I have a problem with my Reason. The problem I have is that when I put more than one Instrument things (am I a complete beginner btw) into the rack then only the first thing will play. e.g. if I put in Thor onto the rack first it will work, but when I put something else in and start pressing the keys it says there is a noise but I hear nothing. What is wrong? Do I need to change a setting or something like that? Because I have no idea. And I am using Reason 5 btw.

@PenguinMLG create a mixer first. Then all your instruments will be routed through it and they'll be audible. This info is in all the manuals.

[PenguinMLG]

@MonsieurMosca Okay, thanks a bunch mate, works now. Wow, I must sound like a retard. Haha.

Hi Mattias. Awesome tutorial, the pulveriser sounds good. So does the signal go through the compressor last? On a side note, I really like your track "creating a couple." Thanks for sharing.

@tkarmakid Hey! In this combinator the signal goes through the MClass compressor last, yes. You can also use the channel strip compressor if you want or skip it all together. :)

Can you use a USB guitar cable to record guitars? Or do I need to use a mic and amp?

[anosoumusictube]

@XzXP3NGU1NXzX The best idea is to use a dedicated audio interface and plug your guitar into that. We have built-in amps and effects in Reason so that part's not a problem. USB cables requires you to create an aggregate device on Mac or use ASIO4ALL on PC.

I thought after "Hi" he was going to say he's Dave from Boy-In-A-Band :P

[Eyngii]

can i do this effect in Reason 5? I don't have Reason 6

[anosoumusictube]

@Eyngii Kind of. It's possible to use a filter and then use a Compressor (take the gain reduction CV out to control the frequency) or Scream 4 (take the aut CV output). It's not as easy and will give you some different results as you need to actually enable the comp/scream effect to get the CV signal — Spider Audio helps.

[Eyngii]

@anosoumusictube ah okay thank you :D i'll try it ;)

Can you do a tutorial on how to make this lead synth ?

[anosoumusictube]

@TheMiLjaN95 Do you mean the lead synth from the track at the end of the video?

[TheMiLjaN95]

@anosoumusictube Yes, the one that starts at 5:19 .

I was picturing you wearing a big pair of star shaped sunglasses and a sequined catsuit while you recorded this.

This is great. I'd love more howto's on live instruments, and for next versions, more effects that work well with live instruments.
