New In Reason 3.0
The Combinator
It's not an effect unit. It's not a synth. It sure isn't a sampler.
It's... all of it. And more. The all new Combinator is a sophisticated
device that allows you to build elaborate chains of Reason units
- instruments, effects, pattern sequencers, you name it - and
save as Combi patches.
MClass Mastering Suite
Want big, tight, loud sounding tracks? Need extra stereo width,
increased clarity, punchier bass? Say hello to MClass, the new
mastering suite in Reason 3.0. MClass brings you four separate
pro level mastering units designed to add power, presence and
an overall professional feel to your Reason mixes.
Play your Reason system! Coupled with the Combinator, the new
features in Reason 3.0 - a fresh sound library, an enhanced browser
and the new Remote protocol - turns your rack into a very livefriendly,
very playable instrument.
Remote
For those of you with a more hands-on approach to making music,
the revolutionary Remote technology in Reason 3.0 will be a welcome
new feature. True hardware integration!
3.0 Browser
With the Reason 3.0 browser, the task of finding and loading sounds
and patches becomes just as smooth and intuitive as the process
of making good music in Reason.
3.0 Soundbank
Reason's sound palette is getting bigger, better, wider and wilder.
The new sound bank in Reason 3.0 adds huge quantities of instruments,
sounds and patches to Reason's already massive library. Focusing
on carefully sampled musical instruments and useful Combinator
setups rather than loops and beats, the new soundbank takes a
more playable, more performance- friendly direction.
Line Mixer 6:2Line Mixer 6:2 is a simple but effective 6-channel
stereo line mixer. Built primarily for use in the Combinator,
the Line Mixer 6:2 handles basic mixing and panning of Combi devices,
but can of course be inserted anywhere in Reason: use it for submixing
large drum kits, or to add extra mixer channels when Reason's
main mixer is starting to fill up. Each of the six channels feature
level and pan controls, mute and solo buttons plus an AUX send
level control. Need more sends? Extra channels? Just create another
Line Mixer.
What Is Reason?
Synthesizers, samplers, drum machine, ReCycle-based loop player,
mixer, effects, pattern sequencer and more. As many of each as
your computer can handle. Reason is an infinitely expandable music
workstation on a CD-ROM, complete with its own realtime sequencer.
Less fuss, more freedom
As a Reason user, you can forget about the downsides of music
production. Forget malfunctioning modules and confusing connections.
Reason's cables don't tangle. Forget about steep learning curves
and menus within menus. Reason is so direct you'll learn it in
minutes. And forget the tedious process of gathering all the different
disks and soundbanks needed to load up a song.
And so is the sound. The audio quality is everything you would
expect from the people behind ReCycle and ReBirth. But pristine
sound quality is only half the story; the instruments and effects
in Reason are loaded with character and attitude. Reason will
not just impress, but inspire you.
All the controls you need
Each unit in Reason's virtual rack is edited from its own on-screen
front panel. All the sliders, knobs, buttons and functions are
right in front of you, ready to be tweaked, turned and twisted
in absolute real-time. And all your front panel actions - filter
adjustments, pitch bending, gain riding or panning - can be recorded
and automated in the Reason sequencer.
Need more gear?
In Reason, you will never run out of rack space. No problem. Choose
a synth, a drum machine, a loop player or any device from the
Create menu, and it will instantly appear in your rack, logically
patched into the signal chain. And because Reason is designed
to go easy on your computer, you can repeat the process until
you're more than happy. If you ever wished you had eleven samplers
and ten compressors, Reason is definitely for you. And if you
have created more machines than you have mixer channels, just
create!
