Reason Tips and Tricks

[JSprayaEntertainment]

I Like My Reason A Lot . but that's pretty Crap compared to routing Reason into FL Studio and use "Wave Candy" which has Oscilloscope , spectrum , Meter & Vector Scope ...

How Ever i Under Stand Wave Candy nor FL 9 was even out when u made this video .

Good Stuff im checking out part 2 of your Vid Next

[axelsteel05]

Is it just me or do you sound a lot like Trent Reznor... Nah he has a deeper voice... but it made me listen to the advice!

[MegaJuevos]

Dude....nice!

Awesome little trick here. Totally cool. Again, it doesnt color your sound right? Its only so you can visualize the freq. spectrum correct?

Well done!

[gennaro1980]

optronix rocks....he's a PC user!

[chemam]

Not only did I learn something VERY useful to a starting Reason user/musician... You also made laugh out loud a few times, love the sense of humor...

Keep it up :)

[666gary666]

VERY good tutorial, i was looking for a way to view sounds in reason :D thanks, subscribed.

[plasticro8ot]

I think im too stupid to relize this tut, well ok i see that visual yellow light eq flash goin on and i even hear gentle changes, but i want to put some more noise, how do i do that?

Thx anyways! Great tut.

[angrymcfist]

Nice vid. Very useful tool I reckon. I just put it in with one of my tracks and saw how my obsession with bass has overshadowed my mixing!!

Cheers mate

[kajenS]

your very good, I need someone like you to work with me.. wow your amazing !!!!! =)

[Vectorixx]

call me an idiot but, what exactly is the main advantage/effect/benefit of using 2 vocoders as equalizers ?

btw: nice explained

[optronix001]

having a visual of the sound or music while you are working can be helpfull with getting your EQ balance right!

[Vectorixx]

k thx

[sureshgunners]

Excellent. WEll done and explained

[biggal21]

verrrrry cool man

[cthompson135]

Awesome video with reason. It reminds me of Chris Thompson's Hit Songwriting videos...fantastic!!!

[JJClayton05]

hi, i am using this for my options (GCSE)(Btec-Music) so this helps =] Any tips? im tryin to find a good bassline

[oneism1984]

wow, that is such a rad trick.  I always wondered why they didn't include that type of display in the mixer. best tutorial videos Ive seen came from you. thanks.

[STINGERminded]

Nice vid!!!

[semosthegreat]

I was looking for soemthing like a spectral analzer!

Great video thanks

[chicomota]

This is Very useful! ive seen other tutorials and mostly they suck.

[maxiart]

very interesting and easy to follow...

you are great!

[mindstormspc]

just amazing ur work nice series

[davekropf]

What a fantastic tip! I teach a college digital composition class, and this is going in the curriculum! Nicely done.

[optronix001]

Thanks for that. Make sure you lett'em know where to go for more!!

[nkruman]

There is a problem when you add the vocoders, they change the sound, how do you fix it, and keep the sound clean with that type of setup ?

[optronix001]

what the video again..you will notice that you final audio output does not go thru the vocoders, thats why you use the audio merger splitter..so you can share the signal and give the vocoders some action as well :) hope this helps.

[juga0nought]

yeah i was following this to the t and was like " why the hell does it sound the same?" (duh!!!!!!!!) i finally realised after watching and copying not the first time not the second but three times! despite your comment at the end of the vid- its just a visual equaliser. thanks all the same :)

[acqzuel]

10q very much , i was searchin for this kind of "service" from reason :P

[rhemady]

dude, that was funny but thanks for sharing that with us...you seem to know reason inside-out , front and back. good stuff

[afaquerulz]

never saw anyone setting up reason that way.

using vocoders as EQ's and graphic representers of the music...

Its real cool though!

I might start using that in my every reason project now!

[k4nnun]

yeah it makes the sound in stereo

if you do it like reason set it up, it will sound mono-ish

[arwindeboer]

great tutorials dude!

[DJHemlock]

Thankyou so much for sharing this, I'd never thought of doing that! This will be really useful when mastering on my laptop when i'm on the road!

[mechall]

Thank you.

[esebarreto]

Hey man! that's the way I roll too!!! use a vocoder as a spectrum analyzer!! haha!

[Brianprctiv]

Cooooooool!

Thank you!

[BuckyStudios]

"da da da da da da da DA DA!"

[ramadhaniyanto]

LEVEL UP!

[wigz07]

keep em coming...very much appreciated, there is so much to this program, great to see little things people have worked out. How did you actually record the video?

[optronix001]

Thanks wig..the program I use is Camstudio 2.0

[Melokat]

Thank You, thank you, thank you!

[darknomad333]

very good help for the beginner, I also found much use out of this and i am a professional in recording. Great job!!

[WhyEvenAsk]

Thanks for being so detailed and clear in your tips, very good tutorial on a useful technique. I found this to be a very helpful tip actually, I really like to be able to see the sound in the EQ. Peace out dude.

[optronix001]

Thanks! glad you found it helpful. :P

[Andybaby]

How is this tip useful? ie how does thre visual representation help you?

[optronix001]

When I create music and I am mastering...tend to prefer to use a visual medium as well as my own ears to make my final piece of music sound the way I like. I you are familiar with analyzing sound frequencies in music, Then you would find this useful. If not and you just do all your mastering by ear alone...then this would not interest you.Analizing sound comes in many forms..visual,physical, aural,mathmatical...etc.. hoep this helps :)

[WokAndRoll]

your voice is sexy ;)

[dxtr123]

Can you explain how to use reason to set up a vibrating effect on a insturment sample? Its difficult to discribe what Im talking about but it is a very common thing in Techno.

[KriKoVa]

I think u can do this with the red button near the play button - while this button is activated you can change effects live - so you can use the variable functions to do your vibrating effect... i hope this will help u

[cojak007]

use the lfo

[eazy187]

im lovin the sample..where did you get it?

[Virre5]

thanks man! that was great. good that you took it slow and explained everything that you did. please upload more of this tips & tricks in reason! :)

[Metatronicus]

I like that intro track , transformer sample, kind of youth sentiment.

[Metatronicus]

Thank you very much man. This is a very usefull tip.

[people4people]

bored i want to know how to make vocals go crazy with the vocoder

[optronix001]

Ive been wanting to do that...so I will make my next video about JUST THAT!!! :)

[people4people]

o nice one man!! ill look out for it :D

myspace com /nebinyourface

my music if you care to listen?

[people4people]

way more fun making your own drum beats using reaosn loops is really cheap man n e one who does it needs to get out of doing it soon!

[abcdille]

TIP: you can disconnect wires by letting them falling down! It's faster! :)

[ghettomienboi]

so ur sayin dat u take basic sounds dat comes from reason and convert into sumthin very different???

[ghettomienboi]

where do you get all of those beats??

[optronix001]

I program them myself mostly..using a vast library of drum sounds..If I ever use drum loops I usually alter them to the point of ridiculousness so they don't sound like the original drum loop anymore. Its more fun to create from nothing!! I say. Thanks for the question!! :)

[lowkeys100]

thanks man for the video nice you take your time and we can realy get some understanding whats going on good job keep it up
