Take Reason 3.0 from Propellerheads .... its fucking amazing, unbelievable a whole Studio RAck with everything you need to Programm Beats and it has a ReWire Connection to Cubase VST .....
It looks like a 19" RAck and you can put into the RAck what you want Drum-Machines Synth Effects and say look like the real ones and you can move the Knobs around with the mouse or an Midi-Keyboard and you can flip the frontside to the BAckside and you can put Cables araund on the BAckside from the Components its like a real Studio ! so its enough commercial ! try it out and you don`t want anything else .....

forget FruitLoops or MAgic MusikMAker !!!!!

kein Problem hab ich doch gerne gemacht ! So also a nice feature is to Converte Samples from *.wav files to *.rex files with Reason Recycle so you can use them in Reason 3.0 as sample with a Sampleplayer Unit

It`s from Sweden so they make good Software and Girls !!!!!

I use fruity loops, its a great program for making beats...its just that its kinda difficult to master all effects and possibilities of the software... If you put some effort into it, you can create just about any beat you want to. On top of that i use a lot of Sony sound effects i added to the FL studio, but reason
is also a good program

Amen to that. It will blow your mind. not to mention the sampler, the synth pads (thank god for the modulation wheel), etc.. .... I still can get really really lost in everything it does.

In the Propellerhead online store it's 449.00 euro's (which would be about 584 US dollars).

I have literally just installed reason 3 this morning and have been playing about with it - linked to cubase.

HERE (http://www.chromium05.plus.com/130207-this.mp3) is the result of this mornings play with it. All beats, chello's, strings etc were done from scratch in reason. cuts added in cubase.

I know it's pretty basic but I am just trying to teach myself again from scratch.

I haven't used reason since the very first version came out. I found it too complex after a diet of soundforge and acid. However - I think I will be doing most of my beats in Reason 3 from now on.

GET IT!!!

Haha, basically....But, I thought you were going to send what you have over to me...Then back to you...No ? I'm still working on Me and Bobaratt's collab...Once I finish that, I will get working on the Alive mix....Sorry for the wait fellas....


Bobaratt: Torrents are another way of downloading stuff off the internet...Like programs, music, and games.....It's not like Limewire where you search within the program....You have to search through torrent websites to find what you want, and must have a Bittorent client....I know that prob, made no sense to you...

No i got it - i think. Kinda like Morpheus? I use that for my, uh, less than moral endeavors.

CosmoKramer
02-23-2007, 06:28 PM
Kind of....In Morpheus, you HAVE to search within the program....But it DOES open torrent files from the internet too.....
