When creating a chord progression, I recommend a strategy called "shopping for emotions". There are many tools out there to assist those of us who are not gifted instrumentalists, one of which is the Reason Studios Chord Sequencer. Let's look at how to use such a tool in practice & set ourselves up for some beautiful techno arps.

these reason players have been life changing for me, lost the use of left hand and these are like disability assistive devices making music possible and fun again! randomly checked the reason site last night to see if anything was new on m1 compatibility but bought this without even watching a video, its exactly what I need, I'm having fun combining it with the arp and note echo with it. think I might do a video about the disability angle of the players to hopefully spark more ideas over in Sweden.

2:35 is so important. There are a lot of people in the electronic music all over the genres. They do that for more then 20 years and very well, They cant play any instrument even today. IT is not nessassary, most important, is the joy of lerning about how and doing it. Thats and practice is all you need.

This is a fantastic plugin for learning and getting you so far but it will eventually hold you back. because you will get to a point where you will be playing too many straight chords all the time. there are a lot of musical pieces that have a lot of inversions as well as other ways of playing straight chords and sometimes you don't have to play all the notes at the same time you can stager the notes that make up a chord and play each note individually any way you like to a certain pattern this will also learn how to play leads as well. You would never find out or even try these techniques out with this plugin. the best way how to learn chords which is the easiest thing to learn. is to get a good chord book learn all the chords and keys and experiment with not just straight chords but inversions the lot. you can also buy Synthesia and slow it down and look what notes are playing and study how chords and songs are put together you will be very surprised how clever some of these chord progressions are and leads. you would never learn that with this plugin.

You can try out a $1 Reason+ trial to see if it is for you, which includes he Reason Rack VST/AU that can be opened in any DAW. Reason+ includes The Chord Sequencer, Bassline Generator and other Player MIDI FX. None of the mentioned are included in a full Reason 12 DAW purchase. You have to purchase those as rack extensions afterwards, or subscribe to Reason+: reasonstudios.com/ You can read more about the Reason Rack plugin here: www.reasonstudios.com/en/reason/rack-plugin

@@thevalueofn6994 Thanks to "Value of n" - I went to the REASON homepage and saw the "special offer" of 54€ for the Chord Sequencer and on top 74 € for the Bassline Generator which Oscar also presented very nicely. I'm a Reason User since version 3 in 2005 but changed to Ableton for playing live in 2008. Since about 2010 I hardly used Reason any more but I suported our swedish friends at Propellerhead by buying 3 Upgrades during the years. I think the new price policys at Reasonstudios are NOT reasonable to me --- If I buy a software for 399 these players should be on board - just my 50 cents... Especially as Reason is nowadays more or less a VST Plugin for my favourite DAW for me. Kind regards 🙂

Hey there Jack. This is because, for us, Reason isn't just a random collection of individual plugins, it's an ever-expanding rack of gear that *works* together where the sum is greater than the parts. Whilst we totally understand if that isn't for you, we just wanted to explain our philosophy a little. PS. Reason+ is a good way to dip your toes into the Reason-waters, you can get your first month for just $1 which gives you access to everything.

False alert it seems like, I just heard back from Reason support - apparently it's included in Reason+, but it doesn't get installed by default. But yep I bought one year of Reason+ subscription. When I didn't find it in my rack browser, I went hunting on the site, and found it in the shop, with the 74 EUR price, or an option to download the trial. I downloaded the 'trial' and it worked fine, and I assumed this meant I would lose access to it at some point. Reason support says we either need to install it from there, or the companion app. None of this was particularly clear to me through the whole process though lol. To me it seems odd for a new and flagship feature not to just be installed by default, but oh well 😅

definitely NOT infinite chords. You get a small assortment of curated chords -- and those collections are very narrow in emotion -- and yes you could add your own, but if you're adding your own, you already know chords and don't need it.

extremely unhappy with how this plug-in was designed. first of all all of the names of the cord sets in the presets are completely meaningless. many of them don't even suggest any sort of emotion. the next thing that bothers me is it's really just a big curated collection of chords that in the opinions of the people who put together the plug-in sound good together. if you use the court explorer it takes me in directions that I would never use. I really thought this was going to be a more parametric way to explore chords in other words choose a key choose a mode and then you tell it whether you want the cords to feel more or less tension more happy or more sad etc. it does none of that. it is not algorithmic. you're stuck with the chords and cord sets they gave you. and before you suggest that you can program in your own chords, if You know chords well enough to program in your own, you don't need this plug-in.
