Thanks for your vids, they are very informative and you definitely know you stuff. Can you please provide some advice on the actual computer you are using. I recently bought Reason and an Akai MPK61 and am suffering serious latency. I have therefore resided to the fact that I will have to buy a new pc but am just wondering if there is anything I should know or is it just a case of buying the latest i7 cpu with 8gb ram etc? Cheers Dan
@1KeelHauler There is no problem with your pc. Infact you have a damn good pc. What you need is a seperate up to date usb sound card. That will definitely cure your latency problems.
@smiegtbeatzdh if you had reason 5 and this midi controller you might understand. reason 5 can do way more than an mpc. only thing it can't do is timestretch. that's why you get record1.5 and the timestretch is probly better on record than an mpc homie. just sayin
@dvsn23 , yea I have worked several years with reason and midi controllers, still , it takes away the creativity because you have too much choise.. an mpc makes u a whole lot more creative
im usin a MPC 1000.. can anybody tell me how to hoook it up tp reason 5. i have tascam usb 2.0 audio/midi interface.... thts now synce to midi keybord. casio wk-3000.. any help?
Reason and Pro Tools together produce the best results. Especially with Boom for PT and the Xpand2 synthesizer. Take a look at my Pro Tools Reason setup and video showing how to use the two together.
Hey, have you guys seen the Windows 7 equipped StudioBLADE keyboard workstation? Its perfect for running all your favorite Windows compatible software and plug-ins! Click the link below for videos!
hey. I'm using reason 5. And I have a midi keyboard (behringer umx 490). it works very well but when I want to record something it doesn't work. can you help me?
hey man i noticed you're using the mpd 16 i was wondering if you give me some tips on how to go about setting my mpd16 up as a controller , i cant seem to figure it out.. thanks
yes nice vid and i have reason 5 and record 1.5. I tell you what Propellerhead change my life into postive way with music all day. Peace I have a vid on youtube. Type in piranhas eating shrimp. Look for fortgreene31. The beat you hear in that vid is a beat i was working on early this summer when i first bought Reason 4.0. I got much better with it now. Soon i will upload a current beat i work on.
i have an mpc synced to reason through a midi keyboard, but the mpc pads don't trigger the corresponding pads in kong. anyone know how i can change this?
hey thanks for all the awesome info!!! can you tell me how to set up reason 5 and my roland mv 8800 so i can use reason a a sound module? what setting do i need to set up in reaSON??
i'm not going to flame you for using the MPD16...but wondered how you set it up for use in reason 5, mine makes noise but all of the pads are ass backwards, am i Just missing something is there a setting I need to know? if you have any insight it would be most appreciated. dope vid by the way!
nice vid show the creativity of using the new kong. I work with nothing but propellerhead programs and i love it. I love it so much that it change my life into positive. I don't run the streets no more. I be home chilling with my family getting my dr.dre and havoc on. Peace

MPC? were the fcuk is the mpc????????? an mpc is an amazing peice of all in one studio in a box portable hardware with an incredible workflow that requires no mouse clicks.
All i see is some muppit with an MPD and Reason 5.
By the way no offence but you'r description was VERY misleading!
the drums are sick in there, i cant seem to get the 'free' reason 5 update tho? i bought it in that time where u wud get it free, i got the record 1.5 update but thats it... any ideas on what i shud do?
very good vidio, i have a question, i'm a trance producer and i have the reason 4 in my mac, do you think that is better for trance? i think the only i like is the snare generator
Everybody thanks for replies. @mixxinmel Sometimes i use Regroove mixer - add some shuffle or velocity randomize, to make sound more "MPC-played" like.
whoever said that the Reason Sounds are cheap sounding should just go out to Guitar Center and play around with an MPC then the Reason Sounds. You will see the difference. Plus you can only load so many samples in an MPC but in reason and KONG you can layer till your heart desires. Im talking bout multi samples on ONE PAD, NIce Tutorial on demoing the sounds. But he only touched like 0.1% thats in the soundbanks. MPCs are gonna be replaced no doubt. And I love MPCs!!!
To be honest I dont really understand why somebody needs device like this MPC if you can program all these beats manually through the key roll. Maybe you can give me some explanation about this? Is it really helpful or just like a toy?
@Karnnos Bigger buttons in a format designed for sampling. Key's are ok, but if you need 4 keys along you might slip. This you won't slip! they touch sensative so you don't need push them down like you do a key!
Don't get me wrong, i use a keyboard. I don't have the doe for an MPC... Unfortunately.
@Karnnos Hey K i use the Akai MPD 26 cause i used drum machines throughout all my career. Step Recording as you suggesed is too stiff and mechanical to me. i love the volicity and ambence you get with playing the drums live. Thats why i think so many people use Midi controlers. How are you expressing yourself with heart felt grooves if your just drawing in key roll.
@Karnnos It makes making music a lot more fun and it's inspirational and can give you more idea, and some people are more used to the MPC than sequencers.
@Karnnos Depends on your workflow. It's fun so it can be easy to play around and make beats (as you see me do) rather than have to plan it out in your head in advance, then remember it as you transpose it from your brain to the computer.
@joshmolina3 Nope, I've had it for a long time. Ever since I saw Joe Hahn from Linkin Park use it and thought "I need one of those!" without realising it was a dumb MIDI controller that had no sample-storing ability.
I have since learned to read descriptions of the things I buy.
I do have an MPC1000, but it's packed away in my You and What Army touring case. Hence I figure since more people search for MPC and an MPD is pretty much the same thing when it comes to live pad performance, it makes sense to put MPC in the title :)
@wwwboyinabandcom well its not jus me sayin this hahaha n yea i remember u sayin that u had an MPC in one of ur videos n i also did think u may have put MPC to get more views but in the end i jus thought i would comment anyway cuz it seemed kinda odd to me hahahaha!!
@wwwboyinabandcom also when we gonna get some more indepth tutorials bout Reason 5 cuz this was cool for people that dont have it but for the people who do it kinda sucked n iv been waitin for some great tutorials from u for a while???
