so i'm thinkin of downloading Reason 3 or 4.0 i watched a tutorial on it on youtube... and it looks fuckin sick as hell... but is it really worth my time?????

Is this some sort of recording studio of sorts?

yeah its a program where u can make beats like your in front of a mixer n stuff like that the outline of it is fuckin dope cuz the GUI of the program allows u to drag a cord from one mixer to a compressor on the program its sweet but i want more knowledgeable folks to tell me if its worth my hard drive space or time...

if that's true then I may partake in this

It is. You can make some good joints on Reason. I like FL Studio more because it's what I'm used to, and it's a lot more fun to mess around and still come out with good shit. For Reason, you need a keyboard plugged in through a midi outlet on your PC to run it. If you want to make beats and mix, then yeah get it. You may want to try a few different programs first though, see which one you like the best.

dammit...I sold my keyboard a few years ago...I need a new one
and maybe a drum kit or somethin'

u can download drum kits online... and i don't have a keyboard... thats one thing that i lack...

I Say Reason 4.0 Is Your Best Bet, And You Don't Need A Midi Controller To Use It. I Have All The Popular Programs You Can Think Of, And Reason Is The Best One For Making Beats For One Reason, It Is So Simple To Use. Fl Studio Is Great But It's Difficult For A Beginner To Understand (Unless Your Using Loops) And Find Yourself Depending On Adding Too Much Effects (Which Uses Too Much CPU). Reason Works How You Think It Should, It's Professional Grade, And That's My Preference. I Occasionally Use Them All Together In Cubase Through Rewire To Achieve A Certain Effect, But Rarely. I Think You Should Stick With Getting Reason 4.0. Also Usb Midi Controllers Are Cheap, You Could Get A Decent One For Less Than $200.00. I'm Not A Dope Beat Maker And Have No Instrumental Background, But Here Are A Few Original Beats I Made With Reason 4.0.

damm those are some good beats i might dabble in this shit

these beats just sold me i'm glad i'm downloading Reason right now... do u still need the loop kits or does Reason come with them????

It Comes With A Factory Sound Kit Which Is Mostly Individual Samples And Some Loops. But You Can Download Thousands Of Kits (Which Reason Calls Refills) Online, Just Use Google Or If You Know How To Find Them Illegally Then There You Go. You Also Can Use Any Sample Or Loop That Is In Wav Format. Hope This Helps.

yeah it does man helps me a ton!!! i'm downloading the ISO for Reason right now... its easy for me to crack a program to make it legal just have trouble finding loops n what not haha...

I think help would come in thru outlets here...im lookin foward to hearin more of ur work!

how fucking can i make beats... gimme the site free download like that

^^^ how u gonna put together a beat when u can't even put sentences together that make sense
