Reason 3.0 general help

ScottSo	Date: May 1, 2006 @ 5:33 AM So I have been really interested in creating music through software for a long time, and I am considering buying Reason 3.0 . The problem is I have absolutely ZERO experience in this sort of thing, so I am worried I will have no idea what to do and will never be able to use it. Any suggestions? I browsed amazon for some tutorial books. anybody know of one that is particularly good? thanks a lot for any help.
tome89	Date: May 4, 2006 @ 5:18 AM I learned how to handle Reason 3.0 over a month by myself, just doodling. Can't be that big deal... but I'm freakin psycho at such stuff. Well, Fruity Loops is said to be a lot easier to learn, but Reason is better for advanced production. Reason comes with an operation manual as well. Rtfm! If you learn by yourself you'll probably find it easier later on too. And you won't need to have a book making music for you. Talent is the key.

If not just get Reason Adapted, it's the stripped down version...you can upgrade to 3.0 from there when you're ready. Most of the tutorial books are pretty good. The MANUAL is INVALUABLE!!!! It amazes me whan people come here and ask how to do something simple when it's right in the manual. The FIRST thing I always do with any new software or hardware it read the manual. There is also an excellent video tutorial on the Reason site.
INoxx	Date: May 6, 2006 @ 7:18 PM Reason is very user friendly i think because of its rack interface. Well, the manual is great, but i think u may also learn a lot by downloading song file from the huge reason communauty and of course by experimentating. Anyway combinator on r3.0 makes things much more easy comparing to R2.5. I really love this website: http://www.reasonstation.net. The forums are really valuables and people can help u if u have some difficulties.
