  • "everything can do with a bit of funk..." the man is genius.

  • This is great news.

  • @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. :)

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

  • @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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • @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.

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

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