  • This is cool, and also he's right, I've never had Reason crash on me. Ever.

  • Dope.

  • hey james you must to buy a Record software.In this video in min 5:49 Export Song as Audio File is inactive. :)) anyway thanks for the tutorial it help me.

  • Wow, I totally hadn't thought of this :-D.

    Nowadays we even have time-stretching, so you could actually create a session per song of any artist you like, with a Trigger Finger locked to an NN-XT for one-shot samples or combinators with gating and glitching/beat repeating effects. I am definitely going to try this!

  • great tip number 24

  • Seems reasonable...although beat-matching is slowly becoming a thing of the past.

    It might even be cheaper to purchase ReCycle and save any of your completed songs as .Rex files and control your cues through the Dr. Octo Rex.

  • @settlewade would love to see this too!

  • Hi James, I'm Andy. I noticed a Vestax style mixer in in the diagram at the beginning of this tutorial... I wonder, will there be a day when a USB turntable (like something from DJ hero) which could be mapped to a sample and therefore enable scratching...?

  • Thanks James, I would love to see a future one regarding remixing or adding acapella with your own loops and sfx.

  • nice music James :D are you gonna come to europe ? would love to have you as a teacher :D
