FL or Acid but it is a very deep and rewarding program if you put a bit of effort into it. I use it extensively and rewire it to Cubase SX3 for even better mixing control.
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: September 14, 2006 @ 10:38 AM There are also many many packs of 'refills' (extra sounds) that can be bought to cover a whole heap of sounds. Virtual wires are totally cool ! Reason is also very light on CPU load, especially if you don't run the samplers on 'linear interpolation' or whatever it is that creates best quality sounds while recording (turn them on at mixdown time) and it's great for producing loops, it has an 'export loop' function, set the left and right hand marker and create loops, I often do this instead of rewiring as I can then directly import loops into Cubase without having to use rewire (loops can be anything from 1 bar to the whole song). YOu can have a tune with like 10 sample players, 4 subtractors, 4 malmstroms, 2 Dr. Rex, redrum and effects and still have the CPU running at around 15-20%. It also supports audio up to 24/96. It's very cool if you stick at it and delivers a lot of bang for buck.
imemine	Date: September 14, 2006 @ 2:57 PM The reason for what?
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: September 14, 2006 @ 5:17 PM reason is supposedly some kind of explanation, casts clarity on things, i.e. the REASON I have a hangover is because I drank a bottle of Jacky D's last night...
ChillinBuzz	Date: September 15, 2006 @ 11:34 AM well, this has to be one of the stupidest threads ever started. congrats to Pog and leedsquietman for bringing a good description of Reason to the thread though. why ask what it is when you looked it up less than 6 minutes later?
DaveWL	Date: September 15, 2006 @ 12:42 PM Do the virtual cables get all tangled up like with real cables?
GeneHilbert	Date: September 15, 2006 @ 12:50 PM virtual snake pit.... LOL
mocarlton	Date: December 30, 2006 @ 9:35 PM great program
