@privateer9116 Месяц назад

Thanks Beyun and Reason! I really love seeing other artists explain their modes and methods. My very first live rig was run off Reason 2.5 (back in 2004!), so well before any external VST support etc. But it was just so stable, particularly for the time. These days I chop and change between Ableton, Mainstage, iPad (Drambo/AuM), and pure DAWless, all sequenced from a Squarp Hapax, but this has me tempted to fire up Reason again and see how I like it.

@pdxfun4888 Месяц назад

What a wonderful display of ingenuity. Develop a setup if it doesn’t exist. This is a perfect exmple of know your gear and not looking for a magic piece to solve , what appears a deficiency. My ancient ass still hasn’t figured out how to sync an old sequncer/drum machine linn9000 to Reason. Ive seen some people just hand play the pads or play a small Bar pattern and just copy. I’ll keep looking online… Thank you for giving us a peek at how elite musicians think and work.

This is so beautiful than all work of all people sync together into one person live stream, this is like time travel, aaaand this is so good that we have it.

@touchthatdial Месяц назад

Great video and explanation. You have a broadcaster’s voice! Beautifully done. I have to say it is also the single most complex process I’ve seen other than Beardyman (whose rig is a whole other level of complexity). I learned a lot from this and I’ve been a Reason user since v1 and I’ve also used Elektron gear for a few years now.

The Reason Rack deserves it's own dedicated hardware. There's not much else I would change about the Rack and it's sonic potential I just feel it's begging for a more tactile experience. Imagine creating combinator patches to be used with a dedicated Reason Rack hardware 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

@audiomon Месяц назад

Finally, something really useful for Reason. I will have to watch it a few more times to digest fully how to couple it properly with the Elektron boxes. The obvious thing that I am missing ATM is the external MIDI clock. Thank you for the insight!

@Farull Месяц назад

That's an impressive setup! I'm trying to do something similar, but I think the missing piece for me is the Multiclock. I use an RK008 as a MIDI hub with clock, but adjusting the sync on each individual port is a bit tedious. I want to be able to jam DAWless as well as recording into Reason which makes the setup a bit more complex.

@HOLLASOUNDS Месяц назад

Interesting and I dont think I have seen a Reason set up like this before, this must of been the result of lots of expanding and experimenting over time.

@dingstr Месяц назад

love the setup as i saw the Rotterdam-Session! I run a similar Combination of external Hardware and we´re doing also synched live Sessions with it with other Musicians. But i using it a little different, because i have an selfmade Hardware-Midiclock (which i assign in the Settings > Sync > Clock-Sync IN") and use the Koshdukai-Maps & -Lua-Codecs, so that i can record every Note and Automation on every Channel at once in Reason. This works without Advanced Midi, because i register just new Midi-Controllers (Koshdukai) in the Settings which have a fixed Midi-Channel - when i assign this "Midi-Controller" to a Track in the Timeline it makes it possible to record ALL Tracks at once. I also assigned my Akai-Midimix fix to the SSL-Mixer, so that i can Dubmix 8 Channels with 3 Send-FX each live. So Reason is great to use it as an Live-Instrument on one Hand, and at the same time it´s my Recorder for all live Jams which gives me the opportunity to fix Automations (or whatever) for every Instrument in retrospect. 👍

@dingstr Месяц назад

here an example with 5 other musicians which are in synch because of the Clock (by the way: i have a Click on Audio-Channel 3+4 so that the Audience never hears a Click) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HFmN92dykC0.htmlsi=lcpLV2H5RwpslVXA&t=88

Ok just started watching this and am in complete awe! Especially when you get into the Python scripting as well 😮 And have wondered about a rock solid config to use Reason live. But def feels like a geek solution that works. I was more heading towards using Reason for sound scaping and dropping loops into something else (Logic Pro Loop Grid) but maybe this gives a few more safe options when live.

Lol. Got suckered by the title. Thought this was about hybrid in the analogue/digital (mixing) sense (with outboard). Didn't even think about using external sequencers. Nice setup.

@jeno.javori_music Месяц назад

Great Video , I am wondering connecting a Roland d2 Groove box as pattern sequencer and using Megamix mode (mixing mindinotes with / and patches sending Midi Sysexfor Reason Combinator for patch change. And using any midi mixer for controlling combinators.

@mcal27 Месяц назад

Excellent work! Especially the scripting! Curious though why a Beatstep Pro would not work in a slightly less elaborate way with Reason and do everything you use the Electron for?

@beyun303 Месяц назад

You can certainly use the Beatstep Pro. 😊 I had my Elektron gear, which I've used for many years, and I'm super used to the Elektron sequencer (pages with multiple lengths, conditional trigs), which is far more advanced than the Beatstep Pro (which I've used, but don't own). Additionally, the Octatrack can send program change MIDI, set up scenes, complex chains of patterns, etc-such a POWERFUL device. I use these more advanced features later, but didn't cover them here. I originally started my live set journey going DAWless, but I ran into a few things: 1) my "sound" requires a lot of lush effects, which I didn't want to buy a bunch of expensive pedals for. 2) I was disappointed with the Octatrack's sound, which completely ruins certain samples. 3) I missed having Analog Lab with me and didn't want to buy (and maintain!) a bunch of vintage synths and somehow store them in my tiny studio. By that point I already had the studio workflow setup done between my hardware and Reason, so moving to using it for a live set made sense.

@mcal27 Месяц назад

@@beyun303 Thanks, yes that makes perfect sense :) I’m old (skool lol) I had the Elecktron Sidstation when it was released, but the output was so noisy you had to have a gate on it so it would cut the output when it wasn’t actually playing! I should try some of their other instruments sometime. Thanks again :)

@amos660 Месяц назад

@jfroines Месяц назад

I def need to spend some time on better understanding all the MIDI routing functionality of Reason. My current ideas are more about external triggering rather than external sequencing, so I'll be leaving Reason as sync master, but I need to sort out how to have many different controllers sending midi notes and other data all at know and have them trigger different Reason devices, and making them switch control between Reason devices/combos on the fly.

hi i want to know if i can use Behringer Xenyx QX2442USB in reason controlling the equalizer and faders from the mixer thorugh reason as it is usb is that possible ? thanks for reply in advance

@dingstr Месяц назад

Hi, only if your Device sends Midi-CC - i can´t see that it does. I use the Akai-Midimix, you can also use the Novation LaunchcontrolXL and shurely some othes Midi-Mixing-Controllers. When you assigned it in the Settings Midi-Section you can right-click on the Reason Mix-Console assign it to your Midi-Mixer. Then right-click each Knob/Fader/Poti you want to control. Don´t forget to save this to a new Default Template, so that you have always this functions, when you create a new Song

@brandonroskom5890 Месяц назад

@djsilent01 Месяц назад

Ryan, this is a grid video. But can you find someone that can do a video to setup a hybrid for outboard gear for the DAW side? I.e. to run the daw out into hardware and run it back into Reason to use something like an External comp, eq, or Coloring box. Well, a current video.

@Ilikethatmusic_typebeats Месяц назад

Why no one have a video about analog outboard mixing in Reason? How to use multiple compressors , Eq’s or effects on one single track..

@deekay5695 Месяц назад

Nice Setup, but why don´t you use the Midiclock Audio-VST to use Reason as a Masterclock to control Reason & all your external devices? Then you can also use the Reason Sequencer Midi Lanes in sync to control your Hardware in parallel.

@martianearz1806 Месяц назад

@spacepluk Месяц назад

After adding a virtual midi port it's not connected to anything. How do you map actual devices to the virtual ports?

@beyun303 Месяц назад

The virtual MIDI devices are only used for locking the recording lanes, so you can simultaneously record multiple lanes of MIDI information. 22:07 explains it. Physical MIDI devices are added to Reason in the usual way in Preferences > MIDI > Auto-detect surfaces. MIDI devices are usually automatically recognized and appear in the Easy MIDI Inputs list below. To send MIDI _from_ Reason, you use the "MIDI Out Device" instrument in the Rack. To direct MIDI from an external device to a specific instrument in Reason (which has a locked recording lane and player with Direct Record enabled see 24:17), you use the Advanced MIDI Device in the Rack 02:30

I hope Reason makes more live performance tools in the next version. I think reason as a DAW is just too perfect not to use for live performances.

yes, the Midi-Out-Device shoul be like the Combinator, so that we could control differnet CCs on the external Device :) But also it would be important that Reason sends (and saves) SysEx-Infos

No, the more important aspect of a live setup is: RELIABILITY. Latency is pointless if your audio interface drivers are crap. It's why RME rules. Then you have the reliability of Reason itself since tryin to integrate VST. Reason was 100% rock solid before that.
