This video shows how you can organize your productions with a template. Reason 6 is what I use, but even if you are using another software you should try to keep things organized as it will increase your work flow.

Organize your mixer channel tracks, your sequencer tracks, the rack etc. You can use groups, colors etc. Having a clean and organized production template will make producing music that much faster, more creative and most importantly...Fun! =)

can you share a template file of this setup? please!

@TryptTube

Hey! =)

I can make a template yeah. This exact one has sounds from refills so it won't work to share. But I will try to cook up a similar one and post on my website. =)

I gotta catch up Mike. Been a couple months since I have tuned in. Been busy in the preliminary stages working on a new album with a friend of mine.

@mastamnd

Np mate. New album?! That's awesome my friend! What kind of album is that?

//Mike

[mastamnd]

@peakeleven HIp Hop album. A little different from what is popular nowadays. It will be a motivational album that I think will appeal to a wide range of people. Positive messages in it that we hope will change lives!

@mastamnd

Awesome! Spread the love and not the hate my friend! =)

You should check out Destorm here on Youtube if you have not already. He really spreads positive energy. His tracks are full of motivation.

@peakeleven Destorm.. Ok. Will definitely check it out. I have not heard him before. Thanks!

[mastamnd]

@peakeleven Totally agree. I have used most DAW's myself but Reason has always been my first choice even though you couldn't record audio until Record came out. I have Logic too but I use that mostly for post production and mixing. Don't record too many vocals nowadays but did it a lot a couple years ago. I will be using Logic to mix and master the album I told you about. Can't wait because I have learned so much about mixing and things like that the past 2 or 3 years. Thanks again!

I have 3 new tracks I upload last week. Called 'Action', 'Mob' and 'Monster'. Not sure if any of these will make the album but I really like these beats.

[mastamnd]

Hip Hip album. Not even sure of the title yet. But a friend of mine who raps was in a real bad car accident about a year ago. He wasn't even supposed to live through it but he's back on this feet and ready to tell his story and more. Not sure of the title yet.  Keep you posted and it should be done by this spring.

@mastamnd

Yeah, I know what you mean. That's why my tracks sound better now than when I used Cubase. You can get total control of everything in Reason, the rack, the sequencer, the mixer. Using colors, placement, lanes etc. :P
