Reason Beginner's Tutorial 1

[freestyle856x]

"CPU usage limit" whats the normal number?? In my Reason is 80%. Is ok?

[WH0MP0]

thanks man! I appreciate this tutorial.

[virdi1992]

The audio and video quality may have been bad but this has to be one of the best beginner videos for reason on youtube so stop hating

[strangebeard11]

Very useful man. Just taking a look at reason and trying to get the hang of it. This was a nice first tut, very clear. Have subscribed and will be following.

[partagiumx]

when i press the little play button on ReDrum it makes no sound?....why?

[G3org3Master]

Its an OK tutorial, actually yeah I think it is good that you don't tell the exact things to click so they have to think about it and remember easier later on (after they found out what to click). Such as the analog sequencer, I didnt know you needed to click the 1,2,3 etc for each instrument. when found I learnt :D

[MrDnbForLife]

CAN SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE?!?! - Ok, i got reason 5 and when i make a combinator with a bass patch it plays fine. when i minimise that one and create another device/combinator no sound comes out of that one, anyone know how i fix this?

[blacknighted]

i dont have a mini keyboard



[MikeTehV]

cheers man! and awesome ending. yeah.

[amibrainwashed]

you would think a tutorial about audio engineering would have better sound quality.

[foshiz95]

@amibrainwashed its 2008 lol

[scotto132]

@amibrainwashed it's youtube compression; brutal.

[ebballer12]

thanks bro



[TViener]

great tutorial!

[tomjacksonguitar]

thank you so much ! 

[gbennett1987]

This was helpful thanks, oh and F**K "Techno" electro, house, and trance anyways, no one wants to hear that shite!!!!!!

[FunkafizeProductions]

Confused as fuck. Needs more of a BEGINNER tutorial

[jackieblam]

@FunkafizeProductions this!! it's more like intermediate

[kevinius2]

Dude, if you are making a 'beginner' tutorial, start with starting up the app...

[G3org3Master]

@kevinius2 learn how to use windows first, he aint doing a tutorial on that.

[nozy03]

Thumbs up and subscribe, hope you do more tutorials. You do it step by step and I like that. Cheers mate keep it up!

[ratface071394]

Finally, a tutorial that doesn't have some pothead I can't understand. Lol

[thejarrell12]

appreciate the help just bakk off the damn mic

[thejarrell12]

appreciate the help just bakk off the damn mic

[TheStewart1995]

when i make the bass thing starting at 8:30, i drag them out and press play but there is not sound coming out, how do i get it too play?

[MikeTehV]

@TheStewart1995 edit > preferences > page: audio > audio card driver: anything that works, keep trying until it does

[Leichendealer]

09.42 yeah :D

[DienesOly]

you?? rock? :))

[manosman97]

Anybody please help?I bought and installed reason 5 but i can't get my intruments to work!When I click one of them on the list I hear nothing...

[ascetic43]

@manosman97 I don't have reason, but with any DAW software you have to route the audio to where you want it. Do you have a good sound card? Monitors? An interface module for instruments or dj stuff?Start by opening the preferences in both Reason and your OS system preferences, go to the audio section in your sys-pref and make sure it's connecting with Reason, and likewise in Reason's audio-routing section. Cheers.

[JovanRam]

great tutorial but please get a better mic,everytime u say p's n q's it's annoying

[w00ts0n]

Good tutorial, but the volume of Reason was WAYYYY too loud compared to the volume of your voice.

[x24mccoy]

thanks for the tutorial! i'm just learning about this program and this is very informative.

[MonimosOros96]

what the hell am i doing here? i have fl studio lol

[djsufferthing]

I will give you fifteen dollars to get a pop filter for that microphone. -_-

[dubproductionlogic]

surely you don't use that template everytime u make a song, cause not all song need to be master the same dat is bad

(just had to point it out) lol

[OnlyRandomShit]

Thank`s 4 a great tutorial :D

[Krono306]

some begginer type stuff you make bruh lmao

[devalaci]

Thank you so freakin muchh!

[LaChancho2013]

don't ever call a keyboard crap....no matter what keyboard....ever

[FortGreene11201]

thanks for the info. I would love for you to explain and show as well working with the combinator and spider. Peace

[jawyanw]

do u need record to create beats in save them

[alanbananaman]

very good mate. Just use a pop shield next time :)

[CodyRicheson]

@alanbananaman, that's the word I was looking for. Your s's and p's will sound awful without one. Still, this tutorial is great.  I'm an FL Studio freak, and have only recently tried to experiment with Reason. I was totally lost but this tutorial helped greatly!

[dondred]

yes

[dondred]

yes



[MrJackanthony]

If this dosen't show Im a beginner nothing will..Reason for can be a vst host yes?

[tsjokke]

NOW THIS IS A TUTORIAL TY SOOOO MUCHH!! haha so good

[5950caps]

i don't have any prefrences under edit

[whoisflowfatal]

you have to do something about the beeping sound in the background and step away from the mic,lol

[danielkirk1]

is a midi keyboard absolutely necessary to use reasons instruments? Can i just use the Midi pattern editor to make patterns? Obviously this guy uses his c keyboard... Wish i knew how, any tips thanks :)

[TurKdiRty]

@danielkirk1 should work normally, just make sure the midi track in the track view is set to record

[danielkirk1]

@TurKdiRty Thanks, i actually found a computer keyboard prog on the net, all problems solved.

[matthewgroen]

Thnx man you helped me and i thinnk alot of people, tomorrow i need to go to a music college for the first time you helped me alot!

[CidVishus]

oscar...the guy is trying to teach us something, musical theory is in a different room... geeeez

[TheFishWalking]

thnx but ur mic made my speakers howl..

[KevODundas]

What's with the haters? You try to help people out....! Thanks man, I learned a lot!

[rjsmc]

i wish i had a key board

[MrHaardstyle]

thank you so much. this is by far the most helpful video ive ever watch for reason 4. thanks heaps!!!!

[HHMuzik]

Thanks. Great introduction to Reason.

[happygofloppy]

WHY DOES NO ONE EXPLAIN WHAT THE FUCKING DIALS DO!!!

[gizmodzine]

@happygofloppy - play with them and find out !

[thestrokes35]

HOLY FUCK TAKE A STEP BACK FROM YOUR MIC 

[Smittz1230]

@thestrokes35

Turn your volume down.

[XrisSmiles]

yeah ive saved this vid in my playlist, cause it was helpful

What i like best is u get straight to the point, & u dont ramble about things i dont care bout.

[tomasbarao]

The microphone sound is awful, but the tutorial is cool, easy to follow.

[SarahNation]

Pop filter... Please... Thanks for the tutorial though. Very helpful

[blackxthink]

The mic is pissing me off ,sometime it's too low , and sometime it just make my speaker explode.

only watching this video cost me $600 of speakers

[tcw00]

oh my fucking gosh

[hankevans83]

man im in no doubt that reason is a powerful tool, but it looks simplez compared to fl studio, i mean i got vst plugins that look more complicated!

never the less i gotta learn how to use this as i just applied for a digital musician college course, and im sure they will be using reason there?/

[jurgenrusseill]

ann

oying

[chriscashe]

Thanks a lot for posting this. Most tutorials start rambling on and on about how their life was before Reason, how their life changed because of Reason, what they're eating while using Reason, they go to the bathroom during, what they're doing afterward, they introduce their family, or anything OTHER than talk about Reason. Yours was was informative and helpful, thanks alot!

[joneric777]

you need to get a pop filter for your microphone. $20

[s11121sx]

Dam ! i am new with this D: and my redrum thing says it plays but i cant listen any sound ): help plz? i have checked my laptop volume preferences and neither get a sound of the reason's vst ; but it plays any other right

[89lampie]

@s11121sx You need to make sure you've got the devices' gains up and routed correctly in Reason dude. If you can't do that then you shouldn't be using this program lol Tip: COMMAND (Windows Button) + TAB will flip your racks in Reason and you can check the patching is all correct on their....

[s11121sx]

@89lampie

thanks but i am such a noob ; it was something in preference > audio and then choose the audio thing :D thanks anyways

[Gerjann93]

THX MAN!!!

[sicklefudge]

[TheCrunkSkunk]

[AurisDJ]

[xxxpiratestevexxx]

Excellent video, really helped me, 5 stars

[NicholasHunterTV]

Where didd you learn this? This vid is super helpful but I was just wondering where you got your knowledge from. A reply would be so great :) thanks!

[oscarfc3s]

i fuking hate it wen ppl use the word "techno" fuk that! theres a BIG difference from electo house house trance FUKK!! SAY IT RIGHT. THANK YOU:) LOL

[tcw00]

@oscarfc3s i agree

[TheseYeahThese]

@oscarfc3s

fuck off.



[Winst0ned]

@oscarfc3s lmao stfu, all the people who gave you thumbs up have obviously never used reason before he was refering to techno kit which is a part of reason. I am all for referring to electronic music in their correct genre and saying "techno" pisses me off too. Next time you should actually be familiar with the subject you are talking about

[oscarfc3s]

@Winst0ned ok, your right then....REASONS has the problem of just putting all genre sound kit in just one? yeah...look at fl? fl does have a "

techno" kit. and for your information i have REASONS 4 ;)

[technofr3ak100]

@oscarfc3s dude respect, i hate tht

[djsnipa1]

@oscarfc3s I totally agree with you, but I think he said it because of the "techno" folder in the drum kit sounds list.

[oscarfc3s]

@djsnipa1 as i can see ur a dj, BIG respect for djs. :)

[djsnipa1]

@oscarfc3s thanks man! much appreciated! :)

[Aversie]

@oscarfc3s All sounds the same man

[oscarfc3s]

@Aversie hmmmm... you F A I L for sayin that xD

[Aversie]

@oscarfc3s Nah i don't. Its my opinion, stop crying..

[badeggss]

@oscarfc3s, I own reason 5 and hes saying 'techno' because its the name of a patch for the drum machine dickhead, so i fucking hate it when people complain about shit they dont even know about FUKK!! SAY IT RIGHT. THANK YOU:) LOL

[KelleyBates]

@oscarfc3s well he could just say electronic music in general :P

[gaspar30]

@oscarfc3s stupid pretentious kid, is music, what's the difference, if ppl enjoy it.

[DrCrazies101]

@oscarfc3s who cares anymore?... I sure don't

[may111992]

@oscarfc3s well its all sorta the genre right? i thought it was called fag music? lol

[SocialConnect1]

@oscarfc3s I know what you mean, I take all my time to make electro house and my dad calls it Techno and it's kinda offensive

[HxCdancingisforfags]

@oscarfc3s I hate when people can't spell.

[Sharpshoota75]

GREAT STUFF

[Jenn3100]

WOW thanks i started Reason like a week ago and your video helped me out alot!

[GeromeMouawad]

PPPLEASE PPPUY A NEW MICRO [nice tutorial anw]

[udappkumara]

you don't need to have a MIDI Keyboard guys... i use my Computer Keyboard as a Midi Keyboard. but if you have Keyboard with a MIDI cable, just use it.. its awesome

[TheArtisticVision]

how did you enable your computer keyboard to be used as a midi controller?

[Smittz1230]

@TheArtisticVision

Did you ever find out how?

[TheArtisticVision]

@Smittz1230 nah dogg

[DeadrockStudios]

@TheArtisticVision Bomes Mouse keyboard, look it up



[RielWoodBoards]

@TheArtisticVision It's in the window tab. Press F4. By now you probably already know this. Haha, sorry.

[MrTeeman22]

@RielWoodBoards You helped me :P

[DanualMusic]

Do I Have To Have A Midi Keyboard Or Is There A Piano Roll??

[Garytherapgod]

Thanks alot dude, helped me out exactly where i was struggling

[amethystcentaur]

Your intentions are great and what you say is right-on but your hardware is worthless. I put my speakers up quite a bit so I could hear you. You need a windscreen on the mic and some volume normalization. When you hit the synth I am glad I have expensive speakers or you would have blown them. As it stands you scared the shit out of me. Fix this crap or get it off here.

[gerky03]

i hear ya amethystcentaur,,,DEAF!!!!

thanks for video though, usefull

[goose911911]

Quite a good video tutorial. I am new with reason and this helped. Your mixrophone is absolutely pissing me off though. Stop spitting into the mic and breathing so heavy whilst recording.

[RazorCutzProductions]

i cant hear any music, can someone help me?

[RollAnotherJ]

that happened to me but i cant remember what it was that i did, i think i just played around with the audio options, if i figure it out ill let you know.

[hidalgoalejandro]

great!

[ARMALITE77]

cheers for this.i have tunes in my head and this has helped.

[nozy03]

Oh and also i look forward to seeing part 2! :)

[nozy03]

Thanks alot for taking the time to make this. I cant seem to get my midi keyboard to work either :(

[Baldoak]

Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video.

I'm especially glad that you used the synthesizer manually. I don't have a midi controlling device, and so i'm trying to manage my way through this program as much as i can. Other tutorials haven't really explained how to do things the way you have.

Thanks agian! :)

[NinjamanMcr]

Excellent, clear and detailed. Cant wait for PT2 and PT3.

Thankyou Bencheddar2 (yoda)
