The midstream switching can really retard your production, like in a profound way. Best to get a taste of everything when you're just a pup, pick one, and just go with it.<br /><br />I know people that are like, I'll start on Reason and then when I understand everything, I'll switch to a better daw. I'm like... Facepalm.<br /><br />For some reason this has turned into a post about Reason! haha jokes, but of all the daws, I find it to be the least relevant as we move forward into the future.<br /><br />I recommend just putting reason down entirely, and forcing yourself to work in live now. You will take a hit, no jokes about that, but when you discover the creative potential of Live's session view... Reason will seam like a tricycle to your Lamborghini.nowaysjnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79694713182351835.post-24195180817166182222011-03-31T05:29:12.607-07:002011-03-31T05:29:12.607-07:00I used to be a hardcore Reason user - absolutely l...I used to be a hardcore Reason user - absolutely loved it, but really felt the restrictions after a couple of years. After trying pretty hard to get mt head around Live, I've hit a bit of a standstill, where I've ended up both creatively and technically stuck between Live and Reason, unable to make my mind up, and slowly losing my memory of the latter and getting frustrated with the former.<br /><br />Dangerous situation.Hayzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04539696088569550360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79694713182351835.post-12457729517736314472011-03-30T12:49:54.759-07:002011-03-30T12:49:54.759-07:00Mistayif, that is true, but Ableton's bundled ...Mistayif, that is true, but Ableton's bundled effects are far superior to Reason's, both in terms of sound quality and creative potential.<br /><br />And the mere fact that you do use three third party vsti's is really the point. Those are your chosen devices, even though it is a minor set of the total potential vst synths. <br /><br />I too may only use even just one synth, but it is the synth that I choose to use. That ability to choose is at the heart of the openness that vst technology enables, and Propellerhead denies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79694713182351835.post-43122443375584215992011-03-30T09:52:12.148-07:002011-03-30T09:52:12.148-07:00Ever since I read that Rob Sparx uses Ohmicide, I&...Ever since I read that Rob Sparx uses Ohmicide, I've been wanting to pick it up.

I like th...I agree with everything you've said. I like the hardware style design and faux CV routing you can do and I think some of the synths can do pretty nice things. However it's so fucking hard to make a track sound good if you're using only reason. Any mixdown I've ever attempted in Reason has sounded kind of flat and it's really hard to shake the general Reason sound. It just often sounds cheap and souless to me. However I have heard great music and been told it was done on Reason so you can work round that I guess.Wolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06729789972245977213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79694713182351835.post-9024112996405765782011-03-28T03:15:03.155-07:002011-03-28T03:15:03.155-07:00i used to use reason, it is a very good and capabl...i used to use reason, it is a very good and capable daw, has a set of very good synths and decent effects. the one thing that annoyed me the most was the fact that it couldn't handle audio files so working with samples was a nightmare. its probably solely this factor which made me switch to ableton. <br /><br />i don't see the lack of vst support as a big issue as i only use 3 third party synths anyway (sylenth, massive, albino) and most the effects i use are the stock ableton ones<br /><br />good post tho and interesting readmistayifhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06520889204149481687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79694713182351835.post-85814343630336445782011-03-26T15:24:17.535-07:002011-03-26T15:24:17.535-07:00yeah, i'd only think about abandoning Reason i...yeah, i'd only think about abandoning Reason if scream had a VST version... i mean really, there are so many that come close and then just fall flat for me<br /><br />again, great read, i'm starting to really look forward to your postsSub Radar (Mike)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15558160466204000617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79694713182351835.post-5405539518461636292011-03-26T10:25:12.964-07:002011-03-26T10:25:12.964-07:00Great content in your posts as alwaysGreat content in your posts as alwaystotalresulthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18020111037308839718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79694713182351835.post-17490582200482389652011-03-26T07:01:42.340-07:002011-03-26T07:01:42.340-07:00Great stuff, I look forward to the ableton post as...Great stuff, I look forward to the ableton post as that is probably the next option for meRotund Alfredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14005223163925022131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79694713182351835.post-7472335105647910212011-03-26T04:52:35.492-07:002011-03-26T04:52:35.492-07:00these posts are fantastic, so much effort. bigup y...these posts are fantastic, so much effort. bigup yourself.VersionDoublehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09217120557086162181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79694713182351835.post-31739054774957586002011-03-26T00:54:46.820-07:002011-03-26T00:54:46.820-07:00Good post, i'm backwards and forwards between ...Good post, i'm backwards and forwards between Reason and ableton at the minute.
