Ultimately I'd love a system where i can use synths like reaktor/absynth/korg's ones (vst's i meant) AND reason all in one, easily too!
I gather logic is the only solution? or is Ableton able to load up instruments from Reason? |

Yes, I often use Reason as a Rewire Slave to Ableton & it works quite well.

your kidding!?!?!?!??!?!? can you send me a snapshot of how reason/rewire interacts with ableton, like does it come up as a seperate window i.e. malstrom appears alone in ableton?
would be very interested to check ableton out instead of logic for sure!!! |

Okay... I am not so computer-sophisticated as to show you a snapshot but I'll tell you how it works. Basically you open up Ableton first & then you open Reason..Then you "arm" a track to record, setting the input to "Reason Channel 1". Then in Reason, you just create an instrument & wire that instruments output to Reason's Audio Out module at the top of your rack (you can create a mixer but it's not really necessary when using Reason as a REWIRE slave). Then you can either Transmit Midi from Ableton or use Reasons Sequncer (easier) for midi recording & editing which is clocked to run in time with Ableton's sequencer. VERY EASY. Logic can do the same thing. Logic is very cool but kinda expensive (however, trust me, you will spend the same amount of money in the end just in smaller segments & will still end up probably ownling Logic eventually, if you want to pursue professional work. I don't own Logic but will probably at least have to know how to use it if I want to pursue any kind of "sound design for visual media" kind of job. It is all going that way. Ableton Kicks Butt however.

was going to say, hold down apple-shift and press 3 to take the whole screen, or 4 then press space, to go for the individual components of a snapshot.

QUOTE (prosthetix @ Feb 21 2006, 02:28) would be very interested to check ableton out instead of logic for sure!!! You might try the tutorial on the Ableton website at: http://www.ableton.com/index.php?main=tuto...ials&sub=reason I know that it's Reason 2, but the logic is probably the same. Also in this month's Sound on Sound there is a section on rewiring Reason into Live. There's also tutorials done by Computer Music mag. I'd also check out the Ableton, Sound on Sound forums as there is a lot of advice and experiences there. Vince |
